Master Faye Li Yip
Tuesday, March 19, 2024
Cultivate the deeper wisdom of the eight movements of Ba Duan Jin Qigong to activate vibrant Qi, harmonize mental and emotional energy, cleanse and balance your physiological systems, and create a cascade of healing and awareness within you.
The eight movements, or brocades, of Ba Duan Jin Qigong can be a powerful ally in helping us understand and heal the true causes of any health challenges we’re facing.
This is why Qigong Master Faye Li Yip calls them the eight treasures, as the full extent of their healing wisdom and power is revealed only through deeper and deeper excavations of the self — just like buried treasure.
Her new 12-week advanced course on Ba Duan Jin Qigong helps you discover jewels still to be found by elevating your Qigong practice and experiencing the essence of the brocades with advanced meditation and visualization techniques...
... allowing you to embody their wisdom and healing power, and giving you the incredible opportunity to receive detailed feedback on your practice from Master Faye.
During this profound inner exploration, you’ll be invited to submit one- to two-minute videos of where you need a little help from Master Faye on a particular movement — and receive direct feedback from her during three integration sessions in classes 4, 8, and 11.
While there’s not enough time for every student’s video to be featured, Master Faye will choose at least six videos to workshop as a group for each integration session, and she will look for patterns, providing valuable feedback to help everyone succeed and feel the Qi.
Refining, adapting, and building on the mindful movements and special techniques of Ba Duan Jin, you’ll illuminate the deeper message of what ails you...
... experiencing a profound internalization of movements driven by energy and not muscle, as you begin to consistently access vibrant new Qi — and new dimensions of the self — from a place of joy and presence.
Most importantly, you’ll expand your ability to tangibly feel when you’re being healed by your Qi — and ease the conditions associated with blocked Qi such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, age-related stiffness, energy depletion, high blood pressure, tension, fatigue, insomnia, and more.
During this advanced course on Ba Duan Jin Qigong, you’ll:
- Embody the deeper essence and healing intelligence of the 8 brocades of Ba Duan Jin Qigong
- Submit videos of where you’re feeling stuck in your practice and receive group feedback from Master Faye during 3 integration sessions
- Receive detailed guidance on progressive breathing techniques
- Experience internal expansion and contraction — which leads to increasing your awareness of the feeling of yin and yang
- Connect deeper with the energy of the Earth for continued improvement in grounding, balance, and emotional stability
- Gain a deeper understanding of the unique hand gesture, Bazi and of the key acupuncture theory for continued improved circulation of energy
- Explore a unique internal side stretch practice that will help you move from mere external movements to internal work
- Be taught a special massage technique for the spleen and stomach which nourishes internal energy
- Discern various methods of engaging the tailbone to supercharge this movement
- Learn the deeper eye practice, which links the eye gaze to emotional energy, and how to let go of negative emotional energy
- Expand the circular movement around the sacrum to the torso, engaging with the yang energy pathways along the spine to improve the flexibility of the whole spine — and balance the water yin energy from the kidney and fire yang energy from the heart to promote good energy flow to the whole body
- Identify the expansion and contraction (yin and yang) of Qi to further increase the capacity of your lung function
As you deepen your ability to generate Qi by presence, rather than trying to methodically activate Qi through a mechanical process...
... discover the power that comes with moving your energy with intention vs. using physical movement to increase the circulation of your energy.
Experience noticeable improvements in mental and emotional balance, increased stamina, muscle tone, physical stability, and a deeper capacity to connect with your true self.
By joining Master Faye’s course, you’ll sculpt your Ba Duan Jin practice into a coherent and flowing cascade of healing that you can use to align and cleanse your mind, body, heart, and spirit — and also guide your life with clarity, joy, and presence.
What You’ll Discover in These 12 Weeks

Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to create a cascade of healing and awareness within you — and as you move through your daily life — through the deeper nuances of Ba Duan Jin Qigong.
Module 1: Harmonize San Jiao by Uniting Heaven & Earth to Energize the Body, Mind & Spirit (March 19)
Delve deeper into the power of Ba Duan Jin Qigong as a transformative practice for enhancing your overall wellbeing.
By building on the initial 7-week introductory course, experience a deeper level of practice under the guidance of Master Faye — and a renewed sense of vitality and equilibrium within your body.
Take a closer look at the intricate body alignment in Zhan Zhuang and the first movement of Ba Duan Jin, “Hold up Heaven to Harmonize San Jiao,” and learn how to identify key energy pathways.

- Gain deeper awareness of the presence of Qi in the body to improve and enhance overall health and vitality

Module 2: Strengthen Lung Qi & Improve Circulation With the “Archer Pose” Movement (March 26)
Deepen your understanding of the heart as “Emperor” of all organs as you witness firsthand the constant movement and transformation of energy, guided by the harmony of yin and yang.
Expand your understanding of the movement of “Posing as an Archer” and the use of the Bazi hand gesture. Gain greater mastery of stimulating the lung meridian and amplifying the exchange of energy between yin and yang — activating key acupuncture points and enhancing lung energy.
Experience the profound impact of deep breathing on the vitality and strength of your lung energy...
... as you take part in this immersive exploration of energy and its connection to your overall wellbeing.
This journey of self-discovery will help you unlock the potential of your lungs to enhance your energy and vitality.

- Work with your posture to alleviate aches in the lower back and knees for enhanced energy flow of good posture alignment
Module 3: Nourish the Spleen & Stomach Energy Through the “Pushing Arms Aloft” Movement (April 2)
The most transformative energy is your spleen and stomach energy, which works hard to transform nutrients from food into functional energy for your internal organs.
As Master Faye guides you through the middle dantian rotation and a deeper experience of “Pushing Arms Aloft” movements, you’ll create a massaging effect on the internal organs.
Go deeper into visualizations that will help you move beyond any perceived form of restriction.
In this session, you’ll:
- Explore a unique internal side stretch practice that will help you move from mere external movements to internal work
- Learn a special massage technique for the spleen and stomach which nourishes internal energy
- Open the energy channel along the side of the body to improve the flexibility of the spine — and release any built-up energy stagnation

- Release any energy blockage caused by tensions and stiffness to deeply relax the internal organs
- Deepen your breathing to feel the impact of your energy levels increasing naturally
- Use powerful visualizations to deepen your practice of mindful movement — preventing strains and injuries and nourishing your internal organs

Using your video submissions, Master Faye will lead a review and deepening of the knowledge you gained during the first three classes.
You’ll have ample opportunity to ask Master Faye your questions directly during an extended Q&A.

Experience how emotional energy is closely linked with the wellbeing of internal organs, using smooth, mind-calming movements coupled with controlled breathing.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), each of five organs — heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney — is associated with a specific emotion.
The heart is associated with joy and happiness.
The liver is associated with anger and frustration.
The spleen is associated with worry and overthinking.
The lung is associated with grief and sadness.
The kidney is associated with fear and insecurity.
This smooth movement helps put the internal organs at ease, while also helping to unblock emotional energy pathways and promote the smooth traveling of Qi.
Go deeper into visualizations that help you move beyond any perceived form of restriction.
In this session, you’ll:

- Learn adaptations to movements — and make them either easier or more advanced
Module 6: Heal the Heart Energy & Relieve Stress With the “Swaying the Head & Wagging the Tail” Movement (April 30)
The heart is the most yang (fire element) organ in your body.
It governs blood circulation, blood vessels, and the mind, houses the Shen/spirit, and is in charge of our happiness and joy.
“Swaying the Head & Wagging the Tail” uses circular movements around the sacrum and spine to balance the fire yang energy of the heart with the water yin energy of the kidneys.
Go deeper into visualizations that increase the flow of Qi and a felt sense of emotional stability by pushing beyond any perceived limitation.
In this session, you’ll:
- Explore various methods of utilizing the tailbone to supercharge this movement
- Activate the “engine of the body” to bring a deeper cultivation of energy
- Engage the sacrum with a gentle circular movement to release unblocked energy around the kidney meridian and increase the flexibility of the spine

- Learn adaptations to movements — and make them either easier or more advanced
Module 7: Boost Your Vitality by Strengthening Your Kidney Energy With the “Both Hands Touching the Feet” Movement (May 7)
Kidney energy is the powerhouse of your body, regarded as your most important reservoir of essential energy.
The original prenatal energy — yuan Qi, which forms the basis of life — is stored in the kidney organ energy system.
This is why the kidneys are also known as “the root of life.”
The “Both Hands Touching the Feet” movement can help you tonify your kidney energy and amplify your kidneys’ innate function of revitalizing your energy, resulting in a deeper sense of vibrancy, balance, and resilience.
In this session, you’ll:
- Deepen the flow of the “Both Hands Touching the Feet” movement

- Strengthen muscle tone and replenish the vital energy in the kidney meridian through smooth and controlled bending and stretching movements

Module 9: Boost Your Vitality and Immunity by Nourishing Liver Qi With the “Clenching Fists & Glaring Eyes” Movement (May 21)
The “Clenching Fists and Glaring Eyes” movement is a great way to increase vitality and energy levels in the body — quickly and effectively.
It also helps improve circulation, decrease stress hormones, regulate mental and emotional states, and improve coordination and balance.
Master Faye will share how practicing this movement regularly can help you build up your Qi.
This not only increases vitality, but also helps improve the immune system, reduce pain and inflammation, and optimize the natural healing power of the body to cope with the ever-increasing amount of stress and pollution you encounter daily.
In this session, you’ll:
- Learn the deeper eye practice, which links the eye gaze to emotional energy, and how to let go of negative emotional energy
- Tap into the energy changes that occur in different parts of the body during this movement
- Further develop the Wo Gu, or “Healing Fist” movement
- Continue to improve strength and flexibility in the fingers and hands by making the healing fist (Wo Gu) — and stimulate acupuncture points in the fingers and hands to clear and nourish energy pathways
- Increase energy in the liver meridian and develop improved muscle tone behind the eyes by changing between soft gaze and glaring eyes
- Tonify and replenish the liver meridian with vibrant energy by incorporating smooth and deep breathing into the movement
- Maximize these benefits using the last treasure, and harvest the good Qi back to dantian — the Qi center
Module 10: Strengthen Immunity & Prevent Sickness and Ailments With the “Raising and Lowering the Heels” Movement (May 28)
The “Raising and Lowering Heels” movement in Ba Duan Jin helps to stimulate blood flow and improve energy circulation throughout the body, working to prevent poor circulation, varicose veins, and blood clots.
Continuously lifting and lowering the heels helps strengthen the muscles in the legs, including the calves, quadriceps, and hamstrings. Strong leg muscles are essential for balance and stability, as well as for preventing falls and injuries.
Practicing the “Raising and Lowering Heels” movement in Ba Duan Jin can help improve balance and coordination, essential for maintaining mobility and preventing falls, especially as we age.
This movement requires the ankles to flex and extend, helping improve flexibility in the ankles and feet, overall mobility, and conditions such as plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis.
These rhythmic movements, combined with deep breathing, can help to calm the mind and release tension, which in turn can boost the immune system and help prevent sickness and ailments.
In this session, you’ll:
- Learn an advanced adaptation for this move which instills a feeling of balance and calm
- Explore how to integrate this movement into your daily life — for more balance and more stimulation to the feet to keep your mind still and balance your emotions
- Improve the grounding of the Qi with the Earth
- Strengthen muscle groups in the calves, ankles, and feet — and improve body alignment and balance and energy circulation to the whole body
- Consolidate the Qi cultivation and return the good Qi back to lower dantian
- Maximize these benefits using the last treasure and harvest the good Qi back to dantian — the Qi center
