Qi

According to Classical Chinese Philosophy, qi is the force that makes up and binds together all things in the universe. It is paradoxically, both everything and nothing.



Here is a step by step guide to calm your Qi and create flow...

Qi Flow in the Anterior Body Region

  Calming the Qi Flow Through Movement and Mindfulness: 
 
      To begin, make sure you are standing in a comfortable position and place your tongue gently to the roof of your mouth. Taking a breath, raise your arms slowly over your head As you release your breath, lower your arms, bring them in front of your body until you reach your beginning position.

     As you perform this exercise be mindful that you are breathing naturally. During the release of your breath be aware of leading Qi from the top of your head through your centre to the bottoms of your feet.

November 15, 2019 In the spirit of helping our helping profession, I would like to update you and elicit your support in the campaign I launched last year (2018), aiming to address the current lack of medical insurance coverage for federal employees wishing to receive treatments from registered acupuncturists in BC. As the correspondence below illustrates, the present situation reflects an unfair bias against registered acupuncturists – whose services are not covered under extended health plans (SunLife of Canada), while acupuncture provided by certain other professions (i.e. not acupuncturists) is covered.
