Hello,

5 animal frolics is a good set especially with children you can create imagination of becoming the animal. Any form of Centering Meditation and any of the movement forms that Healing Tao promotes here are not complicated. Short form Tai Chi is good also.

Encourage creativity and fun with children; there not like adult practitioners…[Read more]

Hi,

Been doing these practice’s since the 1980’s was in the groups taught by Mantak & Maneewan Chia long ago…also friends with Juan Li, Ron Diana(RIP)and know Michael and many others from many years ago.Every teacher has their experiences, nowhere do I see gratitude for making the teachings available. I can remember when there was sparse or…[Read more]

Hi,
A complicated question..that comes with complicated answers. Much of this goes with age and ability. It is also a very opinionated belief among people who practice these traditions. Common sense comes into play here with being able to keep the body physically strong but with not going overboard, which could lead to damaging you’re body. Its…[Read more]

Hi,

Just wanted to say, when I ran across the hardcopy version, I was suprised to see any metion at all; considering there are many teachers in the scholar community at any given chance to try and discredit Mantak Chia’s efforts or even take it serious. This has been going on for years, I heard it back in the 1980’s and just last week. My…[Read more]

Hi frechtling,

The “100 days” is a common theme in many traditions,it can be considered one of four steps depending on the traditions/lineage or teacher. Regular practice will be ideal to practice daily; but if you miss a day to whatever reason, one should not be guilty or beat one self up in the process. Work with the cycle of 100 days.

“Original”=Yuan

Hi Xiaofa,

I think all the previous replies are far more answering then mine to come but here’s my comment:

Been in these practice’s since early 1980’s as well as studied with Lineage Masters in other Lineages of Taoist/ Buddhist practice. I am only going to comment on a couple points here.

Hi Kongming,

I have been in the study and practice of Taoism and Buddhism since the early 1980’s; been through the traditional training through Religious Taoism & Buddhism.. there are many pro’s and cons. It will take much dedication and resolve to see it through. There’s alot of stages of proving yourself, Asian hazing to prove your worth to…[Read more]

Teachers I know with great knowledge on this would be Shou Yu Liang, Sam Masich, Henry Look (was a student of Han Xingyuen), students of Kuo Lien Ying. The problem you might run into is that once you begin asking about specialized skills within a lineage, many teachers will clam up. Especially if you are not Asian, as open as things are getting…[Read more]

Thanks Steven for your kind words; its good to see the forum is still here.

Michael,

Sorry for your loss of your wife in the physical form; this is the best tribute I have ever been fortunate to be part of. I will also say that is one the best writings I have read on transition in recent time.

It also reminds me of when Ron Diana had passed away and how Healing Tao practitioners stay connected to the spirit of…[Read more]

Mantras, syllables, sounds are effective for clearing and balancing energy of the body; helps unblock, resolve and dissolve issue and polarized patterns. Tao teachings on this split in two schools ceremonial (taoism)religon and tao (individual).

I would recommend the practices that are geared more towards self healing and not so much…[Read more]

Hi depending on what path of the Traditions you follow it can vary; each path has its own beliefs and rituals, ceremonies etc…but most of the followers of rituals observe in 10th lunar month on 14th day fuxi founder of forcasting system i ching.
