[Michlib-l] Program recommendation - Qigong and sound bath by Janet Joiner

[Kelly Rembert]

Hi,

Last night we did 2 back to back programs presented by Janet Joiner.

5:30 - 6:30 we did a Qigong program - Enhance overall health and wellness by participating in qigong and a sound bath. Qigong is slow fluid physical movements originally practiced by ancient, indigenous peoples of China as traditional medicine.

6:30 - 7:30 we had a sound bath - A sound bath features a variety of relaxing sounds designed to reduce stress while enhancing wellbeing and a sense of calm.  Feel free to bring a yoga mat or blanket to lay on.

They were presented by Janet Joiner (248-291-7975 or janet_joiner at yahoo.com) and I was highly impressed with her.  She had both programs prepared with music soundtracks that timed it perfectly.  She encouraged everyone to move at their own pace and ability and showed a few different ways you could do something.  We had over 30 people at both programs and about half stayed for both programs and half attended just one of the programs.  She was professional to work with and brought all of the equipment for the sound bath along with 15 yoga mats to lend out to those that didn't have their own and sleep masks for all participants.

Participants told me how much they enjoyed it and that they want to bring her back and do it again.

She is based in Southfield but wants to travel to other libraries.

Thanks,
Kelly
