Moment to moment

| Anastasiya

Some of you know that besides yoga, meditation and qi gong I do as well card reading for self-insight and self-understanding. I have several favorite decks of cards that I use. Today I am using OSHO zen tarot deck. It is a beautiful deck for self-insight that I use quite often.

Today’s card is “Moment to Moment”. If you have lately been overwhelmed with too many things and too many plans, it is time to focus on what are your preferences right now. So, if you are anxious about future, ask yourself what do you want to focus your energy on today. And do it. You might be dragged in different directions, but ask yourself what is the motivation of doing what you think of doing – the “why”. It will help you to center yourself, to balance. Step by step. Day by day. Moment to moment.

If you need a reading to understand yourself better, do not hesitate to contact me.

What type of Qi Gong I practice and what it gives me

| Anastasiya

I am often asked what is it I am practicing. I will tell you a bit more. As Master Lee puts it, Sheng Zhen Meditation is a method of self-healing, often referred to as “practices of Unconditional Love.” It involves a series of moving and non-moving meditations, all designed to remove stagnant or negative energy and gather positive healing energy (qi). The movements and contemplations of Sheng Zhen Meditation help re-create that deep sense of inner peace we experienced as small children. As the body softens, and negative emotions are released, one experiences a feeling of perfect harmony with the universe.

I have started my practice in 2008. It contributed a lot to the way I perceive energy. Although I have been always sensitive, it made me to notice that sensitivity as I was quieting my mind and opening my senses. For me energy is something very physical – like magnetic field or sometimes like water templated to your body temperature. I feel it in the palms of my hands from myself or others, from plants or Earth. My practice has developed my ability to listen in. What do I mean with it is that I feel/notice/read all possible details, shifts in energy both my own and others – somewhere deep inside of my being.

During workshops in Sheng Zhen Meditation / Qi Gong we learn about flow of energy and self healing, we meditate in stillness and in movement focusing on opening heart and connection to the whole universe. You learn a form that you can take with you home to practice. If you feel that something in your soul moved and you would like to try, come to my classes!
