Zhàn zhuāng (站樁), commonly translated as "standing post," is a fundamental training method found in many traditional Chinese martial arts and qigong systems. At first glance, the practice may appear deceptively simple: the practitioner stands motionless, often in a posture resembling the embrace of a tree. Yet within this apparent stillness lies a deeply transformative method of cultivating internal strength, structural integrity, and mental focus.

We examined the research and spoke to experts to get to the bottom of the age-old question: Are eggs healthy – or a cause of heart disease?

Autumn is a time of reflection and inward looking as we prepare for for the restoration of winter. When one's mind and body don't follow the natural cycles imbalance easily appears. Acupuncture, Qigong and yoga are all ways to help to accustom your being for relaxation. PM me for a short consultation.

After quite a busy summer in Lesvos and with periodic trips to the U.K to take part in ongoing Qigong training, I am now back in Holargos and ready to begin the new season!

Acupuncture & Sessions

Acupuncture sessions can take place any weekday between 10.30 and 20.30 and are 1.5 hours for the first session, 1 hour after that. I have attached a promotional flyer for acupuncture outlining some of the maladies which can be addressed with acupuncture related therapies. In addition to manual and electro- stimulation acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping and infrared heat lamp as therapies, this winter I will begin offering infrared heating pads (Jade Vitality- jade and anthracite radiant heat) for specific areas- knees, lower back and shoulders.

Please also note that I am still offering my version of Thai massage which often includes other techniques I have picked up through my many years of body work experience, such as: acupressure and joint release. Sessions normally last 1.5 hours.

I also continue to offer private, one-to-one qigong, yoga and men's sacred sexuality sessions which can be one offs or as part of a continuing package as needed.

Classes

Qigong classes will take place weekly on Wednesday mornings from 10.30 to 11.30. Note that this weekly class has changed day from the previous year's schedule.

Yoga classes will continue, as always, on Monday and Wednesday evenings from 19.30 to 21.00. In all likelihood one of those weekly classes will be more for beginners and the other for slightly more advanced students. This will be determined based on participation, so please let me know if you plan to attend.

Both yoga and Qigong classes will begin the week starting 16/9. The first yoga class will be that evening and the first qigong class will be on Wednesday 18/9.

YouTube Videos

Last but not least, for some time now Spiritdome Healing Arts has had a YouTube page which can be viewed here. You will find short videos where I explain and present techniques related to acupuncture. More importantly, however, are the videos which are available by subscription- a list of which you can find below.

It is these subscription videos which I would like to introduce because they cover interesting and important topics related to Taoism, Chinese medicine and meditation. Perhaps the most useful of these videos are designed for client participation. These are qigong (wu xing), internal qigong (nei dan), meditation (three treasures), and two separate warm-up and stretching videos which may be used regularly as daily or weekly practice guides. I am grateful to finally be able to offer recordings of work that, for years, has only been available through private or class instruction. Soon I hope to offer short video clips of these videos but for now simply send me a message if you are interested and would like to have access to one or more of them or if you have any questions about which video(s) might suit you best.
