Moxie™ Qigong Wellness for People Living with Cancer
Hosted in partnership with Bay Area Cancer Connections, this zoom series will be held September 28, October 5 & 12,2021 from 10-11:30am PT
This workshop is designed for people living with cancer who want to learn how to unlock their own healing super-powers. Directly translated as “the practice of energy,” Qigong is mindfulness-in-motion; a dynamic, moving meditation often referred to as the "art of effortless power." The exercises incorporate breathing, gentle stretching and peaceful, flowing movements to achieve a state of balance between the mind, spirit, and body. Qigong is one of the highest forms of self-care as it returns your body to it’s incredible, innate healing capacity and is used extensively as a complementary medical treatment for cancer.
Meet Kate the founder
I am a Neuroscientist, a Wholistic Wellness Coach, and a Qigong teacher. I discovered my own Moxie when I was in treatment for breast cancer. The incredible practice of Qigong, together with important lifestyle changes, and the support I received through creating a healing community, helped me transform my stress, pain, and trauma into a sense of peace, healing, and renewed energy. I discovered the strength and the life-changing tools I needed to finish treatment, thrive, and create a life I truly love.
Now, my mission is to coach other women living with cancer in this powerful, comprehensive system of self-care, that teaches you how to integrate simple, mind and body practices into a self-healing lifestyle that will sustain you throughout your life. I'm passionate about helping women discover their own power to face difficulty with spirit and courage, and to heal with Moxie.
I created Her Moxie to connect women living with cancer to their courage, tenacity, fortitude and amazing self-healing powers.
Self-care is one of the most critical components of dealing with cancer throughout the continuum of care. Treat your mind, body, and spirit in unison to lift yourself beyond the mode of survival, and empower your healing ability to experience the fullness of life again. Remember, a disease does not define who you are as a whole being.
Root your actions around the evidence-based science behind why your breath and oxygen are the foundations of life. Craft deep moments of elevated energy, and feel replenished, rejuvenated, and happy again.
Share in your experiences with other women who understand your journey and will support you through every step of the way. You will not be alone as you look beyond this disease with a renewed sense of life and purpose.
As a breast cancer survivor, I know what it’s like to struggle after being diagnosed and how much learning about Wholistic self-care transformed my healing process.
Her Moxie is designed to teach you how to live a fulfilling life, no matter where you are on your journey with cancer, and heal like the heroine you are. I would love to coach and support you through all stages of cancer treatment. Together, we will redefine your story, and help you thrive in your journey forward.

What is Qigong?
Directly translated as “the practice of energy,” Qigong is mindfulness in motion, a dynamic, moving meditation often referred to as the "art of effortless power." The easy-for-anyone exercises incorporate breathing, gentle stretching and peaceful, flowing movements to achieve a state of balance between the mind, spirit, and body. Qigong is the highest form of self-care on the planet as it returns your body to its incredible innate healing power, and is used extensively as a complementary medical treatment for chronic diseases, including cancer.
Return your body to its natural, balanced state to support your journey through recovery.
Overcome the challenges of living with cancer by grounding yourself from within.
Balance and recenter yourself with your breath, and reach new levels of energy and peace.
An ancient Chinese health care system and healing practice, Qigong has been used by millions of people to prevent and treat illness and disease for optimal longevity. When diagnosed with a disease, our bodies are living in a constant state of stress and imbalance. Qigong supports the body's natural tendency to return to balance and equilibrium by opening blockages in the body through which our life-energy (known as "qi") flows, harmonizing the mind, body, and spirit.
Doctors have extensively studied and shown the positive effects of Qigong, specifically for cancer patients going through surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and medication. Regular Qigong practice can help alleviate many of the side-effects of treatment, including its negative effects on pain, energy, mood, sleep, appetite, and can even help prevent recurrence.
“As a leader, healer, and teacher of a new movement that’s redefining the cancer healing experience for women, Kate’s guidance and wisdom helped me through the scary unknown through her expertise and her personal experience. Knowing I had the support of someone who understood my journey was invaluable.”
