Practicing Presence: The Heart of Fire

Practice presence and experience the Fire element firsthand in this dynamic workshop. We are nature and embody each of the elements. According to Chinese Medicine, the energy of the Fire element regulates the heart, our interpersonal relationships and intimacy with life, the movement of emotional wellbeing, and most importantly, Fire is consciousness itself, or Spirit.

If the Spirit is calm and clear, we radiate a relaxed and effortless joyful presence. If the Spirit is agitated or imbalanced, we can get overheated by passion, thrown off by excitation, or burn up like a wildfire.

In this workshop, learn about the qualities and aspects of Fire, how it expresses through you in body and mind, and best practices to bring balance to this element and stay cool in the hot summer days ahead. No prior experience is necessary and beginners are welcome.
