Have you experienced seemingly random body discomfort or pain? Or talked an issue through to clarity only to later discover related body tension? Do you wonder what happens to your unexpressed emotions? Are you interested in learning about the use of movement, breathing, sound and visualization as a method for connecting mind to body and relieving tension? Qigong offers insights into these questions - and much more. An Eastern healing-arts system that uses Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to balance the body, Qigong for Self-Health is based on principles of Medical Qigong Therapy (a TCM modality) and helps you explore the deep-rooted connection between your body and psyche. This workshop will focus on the viewpoint of consciousness in TCM, the relationship of consciousness to the physical body, and the physical, emotional, and psychic aspects of each organ.
Matt Hayat Ph.D., MMQ, has been studying the Eastern arts for 20+ years. He holds a Masters in Medical Qigong Therapy (MMQ) degree in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) from the International Institute of Medical Qigong, a sister school of the Henan University of TCM in Zheng Zhou, China, and has taught Qigong across North America and Canada since 2005. Matt has a doctoral degree in Biostatistics from the Medical College of Wisconsin and is a faculty member at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD. He has a private TCM practice near Baltimore.
