Christina J Barea, Qigong - GoodEye Photography
For more than 10 years I've been practicing martial arts and for the last 5, treating health issues with Medical Qigong. I look forward to providing insightful articles which will share my acquired experience and help you navigate the abundant and diverse waters of Qi.
Since childhood I've been interested in the esoteric. What began as a mere curiosity for symbolism, mythology and astrology has evolved into a passion and lifestyle. After traveling around the World via books on religion I finally found my home in the Eastern arts.
My experience, qualifications and accomplishments are below:
- Masters in Medical Qigong from the International Institute of Medical Qigong having studied with Dr. Jerry Alan Johnson & Dr. Bernard Shannon.
- Daoist Priest of the Zheng Yi sect (China) and have traveled to Daoist Monasteries in China for instruction and ordination in Daoism.
- Qigong and Tai Chi Instructor having taught in corporate environments, health studios, and Universities. I've presented seminars, workshops and lectures at various public venues (too many to list!).
- Elected officer of the Board of Directors of the National Qigong Association.
Welcome.
Many blessings to you.
