Nei Yang Gong, a method of Wu Dang Qigong, harmonizes the energetic connection between the Liver and Kidneys. The Liver stores the blood and governs the emotions, while the Kidneys store  the body’s essence.  There is an interrelationship between the two organ functions, as the blood transforms into essence and the essence gives rise to blood.

With this theory in mind, the harmonious connection serves to purify and calm the Heart.  Then , the Kidney system can be more easily strengthened,  producing balanced emotions, restful sleep, and increased immunity.

Nei Yang Gong also nourishes the Spleen and Stomach Qi strengthening the digestive system and preventing the accumulation of damp heat, that may produce headaches, migraines, depression and stress.

This practical, yet powerful qigong method addresses digestive diseases and diabetes as well as elevated cholesterol levels, emotional imbalances, fatigue and insomnia, while strengthening the tendons and sinews.

This fall season, join me, as we prepare our hearts and kidneys for the long winter to come.  As always, we will incorporate some short meditation and self massage into our weekly practice.

I look forward to sharing this journey with you!

She applies her passion for healing with ancient Eastern practices, in order to better serve her community.

Kellie’s love of plants and nature led her to a B.S. in Botany and Plant Pathology at Oregon State University. But it was her awareness of Qi (and several Aikido injuries) that led her to earn a Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine at the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine in Portland, Oregon.  Kellie went on to train with Dr. “flying needle” Wong, in her post graduate study at the NanJing International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in NanJing, China. She passionately passes along her knowledge of this ancient tradition of practice to the next generation of Healers as a professor for the Central Oregon Community College Massage program, as well as teaching Cupping and Gua Sha Workshops (through Cupping Dynamix, LLC) all over the greater Northwest Region to Acupuncturists, Physical Therapist, Nurses, Massage Therapists, and many more, wishing to add some Eastern wisdom to their varied approaches to healing.
