Dear Visionary Leaders and Community Builders,
What if you could offer your team, organization, or community something that reduces stress, increases vitality, builds connection, and costs nothing to maintain once learned? What if this "something" has been proven effective for over 4,000 years and is backed by modern research showing measurable benefits for both physical and mental well-being?
I'm reaching out because I believe the ancient practice of Qi Gong could be a transformative gift for the people you serve and lead.
Creating Custom Experiences for Your People
I'm Dr Kelly Jennings, naturopathic physician, Chinese medicine practitioner, and dedicated practitioner and teacher in the Jin Jing Gong (Nourishing Life) tradition, trained under the renowned masters Heiner Fruehauf and Wang Qingyu. Over the years, I've had the privilege of witnessing how this gentle yet powerful practice transforms not just individuals, but entire groups when they learn and practice together.
Whether you're leading a corporate team, wellness center, spiritual community, healthcare organization, educational institution, or community group, I'd love to explore how we might create a custom Qi Gong experience specifically designed for your people's needs and schedule.

Custom Program Possibilities
I love collaborating with organizations to create experiences that fit their unique culture, schedule, and goals. Here are some formats we might explore:
Retreat Experiences
Half-day workshops introducing the fundamentals of Qi Gong and energy awareness
Full-day retreats diving deep into the 14 Brocades with instruction, practice, and integration

Celebration gatherings incorporating movement, mindfulness, and community
The Power of Group Practice
There's something magical that happens when people practice Qi Gong together. Individual benefits are amplified by collective energy, creating what practitioners call a "field" of mutual support and healing. Groups often report:
Deeper sense of connection and trust among participants
Shared language and tools for managing stress and supporting each other
Increased motivation to maintain personal practice
Joy and laughter emerging naturally from the practice
A sense of participating in something larger than individual wellness
Research-Backed Benefits Your People Will Experience
The evidence supporting Qi Gong's effectiveness continues to grow, with studies demonstrating:
Physical Benefits:
Improved cardiovascular health and blood pressure regulation
Enhanced immune function and reduced illness frequency
Better balance, flexibility, and fall prevention
Chronic pain reduction, particularly for back pain and arthritis
Improved sleep quality and energy levels
Mental/Emotional Benefits:
Significant reduction in anxiety and depression symptoms
Enhanced stress resilience and emotional regulation
Improved focus, memory, and cognitive function
Greater sense of well-being and life satisfaction
Increased mindfulness and present-moment awareness
Social/Community Benefits:
Enhanced group cohesion and communication
Shared tools for managing collective stress
Increased empathy and emotional intelligence
Stronger sense of community and mutual support
The 14 Brocades: A Complete System
The particular practice I specialize in—the 14 Brocades of the Jin Jing Gong school—offers a complete system for cultivating vitality and awareness. Each form works with specific organ systems and energy pathways, creating a comprehensive practice that's both therapeutically sophisticated and beautifully accessible.
From The Temple Guard Stands at the Ritual Gate (establishing boundaries and sacred space) to Embracing Mount Kun Lun and Arching the Tail (integrating earth and heaven energies), these forms tell a story of empowerment, connection, and renewal that resonates deeply with people across all backgrounds and belief systems.
Investment in Lasting Wellness
Unlike many wellness programs that require ongoing costs for equipment, facilities, or subscriptions, Qi Gong is a gift that keeps giving. Once your people learn these practices, they have tools they can use anywhere, anytime, for the rest of their lives. The initial investment in learning creates lasting dividends in individual and collective well-being.
Pricing for custom programs varies based on:
Group size and number of sessions
Format (retreat vs. ongoing series)
Location and travel requirements
Specific customization needs
I believe wellness education should be accessible, and I'm always happy to work with organizations to find arrangements that fit their budgets and serve their people well.
Creating Something Beautiful Together
What excites me most about custom programs is the opportunity to collaborate with leaders who truly care about their people's well-being. Together, we can create something that honors both ancient wisdom and your organization's unique culture and needs.
Whether you're envisioning a one-time retreat to mark a special transition, an ongoing series to support your team through a challenging period, or a regular practice that becomes part of your organizational culture, I'd love to explore what's possible.
Getting Started
If this sparks your interest, I'd love to have a conversation about:
Your vision for bringing wellness practices to your people
The specific needs and challenges your group is facing
What format and timing might work best for your schedule and culture
How we might customize the content to serve your particular population
Investment levels that fit your budget and priorities
I'm also happy to provide references from other organizations I've worked with, research citations supporting the benefits of Qi Gong, or materials you can share with decision-makers in your organization.
A Partnership in Service
My deepest motivation in this work is supporting the creation of healthier, more resilient communities. When we give people practical tools for managing stress, cultivating vitality, and connecting with each other, we're investing in positive change that ripples out far beyond any single program or organization.
I believe your people deserve access to practices that have been supporting human well-being for thousands of years. The 14 Brocades offer a bridge between ancient wisdom and modern needs, providing tools that are both deeply rooted and completely relevant for contemporary life.
The Invitation Stands
Whether you're leading 10 people or 100, whether you're interested in a single workshop or an ongoing partnership, whether your focus is stress reduction, team building, or spiritual development, I'd love to explore how the wisdom of Qi Gong might serve your community.
The practice is waiting. Your people deserve tools for thriving. Let's create something beautiful together.
With excitement for what's possible,
