Let Go & Make Space
A Health Weekend focusing on the Lung & Large Intestine in Chinese Medicine
21, 22, 23 October 2022
Mucklagh Lodge, Wicklow, Ireland
In this immersive weekend we will use the energy of the season Samhain (pronounced Sow-in). which falls between the Autumn Equinox and the Winter Solstice to support the body and specifically the organs of the Lung & Large Intestine in letting go and releasing, improving digestive function and allowing space for deeper breathing.
Samhain marks an important turning point in the wheel of the year, a time for endings, the leaves are falling from the trees and the growing cycle for farming is complete. It is a time for turning inwards and embracing the stillness and death of approaching winter.
In Chinese Medicine the organs governed by this energy of Autumn are the Lung and Large Intestine. The lungs absorb the energy from deep breathing and the Large Intestine releases what is no longer needed by the body. The natural Autumnal process of letting go can impact the function of these organs, impacting energy levels, emotional moods and even the physical skin. During this weekend we will learn to embrace the inevitable loss through the cycle of life which leaves space for the new seeds to germinate and grow in the spring.
We will use ancient techniques of Food Medicine, Qi Gong Energy Exercises, Self Shiatsu Acupressure, Ritual & Mantra to heal the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of the body.
Come and experience deep holding and trust with the group. Letting go allows space, when we allow this space instead of filling it, we will experience deep peace and a sense of coming home to ourselves.
Cost €395 – includes all food, tuition, and accommodation
Deposit €95 to secure space, remainder paid on arrival
