Seasons of Life

Based on John Kirkwood’s landmark book The Way of the Five Seasons, this three day experience brings the wisdom of the Five Elements off the page and right into your life.

Following an introduction, we will immerse ourselves in each of the Five Elements in turn. Together we will invoke the vibration of each Element through movement, music, meditation, inquiry, exercises and activities that invite the qualities of the Element into the space. In the field thus created, we can experience our relationship with the Element, see our strengths, understand our struggles. All this in a safe space with like-minded others who are committed to self-understanding.

The seminar will include:

• A brief outline of the principles of the Five Element cycle
• Explanation of the importance of the Resonances of the Elements
• A guided meditation practice for each of the Elements
• Movement and Qigong exercises that relate to each Element
• Supporting the organs of each Element
• Inquiry into our relationship to the emotions of the Elements
• Recognising the gifts of the Elements
• Understanding how struggles are portals to change

There is no prerequisite for this course.

This seminar was first offered in Adelaide in October 2026 and was a great success. While I have retired from teaching the Five Element Acupressure program, I am open to offering this Immersion Experience again in other cities. If this is something that interests you, let me know in the Contact box below. If there is enough interest from others in your city, I will look at arranging a reprise of the event.
