We will be practicing the following meditations on this day:
Qi Gong (pronounced CHEE-GONG) can be traced back 4,000 years to ancient
China. "Qi" is simply the Chinese word for energy, and "Gong" means skill that is cultivated through ongoing practice. So, put together, "Qi Gong" means "cultivating the body's vital energy," and then using it to heal and strengthen every system throughout the body.
Vipassana which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. It was rediscovered by Gotama Buddha more than 2500 years ago and was taught by him as a universal remedy for universal ills. Vipassana is a way of self-transformation through self-observation. It focuses on the deep interconnection between mind and body, which can be experienced directly by disciplined
attention to the physical sensations that form the life of the body, and that continuously interconnect and condition the life of the mind.
