In this Qigong live immersion, we will be enmeshed in the heart of Buddhism in Thailand, where we will stay in the city of temples Chiang Mai. Your instructor Fay Savage-Winter is a certified Qigong instructor with over 25yrs experience in martial arts, Qigong and natural therapies. We are registered both nationally and internationally, so you're in good hands. We are affiliated with NQA and IICT and are partnered with Act Belong Commit.
Sunday at 5.30 pm, we will hold an opening ceremony and welcome all guests, where we will forward your itinerary, followed by a welcome dinner.
We will be offering a mindful walk to a temple each morning, followed by practising Qigong, followed by breakfast.
Quite often, the monks offer blessings on your mindful walk.
Included in this price is a day trip to the elephant rescue/rehabilitation sanctuary, where we will open our hearts in their honour and do a qigong practice among them; these elephants roam freely and will join us on a mindful walk through the jungle as we come into stillness and connect in with nature all around us.
A trip to Do Inthanon, where heaven meets earth, is also scheduled. It is the highest point in Thailand and where you are closest to heaven. We will go on a two-hour treck into the jungle and meet the tribes people and learn about the medicinal plants in the area. Lunch is included with a trip to a coffee plantation.
A day of temple tours where there is meditation with the monks at the waterfall and monk chat if the opportunity arises.
Qigong morning at 7.00am and evening at 6.00pm followed by dinner either at the hotel or out and about. (This is included in the price but please note, if you decide to eat outside of group bookings and go and do your own thing this unfortunately will not be covered.)
There is plenty of free time during the day to enjoy and explore however, the instructor will be in assessments between 10 am-12 pm and 3 pm-6 pm.
The Instructors being assessed will be going to The Dao Gardens as part of their teacher training for a half day to meet the best in Thailand.
This live immersion is suitable for beginners and not restricted to trainee instructors all are welcome.
