Please join Cynthia Li, MD for a special vernal equinox session with Teacher Wei Qifend  — part conversation, part qigong consciousness practice. Teacher Wei is an esteemed teacher of Qigong, an embodied consciousness practice developed in China over the past 5,000 years, and the foundation of martial arts, tai chi, and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Based in China, Teacher Wei has become a pioneer in bringing Zhineng Qigong to the West, with students across Europe, Australia and New Zealand, South America, and America. The lineage of Zhineng Qigong (zhi means wisdom, neng means capability) aims to describe the laws of the universe and human life, informed by Confucianism, Daoism, Buddhism, medical qigong, martial arts, folk qigong, contemporary science, medicine, and philosophy. At its core is a sense of universal oneness. Teacher Wei has been highlighting the development of the pure consciousness state as his foundational teaching, with the qigong movements guided from this expanded mindset to amplify healing and awakening. This highest level of practice, he says, from a collective field where practitioners connect heart to heart in a state of pure consciousness, has the greatest potential for deep transformation, personal and global.
