The Alchemy of Spring: Renewal, Vision & Flow—Affecting Change Within Ourselves and the World

Spring is the season of emergence, when energy rises, vision stirs, and movement becomes inevitable. In Chinese medicine, Spring is governed by the Liver and the Hun, the spirit of vision, imagination, and direction. When this energy flows freely, creativity and purpose come online. When it’s constrained, we experience frustration, stagnation, or burnout.

The Alchemy of Spring is a five-week Inner Medicine series exploring how Spring’s outward, creative force moves through the body, the nervous system, and the spirit. Through embodied practice, seasonal teaching, and reflection, we’ll work with the Liver and Hun to restore flow, clarify vision, and support change that is both sustainable and aligned.

This series is for those sensing a call toward renewal—personally, creatively, or in how they engage in the world without forcing or overextending. We’ll explore how inner alignment becomes a quiet but powerful form of change-making, allowing our actions to emerge from clarity rather than urgency.

Living Aligned Zoom Classroom

Nice to meet teacher and community of mellow but dedicated practitioners who follow her kindly, supportive manner and enjoy qi gong. Her spirit is warm and thoughtful as a teacher. -MI

Suzannah is a very kind and patient teacher with a lot of humility and self effacement in her approach. She doesn’t portray herself as a “know at all”, but is continuing to grow like the rest of us in her class. Suzannah also shares her own experiences and insights and presents areas of study in the form of books, research articles, and online resources if we want to dig deeper into a particular aspect of qigong. -MM

This Qigong class has added a whole new level to my spiritual practice. I’ve leaned not only the sequences but even more so, connecting with Qi/life force energy at a deep level within my body and my life. -SM

Qigong helps me remain calm during the chaos of my life.

I have noticed that I have improved my upper body strength and balance from practicing multiple times a week over the last 9 months. It gave me validation that the "slow" physical movement of Qi Gong is very effective in building strength and the low impact of Qi Gong is especially valuable to a senior like myself.
