Our ancestors invisibly circle, embrace and shape our lives and destiny. We get tremendous power and skills from them. We also get endless problems and challenges that either overwhelm us or force us to grow.
Taoists have many methods for managing Ancestral Qi to prevent chronic illness, and use them as a tap root into deep earth Qi, where they are buried. Feng Shui was originally a graveyard art designed to protect the vibrational purity of our ancestors, lest their bones send disturbing signals to us (the living). Image: Tavia ito.

MEDICAL & SPIRITUAL QIGONG Level 3 & 4 Internal Qi Breathing and Bone Rooting & Breathing
To Heal Our Ancestral Issues
– Michael Winn and wife Jem Minor
SHORT OVERVIEW OF WORKSHOP (long description below)
Day 1: Learn 3 types of Taoist breathing: Natural, Reverse, and Counter-force. Powerful “empty” or neutral force breathing method can be done anywhere, standing, sitting, lying. Opens belly center/dantien, the key to good chi circulation and self-healing. Standing and moving postures to open core channels of body. My simplified version of Iron Shirt Qigong.
Learn Ocean, Sky, & Great Heart Qigong Breathing, aka Blissful Breathing Qigong. This form activates the Mystical Power of Three, that unites physical breath with subtle body breath in all three dantian. A short 5-minute form that packs a tremendous wallop.
Day 2: Bone marrow breathing, rooting power, and simple bone-to-bone tapping.
Excellent for grounding, preventing & healing chronic illness due to blood deficiency, osteoporosis, and many others. Stabilizes stillness for meditators, develops root for all movement artists (dance or martial arts). This bone work is the prelude to completing bloodline ancestral issues.
Open to all, no prerequisites. Useful to have Fundamentals 1&2, but they can be taken in reverse order as well.
Cost: $144. weekend. $90. for Sat. only, or reviewers (both days).

——————————————————————–,
Dear Lovers of Ancestral Healing,
It is a common intuition that our bones are connected to our ancestors. In the Taoist view, the 12 organ and bowel spirits are more connected to our moment-to-moment changes of emotion, thought, and personality.
It is our breath and our bones that are seen as portals for our ancestors to express themselves within our body.
Taoists developed special methods to cultivate the Qi of the breath and the bones. When these are harmonized and awakened, we are able to shift ancestral issues from our deep subconscious into an open dialog.
In the Chinese view, ancestors are not really “dead”. They just don’t have a physical body any longer, and so are forced to seek completion through the bodies of the living. That puts a huge pressure on many people. In my clinical experience, the majority of issues are ancestral in origin. So if we can get them into conscious dialog, that is HUGE.
I believe ancestral feelings of IN-completion are the major part of what we call our Shadow Side. This is the psychic baggage that was the price of our incarnation into a particular family line. This has nothing to do with past lives, with which it is often confused.
If you want to explore this in a very grounded, practical way, I invite you to attend the workshop. If you cannot, get the homestudy DVDs and Audio. It will make a significant difference in your abilitiy to manage your energy level.

INTERNAL Qi BREATHING
— Get more energy from every breath you take!
— Allows breathing to be effortless, deep, & spontaneous.
— Erase fatigue — breathe your Way to bliss in 5 minutes.
— Secret of linking physical breath to Energy Body channels.
The 9 Major Benefits of INTERNAL Qi BREATHING (Fundamentals 3):
Opens up our ability to breathe – not just air, but Life Force. This radically improves our ability to “breathe in our experience of life”. It gives us the strength to keep on living and trust in the flow of Life.
Quickly recharges our body-mind in just five short minutes. Internal breathing practices can be done 24/7 anywhere – in bed, sitting in office, during qigong.
Simple standing postures detoxify blocked energies and stressed emotions. Key to letting go, even if your monkey mind still wants to hold on.
Mixes our spinal fire and chest water energies to activate a completely safe, grounded kundalini feeling of inner warmth in our belly. It does this by capturing the flow of “empty force” (kong jing) or Original Breath (yuan chi) in deep energy channels & centers that are usually unconscious and cannot be touched by acupuncture or ordinary external qigong breathing methods (waidan gong).
Easy fast method to build grounding essential for energy healers, meditators, martial artists, dancers, yogis – everyone needs more grounding for comfortable flow of energy and to keep their sanity!
Get in touch with your power to breathe internally by relaxing into the pause between breaths. You literally reduce need for physical oxygen yet at the same time increase energy flow!
Creates a profound spiritual feeling of inner balance and harmony. How? Tao Mystical Power of Three cosmology is embodied in a simple qigong breathing form. It unites the Heaven, Earth, & Human Sage within us; 3 energy centers of body, 3 Treasures of Essence, Breath, & Spirit (jing, chi, shen), and the 3 phases of chi (yin, yang, yuan).
Put a Tiger in your meditation tank! Lay a solid foundation for deeper levels of meditation (neigong) & alchemical inner elixir cultivation (neidan). Even advanced practitioners of other qigong breathing systems will find it stimulating and filled with new insights.
This video demonstrates the simple power of mind to direct Qi flow through bone structure into the earth.
Some viewers online thought it was some kind of fake magic trick. In fact it can be learned by anyone willing to train their mind-as-Qi relationship.

The Major Benefits of Bone Awakening (Fundamentals 4):
Opens up our ability to expand the space inside and breathe inside our bones. Bone breathing moves the deep “jing” or sexual essence that shapes our body and health. A new sense of aliveness is born within our core self. When the bones are awake, the rest of you runs more effortlessly. You pump fresh hormones and life into your blood.
Five standing postures calm your monkey mind. The anxious thoughts and distractions are re-directed into your bones and the earth. Some ‘empty mind’ standing postures drive the monkey crazy. The dynamic nature of bone breathing keeps the monkey engaged in a positive process and gradually brought to stillness.
Excellent for women seeking to avoid or heal osteoporosis. Bones waste away because we don’t live inside them. Women lose blood monthly, and this exhausts the jing (= stem cell) supply in the bones that converts itself into blood. Hormonal precursors are produced inside the bones. Learn to manufacture what you need for good health – supplements are not enough. Isometric pressure on bone muscle + chi flow is what works.
Increase your flexibility and stretch-ability with tendon and joint qigong. You never grow old if you stay limber. Spine, arm & legs & finger and toe joints all get a beautiful and quick tune-up.
Prevent and heal arthritis – the bane of old age (and young age for some). Joints are like spark plugs between the bones – they need cleaning regularly to keep your “spark” in life. My top joint qigong exercises, collected over 20 years search.
Learn to clear up and access ancestral issues. This is just beginning level of this work, being able to witness how many emotional and health issues are really blood – ancestral – genetic. But they can be changed by vibrating the bone marrow and “washing” it. Higher level marrow washing method is Lesser and Greater Water & Fire alchemy (Kan & Li).
Open up deeper level of internal chi breathing, between 1) bones and the dantian, 2) dantian and mingmen (gate of life) where you convert formless chi into your body & mind, and 3) internal counterforce breathing between crown of head (bai hui) and perineum (hui yin). This is deep, blissful experience of core self.
Allows healing of many chronic illnesses or alleviates their severity, including cancer. The deepest imbalances in our organs and tissues get gradually pushed down into our bone marrow. Releasing the trapped sickness from the bones can product swift (“miraculous”) healing beyond the comprehension of western doctors. 3500 scientific studies prove Qigong’s power to prevent & heal chronic illness.
