Movement is essential to health. Regular exercise of the Western-type is good for the body, while that of the Asian-type is focused on Vital Energy (“Ki” in Japanese and “Qi” in Chinese). Through Asian exercises such as Qigong, the Makko Ho (also known as Meridian Exercises or Zen Imagery Exercises) and Yoga, Ki is developed and the flow of Ki throughout the body is encouraged. At the same time, the physical structure is stretched and strengthened. Finally, some Asian exercises elevate the heart rate, with aerobic and anaerobic training effects. In this Asian Self Care Exercises course, the participant will practice: • The “Lifting the Sky” and “Carrying the Moon” Qigong exercises. • The six Basic Makko Ho, plus those for the Conception and Governing Vessels. • The Five Tibetans, a set of five, active yoga exercises. At the end of the course the participant will be able to perform each of the above exercises, explain the main principles of the exercises, and recount the basic history behind the exercises. The course is intended for participant self-care. It is not intended to teach therapists to teach their clients. If they desire, they should bring a Yoga mat
Prerequisite: None... Participants
should preferably have some experience with exercise, particularly Qigong,
stretching, calisthenics and/or Yoga. Participants should be prepared for a
fairly "physical" four hours.

Acupressure is a healing art based on traditional Chinese, Japanese and Indian medicine. Acupressure is similar to the better known acupuncture in that it treats blockages of energy at specific points along fourteen meridians, or channels, along the body, that wind through the body and major organs, terminating either on the feet or hands. However, the acupressure practitioner uses gentle, firm pressure from the fingers, hands and sometimes elbows, instead of needles, making it much less painful and anxiety-causing for the recipient.
The practitioner
applies this gentle pressure on
specific points in order to relieve pain and discomfort, prevent
tension-related ailments, and promote good health. The purpose of
acupressure is to promote the body’s own healing power and restore
balance.
Acupressure Basic
~ By gently stimulating particular points on the
body, muscular tension can be relieved and endorphins, which help in
alleviating pain, are stimulated. By using the fingertips, thumbs and hands
on these key points, circulation can improve and the body’s immune system is
stimulated. Acupressure, when practiced on a regular basis, stimulates
self-healing and can be a very effective injury prevention and health
enhancing practice. Participants learn to use acupressure to support their
own or another persons healing when experiencing conditions such as stress,
headaches, neck and shoulder pain, allergies, menstrual difficulties,
insomnia, digestive problems, nausea and back pain.
