About

A calm, relaxed, flexible hand requires a tranquil, relaxed and joyful mind. Oriental Orchid (“蘭”),the second topic in the “Four Gentlemen” brush painting training is the symbol for a joyful mood. By drawing the prolonged curves of the leaves, which start from the centre of the plant, evoke an everlasting source of life and inspiration. In Level 2, we will explore mindfulness, awareness and presence through mindful breathing, body posture and meditative brush practice as we learn how to paint Orchid (“蘭”) . We will learn to trust the flow of ch'i (life force) through our brush, and onto the paper, and likewise how we bring awareness and joy into our everyday activity. Each session begins with simple movement and breathing exercises of Kum Nye (from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition) – suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels – to help us relax and be present in the body. We are looking forward to sharing, practicing and breathing with you, soon.
