5 Day Mandali Experience Special: Awakening through the Body
13 - 17 April 2020What it is
Mandali Experience Special is a program designed for those who want to explore a wider range of classes and get a deeper exploration of themselves and the world around them.Theme: Awakening through the body– Conscious movement with Nishta and Qi-Gong with Mario
Conscious Movement is a meditation practice that resources us for cultivating a more conscious compassionate and creative spirit. Using catalyzing soundscapes, guided explorations and universal movement principles like breath, expansion, release, and ground; we access the sensate body to free ourselves from holding patterns, care for our emotions and make peace with our thinking minds. During these sessions, we will have the opportunity to give these parts of ourselves outer expression through the body.Each session is thematic and can be attended in and of itself as a complete process and all sessions build into one other for a deeper dive and a fuller transformative journey. Everyone is welcome! You do not need any previous moving or artistic experience, just an attitude of experimentation and a willingness to try something new.

QiGong, which combines meditative and physically active elements, is the basic exercise system within Chinese medicine.QiGong movement and postures are shaped by the principle of Yin/Yang: the complementary interrelationship of qualities such as fast and slow, hard and soft, excess or deficiency, external and internal.QiGong exercises use these contrasting and complementary qualities to restore harmony to essential substances, organ systems, and channels. Yin qigong exercises are expressed through relaxed stretching, visualization and breathing, and can be expressed in a more aerobic or dynamic way. They are particularly effective for supporting the immune system. These exercises help to maintain health by creating a state of mental and physical calmness, which indicates that the Qi energy is balanced and harmonious. This allows the mind/body/spirit to function most efficiently, with the least amount of stress.
