Have you had opportunity to practice yoga with Lynsay at Hemma? You can enjoy her flow classes on Tuesdays & Thursdays 7-8am, and Friday 9:00-10:30am.

Qi Gong at Hemma

  • by

Qigong is a practice of aligning breath, movement, and awareness for exercise, healing, and meditation. With roots in Chinese medicine, martial arts, and philosophy, qigong is traditionally viewed as a practice to cultivate and balance Qi.

The class at Hemma is suitable for all, but would be of particular interest to those who feel themselves to have low energy, leading to depression, anxiety and stress. Qi gong is a gentle, yet powerful way to reconnect to your life force and works as a wonderful adjunct to acupuncture.

The 60-minute class is broken down into 3 parts. It is taught by Stephen Potter, one of our Registered Acupuncturists, and is offered every Thursday 12:30-1:30pm.Read More »Qi Gong at Hemma
