Buchenau 2023

From 7 to 10 September 2023, an International Zhineng Qigong Meeting took place at Schloss Buchenau in East Hesse. Our aim was for Zhineng Qigong practitioners from different countries to get to know each other and build connections. Our programme of workshops and talks, practising together, evening singing and a sound concert offered plenty of opportunities for exchange among the 112 international participants from ten different countries.

The programme was complemented by talks on Zhineng Qigong theory and self-healing, led by experienced teachers from the international Zhineng‑Qigong community. Whether beginners or long-standing practitioners – the open structure fostered community and shared inspiration, so that everyone was able to benefit greatly.

With its picturesque setting, excellent cuisine and wonderful large assembly hall, Schloss Buchenau proved to be the ideal venue for our event.

A special highlight at the close of our event was a large Healing Spiral in the open air. The Qi field, which was very harmonious and strong throughout all the days, could be experienced here once again in a particularly impressive way.

Very much in the spirit of combining inner practice with social engagement, donations were collected during the gathering for two hospices in North Hesse: a total of 820 € was raised. Of this, in December 2023 420 € was handed over to Hospiz Kellerwald in Gilserberg and in February 2024 400 € to the multi-generational hospice at Heilhaus Kassel.

Conclusion: The international Qigong gathering at Schloss Buchenau in September 2023 was an enriching combination of in-depth practice, learning together and commitment to a good cause – a thoroughly successful and harmonious event at which many new friendships and connections were made.
