Chi Wellness, LLC and The School of Qigong Studies offer a medical qigong practitioner training program for students wish to apply their clinical training toward the improvement of health and well being of self and family members. Please note that this curriculum does not provide the training required to develop the qualifications that are needed to receive national professional certification from the National Qigong Association as a professional clinical qigong healer or teacher. To acquire the skills that meet the requirements of NQA certification, enrollment into our Clinical Qigong Healer/Teacher certification training curriculum is highly recommended. We must emphasize that training in qigong, whether it is for personal or professional reasons, must be undertaken gradually and under the close guidance of a highly advanced clinical qigong healer and teacher (otherwise serious chi deviations that adversely affect physical and emotional health could result). A clinical qigong practitioner is very effective in supporting family and communities with their healing processes if the healer first heals and empowers her- or himself. Graduation from the Medical Qigong for Self and Family Care training program requires the student’s satisfactory completion of the following courses of study with us, totaling approximately 312 hours, typically accomplished within the range of time of 2 to 3 years. At the time of this update, completion of this curriculum incurs the expense of approximately $4305 in total tuition expense. Certain courses may be taken simultaneously.

A Full-Day Retreat to Nourish and Empower the Soul, Heal and Refine Consciousness
The power to heal comes from the wisdom within us. Our Spirit-Soul Connection, the missing link in personal and community healing in Western philosophy and medicine, thrived in classical Chinese medicine and the Taoist lifestyle in ancient times and caused the globe’s civilizations to live in peace and harmony with nature and each other, free of stress, conflict and calamity. This one-day workshop is a powerful retreat in learning and practicing The 5 Constant Virtues within ourselves and with each other through specific qigong, communication and contemplative exercises that support the presence of these timeless lifestyle values of Goodness within us, and their expression through us. Daily personal practice of 5 Virtues Qigong is a challenging and soulful qigong form that unleashes the Soul of the T aoto fully express itself through us and restores understanding, acceptance, balance and benevolence in our world.
Successful completion of this workshop and dedicated deepening of the 5 Virtues Qigong practice also prepares all who desire to help in restoring peace and balance to the earth to engage in a 6-day training retreat, from June 21-26, 2012, to receive certification to share this precious, timeless qigong practice of conflict resolution, inner peace and social healing by teaching this workshop in communities throughout our world.
