    ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

    Resiliency matters, particularly in our complex and changing world. The human body is a dynamic health system that is adaptable and self-healing, with the right practices. Medical Qigong techniques mobilize these capacities, resulting in a strong, sustainable balance of energy in the body. This course empowers you to enhance your own vitality through the regulation of the nervous system, rejuvenating the mind-body connection.

    Through four main units—body postures and movements, self-massage, breathing exercises and mental focus (including mindfulness meditation)—you will learn to access extraordinary self-healing capacities. You’ll learn how to lead these evidence-based practices that can be performed sitting, standing, or even lying down, and we’ll explore how these exercises can be modified for the specific needs of individuals and groups. Feel confident to share these traditions with senior centers, veterans, in hospitals and in other community settings. Whether you’re intending to share these practices, or simply want to awaken your inner healer, this training gives you powerful wellness tools you can use for a lifetime.

    Note: Participation in this training program gives you access to a follow-up online support program, web based membership library, exclusive IIQTC Facebook Group, certificate of completion, and a listing in the Teacher and Practice Leader Directory on the IIQTC.org website.
