SACRED TREE ESTABLISHES HIGH-END INTEGRATIVE RETREATS IN ASPEN, FEATURING HEALING MEDICAL QIGONG AND RENOWNED MASTER LI JUN FENG
These healing events will continue signature series of wellness retreat workshops
Sacred Tree, an integrative health and wellness center in Aspen and Breckenridge, announced today that it would continue its line of signature health and wellness retreats beginning with two workshops in fall:
"FALL EQUINOX" EARTH CYCLES: A PATHWAY TO HEALING" SEPTEMBER 19-21
"AWAKENING THE SOUL: HEALING QIGONG WITH MASTER LI" SEPTEMBER 26-28
Participants in Earth Cycles will discover the meaning and significance of the four winds and the four directions, which are interrelated to the birth, growth, dissolution, and regeneration of being a whole human being again. The experience will also include Qigong and Yoga, interactive presentations, indigenous ceremonies, outdoor nature activities, spa treatments, organic breakfast and lunch. The foundation for the retreat celebrates the four seasons, marked by the equinoxes of fall and spring and the solstices of winter and summer.
Participants in Awakening the Soul will explore the Sheng Zhen Qigong style. Sheng Zhen Qigong works with Qi (energy) to stimulate blood circulation and revitalize the body.
Traditionally, Qigong was practiced to release blocked energy and shift patterns of physical and emotional issues. Master Li Jun Feng is a Qigong master, the founder of the International Sheng Zhen Qigong Society, also is a world-renowned wushu (martial arts) coach. He has also starred-in and choreographed several Chinese martial arts films, with the likes of Jet Li.
Brigette Schabdach, owner and founder of Sacred Tree, who recently trained with Master Li, says that it is an extreme honor to host such a well-known leader who embodies the spirit of this deep and powerful practice. Master Li is truly brilliant. The work he is teaching, the proven effects, message and physical and emotional health benefits of Sheng Zhen Qigong are creating a movement of effective healing, and the power we have as individuals to create change within us and affect those around us, she adds. We are collective beings who cannot only heal ourselves, our families, our communities, but also the earth, which Master Li believes will permeate to the world, she adds. We invite you to join us in our discovery of the body, mind and spirit natural, inherent and powerful capacity for restoration, regeneration and vibrant, energetic health, says Schabdach,
Schabdach, along with Joel Proctor Dipl. L.Ac & CH, co-founder of Sacred Tree and founder of Mystic Warrior School for Integrative Arts, is a licensed acupuncturist, Chinese medicine and herbology practitioner. Joel also is a practitioner of Traditional Indigenous Healing and is a Pipe Carrier. Together, they will present and lead these health and wellness spa retreats, along with additional Sacred Tree practitioners and Master Li.
A retreat or getaway allows people time away from their daily routines and spheres of influence, says Proctor. They are able to find deeper levels of relaxation for their bodies, more clarity for their minds, more time to nourish and rejuvenate their spirits, he adds.
More than 15 wellness health spa retreats are currently offered within the next six months. Future destinations include Breckenridge, Aspen and Tulum, Mexico.
Registration for these signature retreats is open, and availability is limited. The fee to attend each of these signature two and a half-day retreats is: $325. Discounted spa services and lodging rates are available for all participants. All ceremonies are offered freely under traditional perspectives of spiritual responsibilities and reciprocal agreements.
