The jaw is tight, the breath is trapped high in the chest, and the nervous system is locked into a low-grade hum of survival mode. We think this tension keeps us secure, but eventually, it suffocates our creative intuition, our focus, and our energy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat is Qigong? At its core, Qigong (pronounced chee-gong) is an ancient Chinese practice of structural and energetic maintenance. It combines slow, deliberate movement, regulated breathing, and focused intention. While often described as a moving meditation, in practical terms, it is a physical protocol for clearing deep tension, optimizing your body's internal circuitry, and bringing an over-clocked nervous system back to baseline. It is the physical practice of learning how to put the shield down.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJoin Rachel Schutt, metal sculptor and Qigong Practitioner, for an exclusive introductory class designed to help you physically clear the static.
