Symphony of Radiance: Movement, Music & the Five Elements

Expand your self-care practice with this unique online experience blending Tai Chi, intuitive music, art, nature, and intentional tea rituals. Symphony of Radiance brings together seated and standing forms inspired by Master Moy Lin Shin—including the 108 Moving Meditation, Sabre, and Lok Hup—to open blocked pathways, increase mobility, support circulation and lymph flow, and cultivate whole-body wellbeing. This series is ideal for beginners, those returning to practice, or anyone navigating pain, stiffness, or low energy.

Dr. Michelle Greenwell, CIH BioEW, guides you through posture power, integrative movement patterns, and the BioEnergetic Wellness Formula to support daily habits grounded in vitality and resilience. Intuitive musician Colin MacLeod of Scotland offers live soundscapes crafted in the moment to deepen inner awareness and accelerate transformation.

A remarkable creative team enriches the journey each week:

Donna Hutchison – Harpist and wellness practitioner drawing from music therapy and vibrational healing
Brenda Bowen Cox – Musical therapist with deep experience in neonatal, hospice, and palliative care
Marian Egan – Energetic artist capturing class frequencies in symbolic, healing-infused artwork
Tanya Levy – Nature photographer offering grounding images to connect you to the rhythms of Mother Nature

This series is framed through the Five Element Theory, exploring Ko and Shen cycles and nurturing new patterns of wellbeing through movement, sound, and imagery. You can find this information in the Touch for Health knowledge.

As a special addition, the Cape Breton Tea Company will host a Tea with Intention segment each week. Participants may purchase:

The full set of teas and companion book for the complete experience, or
A sample set of weekly teas to enjoy during class

No experience is necessary. Seated and standing options are available, and gentle 40% effort is encouraged for those with pain, injury, or low energy.

“My Little Black Book of Energy” e-Book and Videos

Steven Crosby — Tue, 30 Apr 2024 13:23:12 +0000

Embark on a transformative journey with Michelle Greenwell in “My Little Black Book of Energy.”

Drawing from over a decade of initial exploration and discovery, Michelle shares her favorite tips and tools to revitalize your life. This book chronicles Michelle’s inspiring path to regaining health, learning to strengthen her feet, walking again, and infusing her life with newfound energy.

Filled with personal experiences, this narrative intertwines practices from Dance, Tai Chi, Touch for Health, and more. Key to this journey is the Feet First System, with in-depth exploration of tools from both Set 1 and Set 2. Through practical guidance, learn how to assess posture, shift emotional blocks, and use movement to unlock new opportunities.

Michelle also shares some of her favourite Tai Chi moves, as well as dance moves and patterns. This book inspires you to get moving and to realize the potential you have in health through movement.

If you’ve ever attributed your fatigue to simply “getting older,” Michelle challenges you to reconsider. With empowering insights and actionable advice, she introduces a fresh mindset where “because I can” becomes your mantra. Discover how to harness energy and live vibrantly with Michelle’s Little Black Book of Energy.

There are accompanying videos for many of the exercises shared in the book. Details on how to download these videos will be shared with the purchase.

This is a great resource for educators or leaders wanting to share more with their students, team mates, staff, or colleagues.

Follow along with the exercises listed in the book. These videos will provide you with a visual of the details that go with each exercise. Try to do the exercise on your own so you can begin to get it into your own body. For review, watch yourself in the mirror to check stance and positioning. If you always watch the video you will never process the info through muscle memory in the body. Watch and try it, then do it on your own. Check in the mirror to see your alignment, and then review again with the video.

Please remember that these exercises you explore at your own risk. Use a mirror to make sure you have the correct alignment, work within your limits, and consult your physician or physiotherapy specialist to determine if there are any specifics you should be aware of before moving.

Patience is key to learning new skills and building a new relationship with your body. Start slow, check alignment and movement details, review using a mirror for a visual cue, and stay within your physical abilities. Coordination will come with time and experience, so have patience when you find patterns that are not so easy to work with. And, most of all, remember to smile to relax the body, and have fun!
