Dr. Hu's workshop this Saturday (Jan 27th) is on “Sensory- Motor Awareness”. Here's some information about it...

What is “Sensory-Motor Awareness”?  Simply speaking, we are going to show you the basic technique of how to feel the qi, which is ever-moving inside our body.

There are many ways to cultivate our sensitivity to qi.  But from my own life-long experience, I consider the training of “sensory-motor awareness” the number one priority in  building a solid foundation to be able to sense the qi-flow in our own body and in our patient’s body. The reasons are as follows:  1)  It’s a fact that qi is ever-moving inside our meridians, and the location of everyone’s main meridian is the same.  2)  It’s also a fact that physical movements, and especially the circular movements used in Wild Goose Qigong can influence the direction of our qi-flow, making the tracing of the “qi movement in lines” even easier.

In this workshop, we’re first going to explain the inter-relationship of sensory-motor awareness, relaxation in motion, and the flowing of qi.  Then, we’re going to practice 7 exercises for cultivating our sensory-motor awareness.

1)      Practice: “Tracing the 6 Hand-related Meridians” Qigong;
2)      Practice:  “5 Centers Meeting Each Other” Qigong;
3)      Practice:  “Wild Goose-IV” (“Tripod & Spiral  Qigong”);
4)      Practice:  Movement-induced Micro-Cosmic Orbit in Wild Goose-I;
5)      Practice:  Wild Goose “Gong-Cheng” mantra;
6)      Practice:  “6-syllable” mantra;
7)      Practice:  “Guan-yin”, “Golden Light”, & “Burning Candles” mudras.

Dennis will not be holding his Tuesday class at Ocean View Park on 1/23/07 or on 1/30/07. Class will resume on Tuesday 2/6/07. Dennis will start teaching classes at Yoga Within in Aptos during the first week in February.
