As the season turns outward…

The shift into spring invites movement. The outer world chatters and our creativity lifts from the quiet winter. We look outward, upward like the grasses, flowers, trees stretching upward to the sun!

Our qi does the same thing - and this time tries to remind us that the contemplative patience of winter is still with us. Spring qi wants to move and can turn into aggression and overstimulation if we forget our quieter practices of watching, and waiting for the proper moment to move forward.

This series, Sensing Qi, offers a space to explore that inner current—to learn how thought, feeling, and movement interact to create harmony or stagnation within the body.

What does qi feel like?

We often speak of energy, but few of us pause long enough to feel it moving within.

Qi, the vital force of life, is constantly flowing—responding to our thoughts, emotions, and physical states. Sometimes it moves freely, bright and buoyant. Other times it slows, tightens, or hides beneath layers of tension or emotion.

In this course, we’ll explore what it means to truly sense qi—not as a concept, but as a living experience within the body. You’ll learn to listen to energy through the lenses of emotion, thought, and movement. Together, we’ll explore how each influences the others, and how awareness itself begins to shift the flow of qi.
