COVID-19 Notice
Until further notice my Private Practice is now open only on a limited basis, following strict COVID protocols.
I am also offering distance healing sessions and consultations. You may contact me at markjensdc@icloud.com for details or text me at (505) 603-6518.
All of my offerings, whether it’s Qi Gong, EarthPrayers Qi Gong, The Work That Reconnects, Deep Earth Dreaming, or private practice share the intention of helping people embody more deeply and find their own connection to Source, to Gaia, so that they might begin to cultivate a life from there, one that is more available to be moved to action by something greater than the small sense of self.
I believe this basic impulse, this philosophy, has always been at the heart of Chiropractic, Osteopathy, Chinese Medicine and shamanism; to bring about a more deeply embodied connection to ‘Self’. We look to cultivate this in ceremony and ritual, in sacred physical practice, and in the true healing arts; those that seek to address this deep cultural and cross generational wound of separation.

Rising Earth Studio
Like a lot of traditions Qi Gong has become very Westernized and diluted in the way it is all too often taught, in a way that many traditional teachers would say leaves it in a state where one shouldn’t actually call it Qi Gong.
So then, what is it? In a Nei Gong practice, or we could say process, it is used as an internal practice to create a cause in the body that leads to a desired effect that the Nei Gong process unfolds in one’s body, mind, and life. To that end Qi Gong seeks to create specific structures in the body, to connect the body along very detailed lines and relationships, to consolidate the Dan Tian, to open and clear the channels, and to begin to cultivate Qi that can be used for personal transformation. This is an internal alchemical practice in the deepest and truest sense of the word. Nothing in all my years of study remotely even touches the places this does. If you are drawn to this practice you should check it out.
No other Qi Gong practice has touched or moved me so deeply. I find in my life, in these challenging times, I need a physically based spiritual practice to ground my body, settle my mind, and cultivate an internal state of balance, equanimity, and harmony. Nei Gong does just that, and now after years of study I have found both the teaching and teacher I need in the Lotus Nei Gong School. I am humbled and honored to be given the chance to pursue this ancient tradition and to have the chance to share these teachings.
The
Lotus Nei Gong School has a growing body of online resources including podcasts and online trainings not to mention many excellent text books. Locally, as a certified Qi Gong instructor for the school, I offer individual instruction, occasional workshops, and some weekly and online classes in alignment with that tradition.
