Praise for the Walking Way
“The Walking Way is a clear, lovely guide to bringing awareness to life through movement. I don’t know of anything else like it.”
“Carrie Lafferty brings her personal study to life, offering a rich environment to learn and train in. Few have put into practice these two practices so that they enhance each other.”
“Combining the wisdom of Qi Gong with the somatic education of Feldenkrais, Carrie has a rich and full world view, and knows intimately how each enhances and strengthens the full integrity of consciousness.”
“Carrie Lafferty brilliantly synthesizes three internal systems of mindful body awareness: Feldenkrais, qigong and meditation. Through simple, slow and thoughtful exercises, she brings renewed insight into our daily movements. Accompanied by Qigong meditations, the rhythm of the Chinese 5 elements becomes alive within our body and environment. Her system of inner awareness creates a foundation for becoming truly present in our life.”
“Carrie has been a member of Xin Qi Shen Dojo over 10 years, studying the arts of Yang Taiji Quan and Qi Gong. Her sincerity, dedication, and passion for these arts are expressed equally in her talent as a healer and health facilitator.”

“I love sending my patients to Carrie Lafferty for her masterful blend of Feldenkrais and Qi Gong work. Her extensive experience give her a unique and powerful approach to identifying and correcting the origins of pain and dysfunction.”
“The Walking Way helps subtle and not so subtle habit patterns in everyday movements be noticed. The instructions are both precise and open. They create a powerful movement based mindfulness meditation that goes beyond a simple set of instructions into cultivating inner awareness of the body in motion. The multifaceted integration of mindfulness meditation, Feldenkrais, and Qi Gong creates an extraordinary set of teachings that would help anyone become more alert, relaxed, and agile in their body and mind.”
“The Walking Way is a beautiful and powerful journey into healing. Combining ancient and modern wisdom with a deep sense of compassion, Carrie guides us through portals into worlds of higher consciousness.”
