"Soul Journey Qi Gong 1- The Initiation of the Heart" is a unique form of Qigong, a beautiful and powerful blend of the wisdom of the East, ancient shamanic wisdom (mainly from the Q'ero shamans in the Andes, descendants of the Incas) and Traditional Chinese Medicine. The method was created by Maria and she shares it in co-creation with Bjørn who accompanies her on gongs, crystal singing bowls and crystal pyramids in the video recording of the method and sometimes live.
Soul Journey Qigong 1 consists of five series of simple, soft, beautiful, slow and powerful movements with a specific concentration for each movement. The movements and the concentration help you connect on a very deep level with the earth, the water, the mountains, the wind, the trees and the universe. You can feel the oneness with the whole of creation.
In this method you center yourself, connect with all the lay lines and water lines on earth and stand strong in your own magnetic field. You fill your body with oxygen and the specific nutrition you need. You connect with the original life energy from the source of life and spread it through the spinal liquid to every cell in your body. By cross-connecting and balancing the two sides of the brain, you create harmony within and open up for your intuition and creativity.
On a physical level you stimulate the circulation of blood and lymph in your body, you soften and strengthen muscles, joints and ligaments and you make the life energy, "Qi", flow freely in the 12 energy meridians that are connected to the main inner organs in your body."
The whole program takes around 40 minutes to practice but you can also choose to practice just one or a few series of movements. The course includes a video recording of the method (made in the Blue Mountain Hall in Oldedalen) in which Maria shows the whole program accompanied by Bjørn's deeply healing music. She also gives spoken instructions to the movements. This is to help you practice the method at home.
