SUMMARY:Seasonal Self Care | Autumn
DESCRIPTION:Breathe & Release: \nThe Art of Letting Go IntroductionAutumn is the season of reflection\, release\, and inner strength. As the days grow cooler and the air becomes dry\, the Metal Element invites us to breathe deeply\, let go of what no longer serves us\, and draw our energy inward. When this energy is balanced\, we feel calm\, clear\, and resilient. When it’s depleted\, we may feel tired\, heavy\, or weighed down by sadness or unresolved emotion. \nRooted in the wisdom of Chinese medicine\, this workshop helps you align with the Metal Element to move through autumn with greater clarity\, vitality\, and ease. \nIf you missed earlier workshops\, each one stands alone — and the accompanying seasonal eBooks are available to support your ongoing self-care journey. \nThis WorkshopJoin Tania for a day of learning\, reflection\, and gentle movement as we align with the calm\, inward energy of autumn. Together\, we’ll explore how to support the Lungs and Large Intestine — the organs of the Metal Element — through breath\, nourishment\, and emotional balance. \n\nSupport Lung Qi & Immunity – explore how breath\, movement\, and seasonal foods strengthen your body’s natural defences and sustain energy through autumn.\nLet Go & Breathe Deeply – discover breathwork and Qigong practices that release tension\, calm the nervous system\, and open the chest.\nUnderstand the Emotion of Autumn – learn how grief\, sadness\, and reflection express through the Metal Element\, and how to find balance through joy and connection.\nNourish the Body – explore autumn’s best foods and teas for lung health.\nSoothe Dryness & Strengthen Skin – learn natural ways to keep the body hydrated and protected as the air cools and dries.\nPractice Healing Sounds & Movement – experience seasonal Qigong and the healing sounds that support the lungs and help release emotion.\n\nWhat’s Included:\nA printed folder of detailed workshop notes\nMorning and afternoon tea featuring autumn-inspired tasters and nourishing herbal teas\nGuided meditation and a seasonal Qigong practice\nA supportive\, uplifting community of like-minded people on their wellness journey\n\nPlease bring a plate to share for lunch. \nWhat Participants say:\n“I didn’t realise how much the lungs and large intestine work together until this workshop. It made me rethink my habits — I’ve swapped my cold salads for warm soups\, and I’m paying more attention to eating seasonally. The food tastings and practical advice made it so easy to apply right away.”\n“Tania has a beautiful way of connecting Chinese medicine theory to everyday life. Learning how sadness and letting go affect the lungs really resonated with me. The breathing and Qigong practices helped me feel calm and centred — I left with a lighter heart and a clear plan for self-care this autumn.”\n\nJoin Us for a Day of Release & RestoreAutumn invites us to slow down\, breathe deeply\, and release what we no longer need. Join us for a nourishing day of learning\, movement\, and connection.

SUMMARY:Qigong with Master Simon Blow
DESCRIPTION:Da Yan – Wild Goose Qigong\, 27 Movement – Rainy Day Practice The Da Yan – Wild Goose Qigong\, 27 Movement Rainy Day Practice is a refined sequence developed from the first 64 movements of the traditional Wild Goose Qigong system. Graceful\, flowing\, and deeply nourishing\, this practice preserves the fundamental principles and energy-cultivating essence of the original form while offering a shorter\, more adaptable sequence for days when outdoor practice is not possible. \nTraditionally\, Wild Goose Qigong is best practised outdoors in the early morning\, facing west\, with the rising sun at your back. On his many journeys to China to study with Grand Master Chen and his family\, Simon Blow experienced the rhythm of daily practice in this way. When weather turned rainy or conditions made it impossible to be outside\, the Rainy Day Practice was used to continue cultivating Qi with balance\, grace\, and vitality. \nThis workshop offers you the opportunity to: \n\n\nLearn the 27 Movement Rainy Day Practice step by step \n\n\nDeepen your understanding of the Wild Goose Qigong tradition \n\n\nExplore a sequence that can be practised in smaller spaces while still delivering the full energetic benefits \n\n\nWhether you are new to Qigong or already familiar with Wild Goose practices\, this workshop is a rare chance to learn directly from Simon Blow\, one of Australia’s most respected Qigong teachers. \nWhat’s included\nMorning and afternoon tea \n\nBring a plate to share for lunch \n\nMeditation sessions \n\nAll tuition with Master Simon Blow \nBook Now!

SUMMARY:5 Elements of Self Care | Spring
DESCRIPTION:Awakening Potential:\nDetox & GrowthIntroductionSpring is the season of growth\, renewal\, and fresh beginnings. After the inward stillness of winter\, the Wood Element brings a rising energy that propels us into action—urging us to stretch\, detoxify\, and awaken our full potential. But if energy is blocked or depleted\, this momentum can show up as frustration\, tension\, or emotional stagnation. \nIn Chinese medicine\, spring is governed by the Liver and Gall Bladder—the organs responsible for decision-making\, direction\, and the smooth flow of Qi. When they’re in balance\, we feel motivated\, inspired\, and ready to grow. When they’re not\, we may feel stuck\, overwhelmed\, or off track. \nThis is the final workshop in a series of seasonal self-care sessions designed to empower you with practices that align with the energy of the Five Elements—nurturing your body\, calming your mind\, and strengthening your spirit throughout the year. \nIf you missed earlier workshops\, each one stands alone\, and the accompanying eBooks are available to support your seasonal journey. \nThis Workshop | Wood ElementIn this 2-hour spring workshop\, we’ll align with the vibrant\, upward energy of the Wood Element to awaken energy\, clear stagnation\, and support your system’s natural detox processes. You’ll be guided through a flowing seasonal Qigong practice designed to nourish the Liver\, stretch the tendons\, and gently open circulation and breath. \nWe’ll explore the role of food\, movement\, and emotional flow in supporting Liver health—so you can feel lighter\, more flexible\, and ready to grow into the next version of yourself. You’ll also gain tools to navigate spring’s rising energy with clarity and balance. \nTogether\, we’ll explore how to: \n\n\nDetoxify the body and support Liver and Gall Bladder health \n\n\nUse food\, herbs\, and movement to release stagnation and tension \n\n\nWork with emotions like frustration and indecision \n\n\nCultivate vision\, purpose\, and emotional flexibility \n\n\nStep into the season feeling lighter\, clearer\, and more energised \n\n\nYou’ll leave with practical\, embodied tools to help you move forward with ease\, direction\, and vitality. \nWhat’s included:A flowing seasonal Qigong session\, a printed folder of notes\, a cup of warming tea\, and a small tasting of spring-inspired nourishing food to support your experience. \n\nBook Now
