Encouragement, classes, community, and healing sessions with Emily Jarrett Hughes
Learning how to work with (gong) the flow of life force energy (qi or “Chee”) is the essence of qigong. Qigong is an empowering system of movement and meditations that can help you feel better physically and emotionally. Founded on a long lineage of wisdom teachings, qigong also helps with longevity and spiritual awakening
If you wish you had more energy, felt more inner peace, or even better, a sense of hope and possibility in the face of whatever challenges you face, you are in the right place.

What’s New
Working with Winter Solstice Energy
Truly, the solstice is one of my favorite days of the year. Of course I love to celebrate that the light is getting stronger. What I really love is that Winter Solstice is the gateway for my favorite season of dreaming and inner integration.
At the height of summer, it’s as though we have everything plugged in and turned on: the washing machine, dishwasher, hair dryer, toaster, microwave, TVs, etc. all at once. During that season we have oodles of power. Our job to make sure we don’t overheat.
In the deepest part of winter, just like there is less sunlight, it’s as though we have only a few fuses available in the house.

Qigong Healing Sessions
Do you long to feel better in body, mind, AND, spirit? Has talking-it-out and medication been helpful and still leaving you stuck – like there is still a piece of the puzzle missing?
What if your healing challenge right now was the excuse you’ve needed to make some big changes in your life to feel better? What if this moment is giving you permission to attend to spiritual questions that have haunted you for a long time?

Testimonials
After this session my headache dropped from a pain level of approximately seven or eight to a three or four. My neck which was very warm with pain when I arrived was now cold and pain free. I felt this very overwhelming sense of peace, calm, pleasantness, relief and very well grounded. It was a wonderful feeling I had never experienced before. – Greg
When [I had a healing session with Emily as] I was recovering from surgery, I could feel a course of energy through me and surrounding me which freed up the grief and trauma that my body was experiencing and allowed me to have a deep sense of compassion with my body for what it was recovering from. This was followed by a sense of being held in love and safety, which was perhaps the greatest gift in the midst of an emotionally pretty dark time for me. – Kathryn
Meet Emily
My name is Emily Jarrett Hughes and I am a healer, teacher, dancer, and mother living in Minneapolis.
The vitality and joy I find in Spring Forest Qigong were a lifeline through a major health crisis and are the inspiration for my teaching and healing practice. I have studied Spring Forest Qigong since 2006, completing Level 5, and am a Certified Instructor and Healer. I lead a hybrid, weekly drop-in qigong practice group. I also teach dance as a tool for healing and transformation. Everything that I do leans into the interrelationship between healing ourselves, healing the water, and healing the world. I have taught hundreds of classes and helped hundreds of people with healing. I love seeing my students and clients strengthen their connection with body, mind and spirit and unlock their capacity to live vibrant, courageous lives.
