Fully Alive Qigong, Meditation, Therapy, Mindfulness

Welcome to Fully Alive

Person-centred healing for body, mind and spirit

 

Fully Alive offers a unique, synergistic approach to wellbeing - integrating Eastern practices like Qigong, Meditation, Mindfulness and Zen Yoga with Western therapeutic support, including HypnoCBT, Zero Balancing, and a person-centred counselling approach.

As a long-term practitioner of mind-body therapies and a student completing a BACP-accredited counselling qualification, I offer a grounded and compassionate space for your healing journey - whether you're navigating stress, emotional challenges, or simply seeking a deeper connection with your inner self.

Each offering is part of a wider invitation: to return to presence, reclaim your vitality, and feel fully alive - just as you are.

Book cover

Zhang San Feng is the legendary Daoist sage credited with the creation of internal Taijiquan – a profound art that wove together martial application, meditative awareness, and energy cultivation.

His teachings build upon the legacy of Bodhidharma – the Indian monk who brought Chan (Zen) meditation to Shaolin centuries earlier. Zhang San Feng infused stillness into motion, harmonising body, breath, and spirit within the natural flow of life.

In the upcoming 4-hour online course starting 5th July 2025, we return to his Treatise on Focusing Spirit and Accumulating Energy as a map for internal cultivation. Through simple forms, breathwork, reflection, and silence, we explore Taiji as a way to rediscover wholeness.

If you are interested in taking the course, or want to take deeper dive into the Zhang San Feng Treatise and application to everyday life, you can sign up to receive a download of the mini book The Way Within - Legacy of Zhang San Feng, including

  • Reflections

  • Practice exercises

  • Journal prompts

15-Minute Transformational Shaolin Cosmos Qigong Practice

Life can feel relentless. Constant demands, pressure to keep going, a mind that rarely switches off – it’s no wonder so many of us feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected from ourselves.

Qigong offers a different way.

It’s not another thing to achieve, but a gentle returning – to breath, to body, to presence.

This 15-minute Shaolin Cosmos Qigong practice is simple, yet deeply profound.
Rooted in a 1500-year living lineage, it invites you to harmonise your energy, calm your nervous system, and restore a felt sense of wholeness – all without needing to change who you are or escape your daily life.

In just a short daily practice, you can begin to:

– Release the build-up of stress and tension
– Find stillness within movement
– Regulate your emotions with more ease
– Feel more centred, grounded and alive
– Cultivate resilience from the inside out
– Improve vitality and immune system function

You don’t need prior experience. You don’t need to push or strive.

All that’s asked is that you practise daily for a week – to experience the real difference Qigong can bring to your life.

Qigong meets you in the midst of your life – not outside of it.
It becomes a quiet companion – helping you move through the day with more clarity, presence and vitality.

Qigong is more than just movement – it's a way of remembering what's already within you.
Through decades of dedicated practice, I’ve come to understand how to go beyond the outer form, allowing the deeper benefits described in the Qigong classics to naturally unfold.

The best place to begin this journey is with the foundation practices – simple, profound movements that gently open the way.

"I always need a way of returning to 'Being mode', to return to a real sense of myself, and to the bigger picture beyond.  I have found a real home here in these classes where that is understood.  Tim has such a wealth of experience, which I feel could take me several lifetimes to learn!"

Protective Qi for a Robust Immune System

"Practising qigong greatly enhances our defence and immune systems and regulates our chemical balance." Grandmaster Wong Kiew Kit

In this four-week course, I will share the ideas, practises and approaches for boosting your Wei Qi and strengthening your natural self-healing ability.

Practices include mind-breath-energy-movement exercises at the physical, emotional, and mental levels, promoting: 

  • Healthy Mind
  • Healthy Body
  • Healthy Energy Flow
  • Healthy Organ Function
  • Healthy Nervous System

Practising Qigong helps strengthen your Wei Qi - the energetic barrier against external pathogens. If you're ill, defensive qi directly influences your recovery process.

Weekly classes in Qigong, Shaolin Arts, live online via Zoom.
