Transformative Journeys: Celebrating the First Graduates of Our Curative Qigong® Mastermind Program
We are excited to celebrate the first graduating class of our Curative Qigong® Mastermind program! This two-year, graduate-level course has been a transformative journey for each participant, who began with our foundational Qigong Teacher Training Levels 1 and 2. Their stories of personal growth, healing, and community impact are truly inspiring and demonstrate the far-reaching effects of Qigong practice.
If you’ve already taken (or are currently taking) Qigong Teacher Training, and are interested in joining the next Curative Qigong® Mastermind program, we will have an informational meeting on August 13, 5:00pm pacific time.
Check out the video above and/or read the summaries below to hear about where each Curative began and where they are after completing Curative Qigong® Mastermind program!
Michelle’s Journey: A Quest for Deeper Healing
Michelle, with an extensive background in bodywork and healing arts, felt something was missing. “I fixed my own shoulder during the previous classes with Chris and Parisa,” she shared. The Curative Qigong® program provided her with clear, concise information, devoid of ego. Michelle now has a better understanding of herself, her relationships with her husband and children, and feels she has more to offer the world.
Eric’s Transformation: From Student to Practitioner
Eric began his Qigong journey several years ago. “I’ve learned so much from Chris; it’s changed my life,” he said. Working with his son and others, Eric has already seen significant healing results. His son has shown remarkable improvement since he started providing him Curative Qigong® sessions. Eric is now ready to launch his practice, embodying the principle of continual learning and application.
Jen’s Realization: The Missing Piece
For Jen, Qigong was the missing piece she didn’t know she needed. “I’m strong, but this course has helped me be softer, more open, and patient,” she explained. Jen’s passion for the body and teaching has been reignited, and she now shares the transformative power of Curative Qigong® with everyone she meets.
Feather’s Connection: Bridging Cultures and Communities
Feather always felt she was meant for something different but didn’t know what it was. “This program showed me that I can still be this role and have all these things within me that I can be working on and healing,” she shared. The Curative Qigong® Mastermind program helped Feather embrace her vulnerabilities and use them to connect deeply with others. She is now excited to see where this journey will take her next, especially in bridging gaps with tech workers and offering Qigong to diverse communities.
Christine’s Dedication: From Client to Teacher
Christine’s journey with us began in 2015. “I started as a client, became a teacher, and now I’m a Curative,” she recollected. Despite personal hardships, including the loss of her mother, Christine persevered. She now owns Morning Crane in San Jose, offering a range of healing services and teaching Qigong to the Spanish-speaking community. Her resilience and dedication have made her a cornerstone of healing within her community.
Shari’s New Path: From Trauma to Wellness Coordination
Shari connected with us after a traumatic family event. “I remember saying at the end of the last class with Chris that this is going to be my fourth career,” she shared. Shari’s commitment to Curative Qigong® has led her to a new role as a wellness coordinator at her school district. She will be implementing Qigong practices to support both educators and students, promoting overall well-being and resilience.
Hope’s Exploration: From Brass to Sincere Living
Hope’s journey began with curiosity sparked by a radio broadcast. Initially skeptical, she found immense value in the playful yet profound teachings of Chris and Parisa. “I was used to things being very serious and not playful,” she admitted. Despite initial doubts, Hope embraced the journey, discovering a more sincere path in life. The program gave her the courage to continually reassess and realign her life with her true passions.
Tom’s Healing Hands: From Explosive Emotions to Empathy
Tom’s journey started with a profound dream during a retreat, revealing his latent healing abilities. “My hands are healing hands,” he dreamt. Guided by this vision, Tom has embraced his role as a healer, witnessing incredible transformations in those he helps. Whether it’s alleviating pain or overcoming personal struggles, Tom’s empathetic approach and commitment to inner work have made a significant impact on his community.
Megan’s Revelation: Embracing the Unknown
Megan, an 8th-grade teacher in Chicago, shared how she used Qigong techniques to help her students overcome graduation anxiety. “Together we can do anything,” she exclaimed. The Curative Qigong® Mastermind program helped Megan align with her highest potential. Her newfound skills have not only benefited her personal growth but also had a positive impact on her students.
Chris and Parisa’s Commitment: Building a Family of Healers
The journey of this graduating class is a testament to our dedication and unwavering commitment. Despite personal hardships, we have shown up for our students, creating a safe and nurturing environment for growth. “We have a vision, and you guys are part of that vision,” Chris emphasized. The Curative Qigong® Mastermind program is not just about learning techniques; it’s about building a family of healers who will continue to make a difference in the world.
The first graduating class of our Curative Qigong® Mastermind program has set a high bar for what is possible through dedication, empathy, and community support. Each graduate’s story is a powerful testament to the transformative potential of Qigong, not only for personal healing but also for creating a ripple effect of wellness and compassion around the world.
These remarkable individuals have embraced their vulnerabilities, faced their challenges head-on, and emerged stronger, more empathetic, and deeply connected to their true selves and those around them. As they move forward, they carry with them the teachings, wisdom, and love from the program, ready to inspire and heal others.
We are incredibly proud of each of these pioneers and look forward to seeing how their journeys continue to unfold. Their experiences underscore the boundless potential of the Curative Qigong® Mastermind program, and we invite you to join us on this transformative path.
