What is EnerQi YogaTM?
EnerQi Yoga is a synergist blend of the powerful healing systems of Yoga
and Qigong. It is designed to fully integrate the yin and yang of stillness and
movement into one practice that builds strength and vitality while releasing
dis-ease and stress.
Yoga, an ancient practice from India, combines body postures and
breathing to promote strength, balance, and flexibility. Qigong, an ancient
practice from China, combines soft movements and breathing to cleanse
and build the body's supply of vital life energy.
Many of our Western exercise forms are very yang - with an emphasis on
pushing, striving, and overactivity. Much of our lives and our minds are also
spent in constant action. EnerQi Yoga provides an active practice to satisfy
our need to move and strengthen our bodies.
But EnerQi (pronounced enner-chee) Yoga also provides the yin to balance
the yang. Yoga poses are alternated with qigong movements. Each yoga
pose combines physical strength (yang) with the stillness (yin) of holding
the pose. Each qigong movement combines rhythmic movements (yang)
with a relaxed body and meditative mind (yin).
Breathing, guided imagery, and balancing yin and yang are the hallmarks of
EnerQi Yoga. Each session is designed around a healing theme. The
practice will cleanse, boost, and balance your vital life force energy (qi),
leaving you with a sense of vitality, clarity, and flow.
Health is balance. When the body, mind, and spirit are in union with each
other and in balance with the flow of the universe, we reach a state of
blissful health. EnerQi Yoga is a refreshing approach to finding that
harmony.
What are the benefits?
EnerQi Yoga benefits every bodily function and system, calms and quiets
the mind, releases stress, and revitalizes the spirit. Most importantly,
practicing EnerQi Yoga opens up our vital life force energy (known as qi in
qigong and prana in yoga) to allow it to flow smoothly and easily throughout
our physical body. We not only unleash energy blockages, we also cleanse
toxic energy and gather fresh new energy. This system builds the body's
energy reserves so that it will naturally and easily be able to heal itself. And
it just feels good!
What do I wear?
EnerQi Yoga is best performed barefoot, in warm, comfortable clothing.
About EnerQi YogaTM
Lori Furbush E-RYT RMT created the EnerQi Yoga method, after
exploring the similarities between the healing systems of Yoga and Qigong.
These approaches both use the physical body and breath as a vehicle
toward transformation. The core focus of each practice is to cleanse,
circulate, and recharge the body's life force energy for balance and healing.
Both Qigong and Yoga are complete and viable systems of health in
themselves. But when blended together, the sum creates a synergy that is
greater than the parts. Combining the strength and softness of both Qigong
and Yoga creates a powerful healing tonic for body, mind, & spirit.
