Program Description: According to Chinese Medicine, Jing (Essence), Qi (Lifeforce Energy), and Shen (Spirit) are the Three Treasures within us. If the Three Treasures are wholesome, the person will be wholesome. Shen is the most subtle and non-material type of Qi. By practicing Mindful Stretching Therapy, the practitioner can improve wholesomeness of Shen, which in turn, will help keeping Jing and Qi wholesome. In the meantime, the Mindful Stretching Therapy also improves the body health directly by stretching the muscles, tendons, fascias, and ligaments. Mindful Stretching Therapy developed by Dwight Chien is a revolutionary technique in the world. It allows us to safely and comfortably stretch beyond our Stretch Reflex while the rest of the world is still stretching within it. This unique feature affords the direct therapeutic effect for Mindful Stretching Therapy.

A system has been developed for participants to do stretching of the whole body. The Mindful Stretching Therapy has been approved for 8 PDA points and will be taught in an 8-hour session. Upon completion of this course, the participants will learn:

• the relationship of the Three Treasures, and how to cultivate mindfulness through stretching to support their Three Treasures.
• to improve body health by learning how to safely and comfortably stretch beyond the Stretch Reflex of the body.
• to stretch and help healing some of their own muscle/tendon/ligament pain.
• to teach their patients how to do a few specific stretching to speed up recovery.
• to slow down or even reverse aging of their muscle/tendon/ligament to stay healthy and age gracefully.

Presenter: Dwight has more than 20 years of experience in Meditation, Taichi, Six Healing Sounds, Shake Arm exercises. He also has more than 6 years of experience in Mindful Stretching Therapy.
