Please join us in our program series Navigating Diabetes Through Food and Community, a two-week program with online and in-person sessions at the Roxbury Branch. We invite you to join one or many sessions where we will be learning / hearing from professionals who value scientific research and the important role community plays. Whether you have been diagnosed with diabetes, prediabetes, or live with someone with these diagnoses, you are welcome. Registration required for each session.
In this session, Carl Donaldson, DTCM, PhD, MMQ, will speak about the powerful role of Qi Gong movement and meditation to impact diabetes. Carl believes that every person can heal on a physical and emotional level through targeted nutrition, slow body movement, meditation, and breath work. He has grounded his approach in treating his clients and patients in the ancient Eastern philosophies that the ultimate balance in individuals is gained through approaching and treating the whole person through the integration of mind, body, and breath.
To attend this session, please register on the Event website.
Carl Donaldson is the founder and owner of The Healthy Crane Wellness Center located in Arlington, MA. Carl has a Clinical Doctorate degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine from the University of Bridgeport, CT and he earned his PhD and Master of Medical Qi Gong degree from the Three Treasures Holistic School in Miami, FL.
Carl approaches healing through meditation that works with the mind and energetic emotional possibilities and structures we all have. He uses slow body movement and breath work to engage the mind to move through all of the historical traumas we have gathered throughout our time. Carl approaches nutrition to heal the body with the understanding that the body is designed to heal itself.
This event series is presented in partnership with Stop & Shop Nutrition Partners and is funded by Point32Health Foundation.
