Our next group Breathwork circle is this upcoming Wednesday night (7/25) at 5:30pm! 🖤 Breathwork circles are a supportive way for you to check-in with your energetic and emotional body and have space held for you as you move stagnant patterns of belief in your body. 🖤 I know this can sound weird as all hell, but I also know that real and tangible shifts have occurred for our patients after doing this work with @amykuretsky 🖤 (Wild things like finding their dream house, getting pregnant, rekindling strained family relationships, connecting with dead relatives, the list goes on and on.) 🖤 If you’re curious about trying it out and aren’t up for a 1:1 private session yet, this circle might be the perfect option for you at $40. Registration is required and can be done online through the link in our bio. See you there!! 🖤 Oh! And these stones are some of Amy’s favorite to help ground folks while they’re breathing.
Oh, memories! We are reminiscing about the sweet little one room studio space down the hall that @amykuretsky and @kimchristensen.lac shared before merging solo practices and relaunching Constellation in a larger space with an amazing team! We are absolutely in love with our new clinic space (we can’t believe we’ve been here for almost a year!), but sometimes we are a bit nostalgic for those glorious windows, the golden hour light, and the cozy simplicity of a one-room practice. ✨At least our old office space has been put to good use - our neighbor @welladjustedmn now uses it as a FAR infrared sauna room! 🔥 So much gratitude for the healing that happened in this space, and the healing that’s happening in our new one! ❤️
Next up in the Ancestors of Liberation Acupuncture movement: Master Tung Ching Chang.⠀ ⠀ Master Tung was born in Shandong Province, China. c. 1916. He moved to Taiwan during the Chinese revolution. His family lineage of acupuncture used a very different system than what became known as Traditional Chinese Medicine. He would have been persecuted if he had not conformed. Tung's acupuncture makes great use of distal points, allowing him to treat 100 people in a day and making it ideal for community acupuncture. Master Tung also stepped out of his family tradition by training many outside practitioners, including Miriam Lee.⠀ ⠀ Thank you Master Tung for sharing your families lineage with your students and passing down this important knowledge. ⠀ ⠀ Here at the clinic, we are huge believers in Liberation Acupuncture - the belief that acupuncture should be accessible to all, especially marginalized people. That's one of the reasons we passionately provide community acupuncture fundraisers monthly. (Though we wish our space allowed us to do them with more regularity!) We also think it's incredibly important to acknowledge and honor the teachers of this work that have come before us. Over the next month we'll be sharing some of the Ancestors of Liberation Acupunctures. The drawings we'll be sharing were all part of a project of the People's Organization of Community Acupuncture (POCA). Artwork is by Kate Kampmann and James Shelton.
