Introduction to Qigong with Lori Chapman Unrau L.Ac

In this one hour class Lori will share basic Qigong techniques to preserve health, calm the mind and enhance well being.

Qigong exercises are a branch of Chinese medicine dedicated to self healing that are in essence a “moving meditation”. Qigong is a gentle, slow exercise performed  standing and sometimes in seated positions to enhance well being as well as increase internal vitality and strength. 

She will teach an introductory Qigong method called, "The Eight Pieces of Silk" in addition to a passive Qigong (Meditation). Enhanced self care includes acupressure and guided breath techniques that are used to calm the mind and create an internal environment for radiant health, balanced immunity, healthy digestion and restful sleep.

Lori currently practices Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine at Acupuncture STL in Webster Groves. She has been teaching and practicing Qigong, Tai Qi and Asian Bodywork for  27 years.
