Director of the Institute of Integral Qigong and Tai Chi
Dr. Roger Jahnke, OMD
Tuesday, December 5, 2023
Invest in yourself and your own wellbeing this season as you embark on a proven path to personal transformation that harnesses ancient Qigong practices designed to help you cultivate the profound healing intelligence of your “heart-mind” –– your mental-emotional self.
Level up from surviving to thriving ahead of the New Year using simple Qigong practices that can be easily modified throughout your lifetime to enhance your wellbeing.
What if the most profound medicine ever developed is actually produced within your body and mind?
In ancient Chinese tradition, this inner medicine is Qi — a primordial creative power that can be harnessed to balance and enhance your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health — offering you inner peace and bringing you into alignment with your true potential.
Given this innate natural power, imagine how your life could change if you learned how to wield your Qi to mitigate stress, soothe your emotions, calm your mind, activate inner healing resources... and align with your essential self.
In the face of life’s complex and often stressful seasons, including the approaching holidays and new year, the transformative essence of Qigong is a superpower! Qigong has been developing and refining for thousands of years, and is flourishing today as a profound yet accessible practice for restoring our functional balance and accessing inner resilience.
According to Dr. Roger Jahnke, OMD, doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and director of the Institute of Integral Qigong and Tai Chi, this ancient practice can be your sanctuary, guiding you to simplify your perspective and anchor yourself in the present moment...
... as you align with the millennia-old wisdom it holds to stabilize your emotions, neutralize distractions, clarify your decision-making, and elevate your compassion.
As we enter the introspective winter months, a time traditionally dedicated to self-renewal, Qigong can serve as a vessel for recharging your inner batteries and channeling balanced energy into your daily life, offering a path to lasting vitality and a profound connection to your body’s innate healing potential.
By embracing the seasonal rhythms and the time-honored traditions of mindfulness, gratitude, self-reflection, and physical embodiment, Qigong can lead you on a journey toward holistic wellbeing. It can keep you centered amid the complexities of the holidays and the ever-shifting seasons.
The Qigong methods Dr. Jahnke will be teaching were designed to navigate the dark days of winter and prepare us for the renewal of spring. You can use them now to create your own path toward lasting vitality and a profound connection to your body’s innate healing potential.
To fully access the potential of Qi, however, you first need to harmonize the Three Treasures that create the inner coherence you need to support your natural functional capacity: mind-body – spirit. Dr. Jahnke tells us that this begins with the cultivation of the heart-mind, or shen in TCM...
... the blissful divine spark within us that synergizes communication between the brain and heart, governs the health and function of all organs — and opens us to our deeper spiritual potential.
Wellness is the best gift you can give yourself during this and every season... as healing ourselves ripples outward to our families, communities, and the world.
During this powerfully healing course with Dr. Jahnke, you’ll activate your Qi and learn potent Qigong practices that harmonize your mind, body, and spirit, allowing the profound medicine, inner peace, and divine intelligence that exists within you to permeate and enhance every cell — and inspire new possibilities.
As a master teacher of Tai Chi, Qigong, and mind-body practice, Dr. Jahnke affirms that regular Qigong practice can help you revive, rehabilitate, and redirect yourself toward your highest possible expression.
His approach to healing synthesizes over 40 years of clinical practice as a physician of acupuncture and TCM — and teacher of the Four Dimensions of Qigong: body practice, breath practice, mind practice, and self-massage.
He teaches that weaving these practices together integrates your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual self into an authentic expression — which is the basis of healing...
... and creates an accessible path to whole-being transformation that can be tangibly felt as you cultivate a practice that aligns with your true self and your goals.
Each of the seven sessions in this course will include three practice segments: an entry meditation with the soothing Temple Gong... a simple yet profound practice that can be done in a few minutes... and a 20-25 minute practice session that explores the four dimensions.
Prepare to be amazed at how a few simple moving meditation practices can support you in developing a personal path to relief and empowerment.
During this transformative course, you’ll:
- Discover Qi, the hidden power within you — and how to activate it for natural healing
- Unlock the power of the integrated Three Treasures — mind-body-spirit — the foundation of Chinese Medicine and your “golden elixir” for profound healing and physical and emotional wellbeing
- Explore practical techniques for enhancing and sustaining your functional capacity — Qi — elevating your overall health and vitality
- Learn simple yet powerful Qigong practices that heal the organs, balance your energy, calm your mind, maximize function and vitality, soothe the heart, mind, and energy body, and more
- Learn the 5 methods of simple and effective self-massage — press, stroke, tap, hold, and non-touch Qi massage
- Experience how to use self-massage to direct your Qi to the parts of yourself that need healing the most
- Optimize your Qi through movement and breath for integrated function of the blood system, immune system, neurological system, and elimination system
- Enhance mental awareness and emotional stability with deeper cultivation of the heart-mind
- Learn to practice interoception — radical self-observation — and how this new science confirms the relevance of ancient heart-mind cultivation practices
You’ll experience Dr. Jahnke’s most revitalizing and uplifting techniques for harmonizing the Three Treasures that can help you invigorate your Qi and shift out of rigid, tense, and stressed physical, mental, and emotional conditioning...
... and into a calm yet energized state of being that fosters clarity, peace, greater mobility, and enhanced intuition.
You’ll discover movement as a form of meditation that can alchemize mental and emotional stress and recycle this energy into a more expansive frequency that can nourish your entire being and awaken your greater potential — and the true possibilities for your life.
Dr. Jahnke teaches that Qi is the functional component of any system — and that Qigong is the accumulation of skill over time. Qigong is therefore something that a person can do on a regular basis to create a functional body-self.
Imagine how wonderful it would be to become a conscious creator of your own health, capable of generating and directing Qi...
... and optimizing your own vitality by mobilizing energy flow and using all of the inherent resources that are available to you.
Why not give yourself the gift of mindfully navigating the complexities of the coming holiday season, and prepare yourself to launch a new year like never before?

Prepare yourself for the holidays by exploring the secret of personal transformation and healing... and how the most potent medicine for healing and enhancing your life exists within you.

This week, you’ll experience the extraordinary power of Qi for navigating stress and initiating transformative change. ..

They also learned that simply modifying the pace and depth of the breath also has a multitude of positive influences on one’s physiology and emotional state.
This week, you’ll put this wisdom into practice as you explore how intentionally modifying breath patterns can enhance your sense of energy and aliveness.
You’ll experience the dynamic relationship between movement and breath as the engines of Qi and functional integration — and how this synergy enhances optimal function and vitality, balancing what the ancients call yin and yang Qi.

— Linda, Surprise, Arizona
“Have finally cultivated a practice!”
I am spending more time in present-moment awareness! I feel taller as I frequently adjust my posture! Sleeping better. Have finally cultivated a practice! Took earlier courses but didn’t practice — other than the 3 Treasures, each time they came to mind. I was fascinated with the knowledge part of the courses initially, but this led finally to my putting time aside daily and practicing/playing with what I learned ... as well as creating new, fun exercises for myself!
