The Inner Landscape (50hrs) - By Dhugal Meachem

     

some of us have practiced a lot, some a little…

…but all yin teachers and practitioners talk about the importance of Qi & meditation, ideas and techniques.
but can we truly understand these concepts and their relevance to our lives today? in this course we will explore and discuss the most iconic interwoven mandala (or graphic picture) on these ideas and explore their relationship with meditation.

what you will learn & practice

the neijing tu (內經圖 – pronounced ‘nay-jing-too’) is at once a story, a map of qi flow in the body and a visual representation of the mediation experience. we will embrace all of these and weave its themes, its mythology through our asana, our meditation, our theory study.
