Qigong, Channeling, and the Healing Power of Music

Summary: A conversation about Qigong, channeling, and how spiritual insight can be integrated into everyday life. The discussion also explores oneness, free will, music, intuition, and the ongoing process of awakening.

Questions This Interview Explores

  • How can Qigong support healing, intuition, and spiritual development?
  • What does it feel like when guidance begins to flow through as writing or teaching?
  • How do we discern authentic inner guidance from mental noise or confusion?
  • How can awakening be integrated with ordinary human life, relationships, and work?
  • What role do music, devotion, and service play in deepening consciousness?

Courtney began her path as a seeker at a young age, progressing to the point that these teachings began to flow through her, effortlessly and with complete love and joy, starting at age 16. In the beginning, the wisdom was received for her own evolution and understanding, but after a short time she was guided to share it with as many people as possible through a book. Teachings from God: Greeting Your Soul and Revealing the Divine Within has given Courtney the inspiration and tools to create the life that excites her, and more than anything she wants to inspire you to do the same.

In addition to authoring Teachings from God, Courtney is a musician and leads Kirtan, and is also a qigong practitioner of 13 years, hoping to become a qigong master one day.

Kirtan, also called Bhakti yoga (yoga of devotion) is a call-and-response style of yoga chanting that includes both the musicians and the audience. You can find her original music and live Kirtans on her YouTube channel.
