This series of four webinar days (7h per day, in English on Zoom during two full weekends) with Laurent MAGNE (Director of YMAA Paris Nord, YMAA Qìgōng Instructor and Doctor of Chinese Energetic Medicine) is intended to be an in depth exploration of Small Circulation Meditations (SCM, also called Microcosmic Orbit or MCO) which goes much further than just regulating your qì, although it is a very important application. One weekend webinar will he held in December (potential days are December 14 and 15), the other one will he held in February (potential days are February 15 and 16). This means you will have two months in between the seminars to train what we have covered by yourself, and write down your questions for the next webinar. Practice is a critical part pf the learning process.

We will very briefly review Embryonic Breathing and build upon the basic SCM concept, consisting of leading the Qì up the Du Mai (Governing Vessel) and down the Ren Mai (Conception Vessel) to deepen its practice, discover, understand and experience the others families of SCM and their specific benefits (opening the Vessels and psychic gates, developing and increasing your perceptions, boosting your immune system, removing different energy and emotional blockages, grounding, increasing your connection with Heaven, preparing for spiritual cultivation, etc.). Doing so, we will go for a deep dive into its Theory and Practice (35%/65%), with some time for discussing your experience, findings and difficulties after each practice, to further enrich your understanding and refine your practice quality and broaden it. Laurent will share his 10+ years of experience with SCM and useful tips and principles for enhanced practice, including methods he personally developed from his practice founded upon what he received from his teacher, Master Yáng Jwìng Mǐng.

On the top of introducing a recovery Qìgōng, we will also explain in details the “Eight Sitting Pieces of Brocade” and its strong significance for Intermediate to Advanced Practice of SCM.
