"I left my stressful job and created a new worldview more in alignment with my true self"
Where were you before you started?
I was working a full time stressful job in healthcare when COVID arrived. I have never had issues with panic and anxiety until March of 2020. A friend of mine suggested trying QiGong. After a few classes, I noticed how quickly I could reset my energy and reduce my stress and anxiety. I have been an RN and Reiki practitioner for almost 20 years and I knew QiGong was a game changer. I left my stressful job and created a new worldview more in alignment with my true self. In October I signed up for the teacher certification as I felt I wanted to share this practice with as many people as possible.
Where are you now?
I completed my teacher certification requirements in July, 2021. I incorporated QiGong instruction into my toolbox. I became certified in Healing Ceremonies and am currently creating healing workshops that include QiGong movement to release stagnant energy and emotions to improve the healing process. In addition, I teach twice a week at a yoga studio in an apartment complex and once a week at a wellness center. I look back and honor my corporate nursing career, but that is not who I was meant to be going forth. Qi Gong has helped me to not only improve my level of stress but it has shown me who I am and more importantly, who I am not.
What would you say to someone considering the program?
Lee's program is 100% worth the investment. You have access to not only the content and the teaching, but master classes and a community of like minded practitioners for LIFE. After I finished the official coursework, I started going back through the content for ideas to construct routines and each time I review a previous lesson or class, I gain more in depth knowledge into my practice. At first I was hesitant, thinking I was not qualified to teach QiGong, but by the end of the program, I thought "Heck yeah I am!" The support has been phenomenal. Even if you never teach a formal class after your required teaching hours, the richness and wealth of information is life changing on so many levels.
