QIGONG, MINDFULNESS AND WELLNESS IN THE MINERVOIS
BREATHE . MOVE . FEEL GOOD
I'm Kalba Meadows, and I've created Vital Energy Living to share some of the simple yet amazing tools and practices that have changed my life over more than 40 years - and continue to change it today.
I'm passionate about helping people (including myself) to build resilience, to improve mobility, energy flow and our capacity to calm the nervous system, and to prepare ourselves for healthy and positive ageing.
Vital Energy Living offers simple, practical and grounded ways to support body and mind in everyday life, through the integration of qigong, breathwork and mindfulness, with the option of one-to-one support if you need it.
All sessions are offered in English and through a non-profit association - there is no formal charge, but for those who are able, a donation is greatly appreciated to help fund the sessions and the association.

In that slowing down, you may find gentle miracles happening - a subtle release of chronic stress or pain you'd almost forgotten you had, a sense of reconnecting with your own vital energy, a gradual release of tension, a sense of settling and coming home to yourself.
Qigong is usually practised standing, but can also be done seated - this works best in the small-group indoor sessions. Mindfulness and breathwork are usually practised sitting, but can also (sometimes, and optionally) include standing and walking practices.
QIGONG - stillness in movement
More calm, less stress; ease of movement, balance and joint-opening; better health, sleep and longevity ... qigong can lead you to all this and more. Simple, mindful movements that anyone can do, alongside a deep awareness of your breathing and of your body as you move, are all you need. More ...
BREATHWORK - breathe light, breathe slow, breathe deep
Better breathing for better focus, sleep and resilience. You'll learn how to improve oxygen delivery to the brain and body, calm the nervous system and reduce over-breathing, and you'll develop new breathing patterns for everyday life, stress management and exercise.

MINDFULNESS - movement in stillness
Mindfulness is simply coming into the present moment - this moment, and the next, and the next. We use the body and the breath to help us do this and to become of aware of the current of life energy that runs deep within us. Standing, sitting or walking, we explore different methods for times when you need a particular way in. More ...
