The Listening Body

A Vivid Visionaries Retreat

February 17-22

Tulum, Mexico

$3,500 for early bird by Nov 15th

Qigong, Chinese Medicine & Craniosacral Therapy

This retreat is intentionally open to both practitioners and people with no previous bodywork training. Acupuncturists, bodyworkers, and yoga or Qigong teachers will find real material to bring home. So will anyone simply curious about the body’s subtle signals. No previous experience with Qigong, Chinese medicine, or craniosacral therapy is required.

Each day begins with Qigong practice to cultivate body awareness, sensitivity, and self-regulation—the same qualities you’ll draw upon when working hands-on with another person. Through craniosacral listening, partner practice, and the foundations of Chinese medicine, you’ll explore how to listen through touch and observation, follow the body’s responses rather than impose a fix, and understand health through the interconnected patterns of organ systems, channels, and natural cycles.

The retreat also includes two half-day excursions into the jungle and coastal landscape surrounding Tulum, offering a change of rhythm and space for the teachings and practices to settle into the body.
