Meridian Massage: Organ Meridians

Prerequisite: Jing Acutouch or any Jin Shin Do® class. Some bodywork experience preferred.

Here we explore the 12 Primary Organ Meridians (what most people think of when we hear "meridians").  You will learn important point groups like Shu, Luo & Source to assist in the balance of Qi flow to the physical, emotional, and spiritual energies of the Organ Meridians.

Jing Acutouch: The Essence of Qi

This class incorporates Eastern/Daoist Philosophy, Chinese Acu-theory, Yin/Yang and Levels of Qi.   Students explore the Levels/Layers of Qi through various levels and types of touch along the meridians and acupoints.  They receive an overview of the Energy Body according to Chinese Acu-theory and learn how to access the "Essence of Qi" through transformation point groups like Jing Well and Window of the Sky Points. To meet someone at their level or "Essence of Qi" can promote release, relaxation, and transformation.

Core Connection: 8 Extraordinary Vessels

Prerequisite: Jing Acutouch or any Jin Shin Do® class. Some bodywork experience preferred.
 
Here we discover the 8 Extraordinary Vessels. These Vessels are bigger, deeper energies in the body/mind, making them our "core" connection to self as well as extraordinary in their role and function compared to more superficial meridians.
