No matter how well you live, at least once in your life… you’ll wake up with a tense neck. 😅

Instead of ignoring it, I turned to what I know best—TCM wellness.

I started with moxa to gently warm and activate the area, followed by diluted ginger oil to deepen the warmth. Then came gua sha to release tension and stagnation, Qigong to restore flow and mobility, and finally an ear seed on Shen Men to calm the nervous system from within.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, points on the neck and upper back are especially vulnerable to “Wind”—one of the main causes of stiffness, pain, and imbalance. Supporting the body in time can make all the difference.

Following our retreats for Kidney and Liver, the next step is preparing the Heart for summer.

In TCM, the Heart houses the Shen (mind and spirit). During summer, increased heat, activity, and shorter nights can overstimulate the Heart and disturb the Shen, leading to restlessness, insomnia, anxiety, or emotional imbalance.

In this retreat, you will learn practical ways to nourish Heart energy and calm the Shen before the summer season begins.

As the Year of the Wood Snake winds down, we reflect on its lessons of patience, growth, and transformation. Now, the fire within us awakens…

🔥🐎 Happy Chinese New Year!

May the fire in your heart burn bright,

and your passion lead you to bold new beginnings. ✨

Let’s step into this new year with courage, energy, and mindful movement.

The most beautiful part of our weekend retreats?
The women who gather.

This past retreat, dedicated to the energy of the *Liver* in Traditional Chinese Medicine, was more than movement and theory. It was a circle of strength, softness, release, and renewal.

Different ages.
Different cultural backgrounds.
Different life stories.

Yet when we moved through Qigong together — breathing, stretching, opening the sides of the body, freeing the flow of Liver Qi — we were one.

We released stored tension.
We allowed emotions to move.
We created space for new vision.

There is something profoundly powerful about women gathering to heal — not competing, not comparing, but supporting and witnessing one another. No matter where we are in our lives — beginning, transforming, rebuilding, flourishing — we share the same life force moving through us.

Diversity enriches us.
Practice connects us.
Intention strengthens us.

Thank you to every woman who brought her presence, her curiosity, and her courage to this retreat. You are the heart of Shen Qigong.

Until we flow together again.☯️💜💪

🌿 What a wonderful retreat!

A magical weekend dedicated to strengthening the kidneys and embracing the energy of winter through Qigong.

We practiced Qigong for bone health (kidneys and bones are intrinsically connected in Qigong practice), explored the energies and meaning of the kidneys in TCM, and enjoyed a masterclass on essential oils and moxa.

Two days long, all about nourishment — gentle movement, deep restoration, and delicious meals made from local, seasonal ingredients following Traditional Chinese Medicine wisdom.

And yes, we happily accepted the hosts’ invitation to taste their organic white wine — a beautiful way to celebrate connection, nature, and vitality. 🍷

All this to nourish Kidney Yin, strengthen Kidney Yang, and recharge your energy to thrive through winter.

✨ Join us at the end of January to discover how to balance your Liver and prepare for the growth and renewal of spring! 🌱

Nestled deep in the forest, Eti Vinkovec never ceases to amaze — a peaceful haven lovingly built and maintained by our wonderful hosts, Ksenija and Branko, whose big hearts and golden hands make every retreat unforgettable.

What a weekend! 💜☯️
Two days of an intense and transformative workshop with Master Mantak Chia — a living legend and one of the world’s foremost Taoist teachers, known for bringing ancient Taoist wisdom into modern life.

We dove deep into the mysteries and complexity of the female body — exploring the sacred intelligence of our hormones, glands, breast tissue, ovaries, uterus, and sexuality.

The female body is a universe. And Taoism, the foundation of Traditional Chinese Medicine, has held this knowledge for thousands of years — understanding the flow of energy, emotions, and Qi within us long before modern science could name it.

☯️💜 Qigong Retreat: Strengthen Your Kidneys for the Winter Season • Nov 8–9

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, winter is the season of the kidneys — the foundation of vitality, willpower, and inner warmth. When kidney energy is strong, we feel grounded and resilient through the colder months. When it’s weakened, we may notice fatigue, lower back discomfort, fear, or reduced immunity.

Join us for a nourishing Qigong retreat dedicated to replenishing your kidney energy and aligning with the natural rhythm of winter. You will learn how to cultivate and protect your vital energy when the cold months are here — through gentle movement, breathwork, and meditative stillness.

📍 ETI Vinkovec — a serene retreat complex nestled in nature, just a 50-minute drive from Zagreb.

☯️💜 Restore your roots, embrace stillness, and prepare your body and mind for the quiet strength of winter.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, autumn is the season of the Metal element, which governs the lungs and large intestine.

Together, these organs teach us the cycle of receiving and releasing—the lungs draw in pure qi from the breath, while the large intestine lets go of what no longer serves the body.

When Metal energy is balanced, we feel clear, strong, and connected. When it is weakened, we may experience grief, rigidity, shallow breathing, or issues with elimination.

The Tiger form (from White Tiger Qigong) strengthens the lungs and respiratory system, improving breathing capacity and oxygen circulation.

Its dynamic movements:
✔️expand the chest,
✔️release tension from the shoulders and spine, ✔️energize the tendons and fascia.

By enhancing lung function, the form supports immunity, boosts vitality, and helps the body adapt to the seasonal changes of autumn.
