Fusion of the five elements is a Chi Gong practice that uses breath, sound and visualization to transform the emotions, and connect with nature and the animals in a shamanistic - modern and ancient dance. I taught myself this practice out of a book by Mantak Chia. Minke de Vos came to town last weekend and taught a group here in Seattle at Home Yoga Seattle, and filled in the gaps, she offers a wonderful presentation of the material,and her deep thinking into all the subtleties of Tao and life and practicing these ancient forms as a movement artist. I taught part of the workshop inviting the concepts of bone breathing and he five healing sounds, into the asana practice. I find it gives a place for the emotions, so much is released in yoga asana the sounds can be incorporated into the breath and be reflected inwards as a vibration. The breath and the intention and the image of light does rejuvenate, and make me new. I will be working on this practice more.
