I already know I want to be part of this circle! 

Do you hold space for others?

As a healer, therapist, teacher, leader, or natural health guide?

Are you ready to:


• Restore your energy?
• Deepen your presence?
• Hold more potent healing containers?
• Embody sustainable, soul-led leadership?

If yes... this is your invitation.

istockphoto-1133497899-612x612.jpg

​​​​​

The Reality of Now

Let’s be honest.


The work of holding space has become more challenging than ever.

Our clients are navigating chronic stress, fear, and chaos. And while we are here to support them, we are also navigating our own layers of uncertainty regarding safety, finances, and maintaining stability in a rapidly changing world.

The more intense life becomes, the more vital it is for us as practitioners to be clear, grounded, and deeply resourced.

I See Your Hesitation

You may be thinking:


“I’m already stretched too thin. I don’t have time for more. I’m tired.”


“It feels like a lot of money right now.”


“I’ve already trained for years, why invest again?”

Here’s the truth:

This is not another training to add to the already overwhelming list.


This is a restorative upgrade.

Instead of draining you, it replenishes your energy.

Instead of overwhelming you, it brings clarity and grounded presence.

Instead of repeating what you already know, it sustains and amplifies the years you’ve already invested in your practice.

This is an investment in yourself and your professional longevity, so you can continue to serve without depletion and lead with clarity even in uncertain times.

What Shifts When You Root Into Five Element Qigong

  • Clear the energetic residue that lingers after client work.

  • Restore your clarity, stabilize your presence, and protect your field.

  • Move beyond burnout into radiant vitality.

  • Hold healing containers from fullness rather than exhaustion.

  • Feel more confident, centered, and aligned in both work and life.

​​​

This is your invitation.

To awaken your inner healer & activate vital life force energy from

Five Element Qigong, so you and your clients thrive.

This is not just a course. It’s a sanctuary & a transformational group journey.

  • A place to return to your roots.

  • A practice to restore your vitality and power.

  • A container that strengthens your presence so you can hold others—without losing yourself.

  • If you’re ready to say yes to clarity, confidence, and sustainable soul-led leadership, then join us.


My deepest desire for this journey:

Is to honor your wisdom and years of experience as a leader or healer. And that this practice meets you where you are now, and gently guides you into deeper alignment with your body, your energy, and the natural world, so you can activate the superpowers of presence, empathy, transpersonal knowing, and hold an even more potent container for yourself and your healing work.

Shinto Monument at the Park

You've heard the call...

Now it's time to pass through the gate.

Your path invites you inward, deeper.​

This is where your practice deepens into lived wisdom

The Five Elements:

 

Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water live inside of you. They hold the keys to your balance, vitality, and inner peace as a practitioner.

When you understand how these elements move through you and how you move with them, you stop managing symptoms of adrenal fatigue and depletion and start transforming at the root, awakening your vitality.

You and your client work shifts from:

  • Depletion and exhaustion from chronic overgiving

  • Compassion fatigue

  • Energetic burnout

  • Secondary trauma

  • Disconnection from the potency of your healing work

You begin to:

  • Reclaim your clarity

  • Anchor into your power field

  • Hold the container without absorbing the client's pain

  • Restore emotional and hormonal balance so your sessions go deeper

  • Attune to the intrinsic superpowers of presence, empathy, compassion, trust, transpersonal knowing, leadership, joy, healing, and love.... 

Qigong teaches essential skills to clear energetic residue after client sessions.

 

Resulting in your personal ability to:

  • Release stored tension in the body and mind.

  • Balance emotional swings and stabilize your mood.

  • Ground into your true nature and feel rooted in yourself.

  • Clear stuck energy and repetitive patterns.

  • Restore deep vitality that feels effortless and lasting so you and your clients thrive.

Reserve my place in the circle

This transformational group journey is designed for individuals who hold space, Such as Counselors, Therapists, Body workers, Healers, Teachers, Facilitators, and Leaders, who lead with sensitivity and are ready to uplevel and harmonize themselves and those around them.

Work with Movement, Sound, and Stillness to Heal and Transform

Become a "Master Gardener" of Your Internal Energy to Cultivate Your Life Garden

Compost what no longer serves you, gently detoxifying organs, softening old patterns, and allowing fresh Qi to circulate with ease and vitality.

Just like you are trained to listen to your clients, this is an opportunity to get empowered to listen to your body with nuance, care for your energy with skill, and become the wise steward of your internal landscape.

Consciously plant "seeds" of health and well-being in your life garden. When you flourish and thrive, so do those you care for!

Testimonials

"Maria creates a sacred space that is so much more than just Qigong. Within these sessions, I notice I am connecting to the ancient lineage and potency of these movements, while also experiencing a deepening connection to my own capacity to heal and expand this body. There is such sweetness in exploring this embodiment practice within the holding space of others who are also deepening into their own power and vulnerability. Maria creates a safe space for us to lean into our edges, opening to the healing potential within each one of us, that is potentiated in the holding of the whole circle of people." 

Jaime K. Hardy, Ph.D.

Qigong practioner 

“I had my first class yesterday with Maria, and I literally can't even describe how wonderful it was. I'm already looking forward to next week's class! I started the class in a really emotionally and physically stressed out state, not even realizing the true level of the weight I was carrying, and I ended the class feeling so much lighter, so much less tension, and a deep level of inner peace in both my mind and body. I carry that with me all day, and I can still feel it today. I am forever grateful for Maria sharing this gift and knowledge with our community.”

-Tryphina Renz

The Good Dog Cafe

"Practicing qigong with Maria Chowdry is a nourishing and empowering experience. As a queer and trans person, it's especially affirming to find spaces where all parts of my lived experience are warmly welcomed—and Maria creates that kind of space with deep intention and care. Her teaching honors each person's inherent power and dignity with genuine reverence, creating a sense of belonging that is both grounding and expansive."

Sam Ash

Group Facilator

Maria is not only an amazing, joyful, loving person…she is a dedicated and committed teacher.
What I have experienced in her QiGong class is a deeper awareness and connection with my physical body, spiritual resonance, and my relationships.
She has the ability to tap deeply into the exploration of our interconnectedness with the elements, seasons, and guides…all while beautifully demonstrating and teaching the form of Qigong.
I highly recommend her classes!!
In deep gratitude.

“Maria helps me connect to my body’s own energy flow, enhancing my physical and mental awareness that clears away energy blocks keeping my stress and emotions in balance.  The movements allow increased circulation enabling a stronger immune system to flourish, providing a great benefit to me during this time of uncertainty.  Maria’s class makes you feel at peace when you leave, no matter what is going on around you.”

Sandra  Parrotte Oracle and Priestess of the Sacred Feminine Arts

"Working with Maria has been a transformative and nourishing experience. Maria's skillful and intuitive approach, combined with her deep understanding of Qigong's healing and wellness aspects, has inspired harmony within my mind, body, and spirit. I feel rejuvenated after each qigong session. Maria is skilled at creating a sacred container for healing and self-discovery within a group while being mindful of individual hopes and needs. I have found a sense of community and support in her presence, connecting with other women on the same journey. I highly recommend Maria as a qigong teacher and empathetic guide for those seeking to connect with their inner Self and embrace a supportive community."

Kayley Walker

"Maria is full of embodied feminine wisdom to share! I’ve been acquainted with her for many years, love her herbal offerings, and am so glad that she is now teaching Qi Gong. Qi Gong has long been a favorite of mine, and I’ve enjoyed many classes from different teachers. In Maria’s classes, I'm always pleased and enriched by her unique and heartfelt ways of sharing this ancient form of healing. Thank you, Maria, you bring a new life to this practice!"

It is an honor to be with you and meet you at this gateway as we journey through the elements together and take great care of our health, vitality, and well-being.

Qigong is an ancient practice that is just as relevant today as it was thousands of years ago.
