3:00pm - 5:30pm: Community Acupuncture Treatments, $30 (or bring a friend and get two for the price of one)
Community acupuncture is a return to traditional healing, where treatments were conducted in a group, rather than individual, setting. Group treatments foster a sense of community and support and are convenient for family members or friends to receive treatment together. This also allows us to make acupuncture more affordable and accessible for our patients.

6:30pm - 7:30pm: SunDo Taoist Yoga & Breathing Meditaion, a participitory class led by SunDo Instructors
A SunDo practice begins with a series of stretching exercises that loosen and relax the body. Next, a practitioner maintains various SunDo postures during a period of lower abdomenal breathing. Practice concludes with a series of cool-down stretches that circulate vital energy. Breathing is performed in a slower and deeper rhythm, which over time may change how a person thinks, feels, reasons and reacts. Physical health may improve along with a greater sense of creativity, self-awareness and joy.


7:30pm - 8:00pm: Energy Healing & The Breath, a talk by Christine Ucich, SunDo Instructor
How are breathing and vital energy connected? Each incoming breath energizes the body and each out going breath relaxes the body. If you want to energize your body and mind take more time to inhale and less time to exhale. Control of the breath will give you control over your mind. Control of the mind will give you control over your life. Connecting with your breath and using Taoist breathing techniques will allow you to breathe energy as well as air. Your health will improve and you will have more energy to enjoy life.


8:00pm - 9:00pm: Sound Healing Therapy, a hands-on session and group meditation with Tibetan bowls
Sound healing is an effective and proven modality that uses vibrational energy to help reduce stress, alter consciousness and create a deep sense of peace, well being and better health. Healing sounds have also been shown to be effective in the healing process for chronically-ill patients by reducing stress and aiding in pain management. The modality dates back to Tibetan Buddhism where the instruments were used for consciousness transformation and healing.

"Knowing others is wisdom;
Knowing the self is enlightenment;
Mastering others requires force;
Mastering the self needs strength."
