Energetic Boundaries Workshop
July 2, 2026 9:30-11:30 pt
Have you ever left a public place, family gathering, or conversation and felt drained? Perhaps even anxious, agitated, or just “off”?
Qigong, as a land-based practice with ancient roots, recognizes unseen forces, including the energy of nature, guides, ancestors and angels. In Qigong we can call on these positive energetic forces to support health and energy cultivation. But not all unseen forces have your best interest in mind. Qigong practices also recognize the existence of malevolent or draining forces that can take energy. In some traditions they are called demons, entities, or energy vampires. These forces can exist in both physical and virtual spaces, and can trick us, confuse us, and pull us away from our path. These energies can be seen in the highest places of power and politics, as well as in our neighborhood grocery store.
In this two-hour workshop, you will learn how to better discern negative or draining energies, protect your energetic field, and stay rooted amidst chaos and confusion. We will also learn more about the heart protectors, and the fire element’s role in setting boundaries. This class will consist of lecture, meditation practice, reflection, and conversation. We will also work with practices to call in support, as well as ways to clear and release energy that is not yours.
This workshop is for everyone, though people who work in health care, energy work, or massage therapy may especially benefit from this class.
Please note: this is not strictly a Qigong movement class but rather a class focused on energetic hygiene and protection using meditation, lecture, journal prompts, and conversation.
