Finding Dynamic Equilibrium - Developing the Shao Yang
An Inner Qigong Workshop with Bill Palmer

Saturday October 8th, Frome, Somerset

Emotional equilibrium has a physical foundation in the way in which the body balances itself, the way in which muscles collaborate and the way in which the nervous system creates dynamic equilibrium.

This one day workshop will focus on the how to be aware of these physical aspects of our ability to balance complementary energies and will develop a form of Qigong that activates these capacities through movements initiated by the meridian pathway called the Shao Yang.

This work focuses on learning to feel the elasticity of the fascia and letting that connection guide the release of muscles to create graceful, open movement. Emotionally this gives a feeling of being expansive and open to the world while remaining centred.

Also, for people in Europe and Australia, we have a new programme of extended courses in many countries. See http://www.seed.org/courses.shtml

For more information about the New Programme of Movement, Bodywork and Voicework in 2016 see http://www.seed.org/pg.shtml

seed.org Courses in Movement Shiatsu.

New Programme for 2016!! A programme of Movement, Bodywork and Voicework to develop life skills and skills in working with others.

STARTING WORKSHOP - January16th/17th
Earth and Water - with Bill Palmer & Teresa Hadland
This workshop deals with how we dominate our bodies with our mind - because of how we think we ought to be, we inhibit parts of our authentic self. This inhibition is usually physically performed by freezing a part of the body. In this workshop we will learn to sense these frozen parts, help the blocked energy to be expressed through voice and movement and to find completion so we can come to real relaxation.

QIGONG DAY 1 - February 20th
Connecting Spirals
In this workshop, led by Jonathan Clifford, we will explore how spiral movements help the body to feel internally connected.

QIGONG DAY 2 - March 12th
Creating Space
In this workshop, led by Bill Palmer & Teresa Hadland, we will explore the movements of the internal organs and how their expansion can support the body from inside, allowing muscles to relax.

QIGONG DAY 3 - April 9th
Maintaining Boundaries
In this workshop, led by Bill Palmer & Teresa Hadland,, we will explore how our energy can expand to make real contact with the environment and other people without being squashed by how other people want us to be.

WEEKEND WORKSHOP - May 14th/15th
Contacting and Connecting: Muscles and Fascia
In this weekend workshop, led by Bill Palmer and Teresa Hadland, we will explore the sensation-feeling of the fascia and connective tissues. We will see how it provides our sense of integrity and how its elasticity can create ease and flow in our movement.

QIGONG DAY 4 - June 11th
Blocks to Authenticity
In this workshop, led by Jonathan Clifford, we will explore how emotions such as shame and fear are embodied and how they dampen our energy. Using bodywork and group work we will explore how to take care of these emotions.

RESIDENTIAL COURSE IN DORSET - July 13-17
Touching the Mind: The Bodywork Techniques of Movement Shiatsu
In this workshop, led by Bill Palmer and Teresa Hadland, we will present the main bodywork techniques of Movement Shiatsu. These are accessible to everyone, no experience necessary, but are profaund ways of helping people to become aware of their own anatomy and to take charge of their development.

QIGONG DAY 5 - September 10th
Balancing Self and Society
In this workshop and the next, led by Bill Palmer & Teresa Hadland,, we will explore how to be true to ourselves at the same time as being part of a community. The main resources are how to contain emotions rather than suppress them, how to expand the self to include others and how to value difference and disagreement. These skills come from being aware of how the body tends to contract or tense when you meet disagreement and how to deal with the body reaction rather than control your emotions.

QIGONG DAY 6 - October 8th
Caring and Compassion
See the 5th day.

FINAL WEEKEND WORKSHOP - November 12-13
Using Body Intelligence
In this workshop, led by Bill Palmer, Teresa Hadland and Jonathan Clifford, we will explore how the whole course has given resources for living - how listening to the subtle sensations of the body can help us to have mature and authentic relationships and how to deal creatively with difference and conflict.
