The Alchemy of the Five Elements

Working and being with all five elements we work our way through the Shen and Ko cycles, we discover how the seasons and elements work together, how to balance the elements, which element we identify most with and where we might be depleted or less-identified. We look at how we can balance our own personality and body systems using the Shen and Ko cycles and the elements to develop a self-healing way of utilising all the elements for the fullest sense of wellbeing. We come together with the guidance and nature of the alchemist and begin our journey towards inner transformation.

We look at how the Chi flows through the fascia, muscles and skeleton affecting the body on a cellular level. This understanding helps the mind (Yi) to guide and organize the Chi flow in a more holistic manner. We move through how the elements work together in Alchemy transformative practices.

This is an ALCHEMY workshop in the Elemental Alchemy series:

Alchemy works with deeper chi flows and principles explored and cultivated as an ongoing study. The workshops look at developing a sensitivity to Chi by coming into greater awareness of our energetic body and its physical manifestations. Cultivating emergence of a deep equanimity, opening to Shen – the spiritual aspect of Chi – making the mind still and bright.

In the Alchemy series we cultivate Being, opening to more health, ease and grace in your physical and energetic systems on all levels.
