 Energize yourself in the creative flow of qi with three experts who have 100 years of combined experience in Chinese energy healing.

For thousands of years, adepts have shown how cultivating, storing, and expressing qi—the vital energy of life—can improve health and vitality, increase resilience and creativity, and promote overall well-being. In this Super Qi Weekend, you'll raise your baseline of this vital energy with three modern masters: author and innovator Michael Gelb, qigong and tai chi expert Ken Cohen, and qigong master Robert Peng.

This unique workshop is a living demonstration of the creative flow of qi as Michael, Robert, and Ken inspire and energize you, and one another, through their collaborative, joyful, and spontaneous approach to teaching.

Learn a method to raise your baseline of creative energy in 20 minutes or less with Michael J. Gelb as your guide.

"What's the most powerful practice the average person can do in 20 minutes or less to raise their baseline of creative energy?" Michael J. Gelb, author of How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci, traveled the world asking this simple question of aikido, meditation, qigong, and yoga masters. The result of that quest was the publication by Sounds True of Creativity on Demand in 2013 and the birth of the Super Qi programs at Omega.

Now, for the first time, you're invited to learn the Super Qi empowerment practices while being guided to apply this creative energy to manifest your most important creative project. Whether it's writing your novel or nonfiction book, choreographing or composing, designing a seminar or preparing for a TED Talk, drawing or painting, perfecting and monetizing your invention, or starting a new business or nonprofit, Michael guides you to cultivate your creative energy and your understanding and application of the elements, phases, and tools of the creative process to manifest your greatest dreams and aspirations.

Participants learn potent energy cultivation practices, such as movement, breathing, and visualization exercises. Together, we are guided by Michael in short lectures illuminating the phases, elements, and tools of the creative process, group discussions, and guided practices, including stream-of-consciousness writing, drawing, and mind mapping. You leave with a core energy cultivation practice you can do on your own to turn your creative energy into a tangible, practical reality.
