"One of the best ways I’ve learned to keep my emotions moving and flowing is through Qigong, an ancient system of self-care and self-healing that combines slow gentle movement, with breath and intention. As a certified qigong teacher, I’ve been practicing and teaching consistently for more than fifteen years and it has changed my life. It can change yours too! Qigong is seeing a worldwide revival right now because it works, it’s easy to do, and I like to say there’s no wrong way to do it!" ~Joan D'Argo, Teacher - Awakening Qigong
