Focus on Connecting with Life

Join us to take an experiential dive into your Sinew Channels, and the Wei Qi they conduct within and around your body!

The Sinew Channels:

  • Warm and animate us
  • Connect us with Nature and with other people
  • Orient us in time and space
  • Transmit information faster than thought
  • Enable our sensory perceptual abilities, physical and psychic
  • Connect us with the collective consciousness, and all time, past and future
  • Support our upright posture
  • Allow us to stand up, sit down, and make voluntary movements
  • Help us sleep at night and wake up in the morning
  • Activate all our smooth muscle (involuntary), like our heartbeats
  • Defend us against invasion and attack
  • Perfectly reflect our state of mind, in relaxation or in defense
  • And much more

We’ll explore Wei Qi and the Sinew Channels through meditations, talks, group sharing, partner exercises, Q & A, and more. We meet on Zoom, so that you can study comfortably from your own space.

If you would like to learn more, you can watch this free Zoom talk recorded on August 29, 2026.

Spiritual Direction Focus in Connecting with Life

The Sinew Channels are part of a system of energy known as the Complement Channels of Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM). This is a complete system of knowledge, and is quite different from what most people understand as acupuncture or Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in today’s world.

The Complement Channels are part of an unbroken oral tradition dating back to ancient times, held by the Taoist Jade Purity lineage, whose current living embodiment is Jeffrey Yuen. This class is a study and meditative exploration of spiritual direction with the support of the Complement Channels, as Jeffrey taught them to Ann Cecil-Sterman, who taught them to Amy. Amy has incorporated the Complement Channels into her understanding of energy flow, alignment, and connection, and this class reflects those perspectives.

These classes invoke sacred healing spaces. By enrolling, you agree to come with the intention to support your own and others’ spiritual exploration, regardless of their race, national origin, gender, or other personal attributes; and, importantly, you agree to maintain confidentiality. Thanks for helping us to create a safe, inclusive, warm community space.

Your body is your oldest, wisest, strongest, and most loyal friend, constantly striving to help you maintain a balanced presence on Earth, to fulfill your spiritual purpose. By resonating with energy flows in the Complement Channels, you can open new opportunities for freedom, well-being, and self-care. And certainly, if you need medical attention, please consult your physician, or call 911, or go to your local emergency room.
