Are You Energetically Grounded?

January 19, 2017 by //  by TaoDeveloper

Healing Tao USA

Chi Flows Naturally

 

 

How well rooted are you, energetically? Physical & spiritual health depends on it. This Banyan Tree, on Hawaii’s Big Island, is not shy about extending its roots.

 

Dear Lovers of Deep Earth Rooted-ness,

It’s that time of the year again: the chi is moving down, into winter, into dark earth. For some people, this darkness is depressing. Although I personally have a “sunny” disposition, the Tao has taught me to love this darkening. In my chi cultivation practice, I go with the direction of chi flow, and do both movement and meditation practices that focus on rooting, especially this time of the year.

Tao is about listening to your body, and following the Way of Nature. Nature itself defines “grounded-ness”. We could say that Tao is the invisible or spiritual ground of physical Nature, traditionally called the Body of the Tao. The single most common challenge I find in people, whether they are on a spiritual path or not, is lack of grounding.

Lack of grounding adversely affects both physical and spiritual health. This is especially critical at a time when the planet is quickening its vibration, an integral part of its global re-birthing process.

I always schedule my Internal Chi Breathing and Bone Rooting workshop in December (this year Dec. 3-4, in Asheville). It is simply easier to teach it in late Fall/ early Winter, as I’m supported by the flow of the larger chi field rooting down into the earth.

In this seminar, also available as homestudy, I devote one day to learning natural, reverse, and counter-force breathing. Breathing opens the “root” of the body, which is the lower dantian (lit.”elixir field”), a.k.a. the belly center. I’ve found that when you are grounded in your breathing, then your emotional and mental bodies quickly get more grounded.

A strong “belly-root” creates a feeling of calmness and peace, even when things are chaotic around you. I developed a special qigong form, Ocean, Sky, & Great Heart Breathing,  to speed up the rooting process. This shifts your breathing focus from gasping at outer air to breathing more internally, through chi channels in different layers of the body. This form, nicknamed “Blissful Breathing Qigong”, is the best “quick-energizer” qigong that I teach

The second day at this workshop I spend working on opening up the bones in our body, using bone breathing, bone beating, bone compression, and bone spiralling. These are all part of the Iron Shirt method I learned from Mantak Chia, but adapted into some different standing postures. These deepen the breathing power of our bones, and help to both prevent and heal chronic illness. Much chronic illness is simply “sick chi” stored in our bone marrow.

When we breathe it out, the sickness goes away. What appeared to be terminal illness, gradually becomes forgotten. This is why qigong has such a good reputation (based on track record) of healing chronic illness in China. This reputation is well documented scientifically (see 3500 studies summary: https://healingtaousa.com/cgi-bin/articles.pl?rm=mode2&articleid=40).

In the Breathing and Rooting course I describe the two different kinds of grounding that people commonly need, which are quite different. One is grounding into the physical earth below our feet, and correspondingly, into the physical tissue of our body. The second is energetic grounding into your meridians and the core channels that define your Energy Body.

If you want to read more about this, check out my Medical and Spiritual Qigong Fundamentals 3 & 4 page: https://healingtaousa.com/ckf3.html.

If you want to attend the course (it’s only $144. for the weekend), call Jan at 888 999 0555 or email info@healingtaousa.com.

9 Tao Gift Ideas, + Big Sale: Books & DVDs

 

First, 9 Tao Gift ideas that promote health and spiritual growth:

1. The Ultimate Dream Gift – a Trip to China

 
One of China’s best kept secrets, Three Pure Ones Sacred Taoist Mountain.

If you really want to wow someone with the Ultimate Dream Gift, send them on the China Dream Trip next May 18 – June 8, 2012. No-cost financing is available for those who need it – don’t let money get in the way of spiritual adventure.

This year is very special – two new sacred Taoist mountains. the fabulous Double Dragon Cave, a 3 day retreat at a 1500 year old Shang Qing (Great Clarity) Golden Flower Taoist temple. Plus the Great Wall of China, Temple of Heaven, White Cloud Temple, Hangzhou’s Westlake, Terra Cotta Army, Xian’s 8 Immortals Temple, AND my wedding atop Flower Mountain (Huashan).

A $600. deposit reserves your gift spot on the best Taoist sacred mountain trip to China available. Some people have given this to their spouse or older children as a gift, and sometimes people give it to themselves for a birthday present. I really love this trip, it is always so rich, both the people who come and the sacred places we visit. This Year of the Water Dragon Dream Trip will be especially unique.

Because of the wedding, a lot of family and senior Tao friends have already signed up. The trip is filling quickly, so please don’t delay in signing up.

2. A Fabulous Tao Summer Retreat

Primord.Silbury.sunrise_1
Photo: Come play in the fabulous chi fields of Mars Hill, in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Asheville, NC.

We’ve just listed the 2012 Summer schedule of retreats elsewhere in this newsletter (soon to be on the web at httt://www.healingtaoretreats.com). We have something for everyone, from energy healing, every possible kind of qigong, martial arts like bagua and tai chi, sexual energy cultivation, many levels of Tao alchemy meditation.

The place is special, the courses are wonderful, and the folks who are attracted are fabulous people. This is YOUR community.

HM.Laughingfolks

Our summer retreats are located in Mars Hilll, at a cool  but sunny 2500 foot elevation in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina. These are FUN, low-cost, high-energy, top quality retreats that will transform your life and deliver you a spiritual community to love for the rest of your life. I believe it is the biggest and best program of Tao Arts in the world, with an amazingly diverse and talented faculty.

Tuition has not been raised, $495. for the fifth year in a row – and it was already a bargain. These retreats are financially subsidized by my 501c3 non profit. All meal plans are optional in 2012. No-cost extended payment plans make it accessible to everyone. Give yourself or someone else the gift of self-transformation, only need a $150. deposit.

You may also email the registrar at: info@HealingTaoRetreats.com.

 

3. Michael’s Qigong DVD & Homestudy Courses – BIG DISCOUNT!

      SEX.chikung.cover       TaoDream

Voted “best qigong art” in America….but can you judge a DVD by its cover?

I have been refining and improving my integration of qigong and Taoist inner alchemy for 30 years. You are safe in giving an introductory DVD (only $24.95) like Five Animals Play the Six Healing Sounds. Or give a more in-depth course as a quality gift, like the medical and spiritual Qigong Fundamentals 1 & 2 package (2 DVDs +11 audio CDs, at half price). The course now includes the Spinning Dragon Orbit method. It may deeply change someone’s life or give them the tools to improve their health.

To make it easier financially, I’m offering big discounts on the already heavily discounted web prices. I have kept prices low and offer periodic discounts because I prefer that everyone be able to afford these precious giftts of cultivating the Life Force. I know some folks are on a tight budget, so I hope these hefty discounts will allow them to stock up on a year’s worth of spiritual homework.

On any order of Michael Winn DVD or homestudy audio courses. Sale continues until midnite, Saturday, December 31, 2011.

1. 15% off any order of $75. or more (before s/h).

2. 20% off order of $150. or more.

3. 25% off order of $300. or more.

4. 30% off order of $600. or more.

We all know that Santa lives at the North Pole (a myth stolen from Finland’s Saami shamans, who use flying reindeer as their power animals). Did you know that China’s classic Lao-tzu Longevity figure, with his long white beard and beaming smile, is known as “South Pole Sage of Long Life”?

I guarantee that all gifts ordered from my site will be delivered by a smiling Lao-Tzu riding his team of five-colored dragons from the South Pole.

4. “My Body Moves Easily” — Joyce’s Feldenkrais-Tai Chi Audio CDs

My Body Moves Easily: I Feel Graceful and Light  by Joyce Gayheart

These wonderful guided super-learning Feldenkrais-Tai Chi audios by Joyce Gayheart have  been specially adapted for Primordial Qigong (aka Tai Chi for Enlightenment), but suitable for helping any Tai Chi form become effortless and graceful.

Joyce weaves her magic mostly while you are lying down, with no struggle against gravity. She’s intertwined her knowledge of qiqong and Alexander and Feldenkrais and decades of studying movement arts and expression into these masterful guided exercises.

You can buy the CDs individually or get a $20. discount by getting the 4-CD set. If someone doesn’t have the Primordial Qigong DVD, or my Advanced Level audio training packaged together for a big saving, you might consider giving those as well. Or buy the package, keep the Primordial DVD for yourself, and give the Audio CDs away…. after listening to them first.

www.TaiChi-Enlightenment.com/#JGPF

I will sneak in a mention here of two other fabuous gifts from Joyce. One is her Divine Love Elixir ($30), 72 alchemical flower essences in a single bottle that really open the heart.  www.healingdao.com/JoyceGayheart/flower_essences.html

The other is one of the most interesting books on fate and destiny ever written. It’s by 12 astrologers blindly reading Joyce’s chart, called Under One Sky ($24.95) by Rafi Nasser. Joyce’s life story is along side their readings, so you can compare and decide if astrology is true or not. www.healingdao.com/JoyceGayheart/Joyce_Book.html

 

5. Goji Super Tonic: Feel “Healthy, Happy, & Horny”

 

Goji plump red berries are appropriate to the holidaiy season because when fresh picked they look like mistletoe’s red berries. It is festive drink, mixable with just about anything. The Total Goji (thick sauce like pulp of the berry) is the healthiest topping you can put on yoghurt or ice cream – a great replacement for sugar addicts.

Last year I gave a bottle of goji to each of my six siblings, except one sister, who I got something different for her kids. She pined so loudly about not getting the Goji fix that I had to later give her some for her birthday….

This is a great edible or drinkable gift to give someone who is trying to wean themselves off coffee and caffeine and sugar. Goji juice gets you high – permanently. No crash. and SUPER-nutritious, the highest ORAC (anti-oxidant count) of any food in the world. Although I will soon be introducing another super-juice made from Coffeeberry that has an Orac double of goji! But goji is still the Queen of the Herbal Tonics.

It is the one of the major tonic Chinese herbs for building your kidneys and liver. The list of health benefits is so long you’ll never be able to remember it all – but I do give 34 of reasons to drink goji on my website.

This is currently the only food item on my site, and its because I am super-picky. This is the ONLY 100% organic natural nothing added Goji juice on the market. Nothing I’m saying about goji is hype (unlike some of the multi-level companies plugging fruit-juice sweetened goji). I drink this goji juice every day, and recommend it to all my students to offset the stress of modern life and poor diet. It’s far more powerful to drink the juice than to eat the berries or get it in powdered herbs.

I sell the goji at the lowest price the manufacturer will allow. If you order two bottles, you get free shipping, the saving amounts to almost 20%. So keep one bottle for yourself, and the other will look great with a red ribbon around it. The healthiest consumable ever grown, thank you China!

If you want to add 32 oz. bottles of other organic super-Qi juices – Noni, Mangosteen, or Acai – just ask Jan, who will either add it to your order or replace Goji.

Livia.Internal.Cover

Internal Alchemy is only major work by scholars and adepts on the full spectrum of alchemical history and practice. I feel my chapter on Daoist Inner Alchemy in the West is definitive.

Here’s the deal: I sell nine of Prof. Livia Kohn’s books on Daoism (preferred spelling by scholars) on my website. If you order ANY one of those titles, I will ship you a FREE copy of Health and Long Life: The Chinese Way by Livia Kohn and Stephan Jackowicz. She overprinted, and thus I am able to make this generous offer. OR if you buy $25. worth of Mantak Chia books (see later section), I’ll also give you this free book.

The other titles would all make great gifts, about which you can read more on my website:

1. Daoist Body Cultivation (with excellent chapter by me!)

2. Daoism and Chinese Culture

3. Women In Daoism

4. Divine Traces of the Daoist Sisterhood

5. Cosmos and Community:

6. The Way of Highest Clarity

7. Myth and Meaning in Early Daoism.

8. Internal Alchemy: Self, Society,and the Quest for Immorality.

(also with excellent chapter by me!)

9. Health and Long Life: The Chinese Way

11. Sitting in Oblivion by Livia Kohn (about early Taoist meditation method)

BRAND NEW TITLE:

12. Living Authentically: Daoist Contributions to Modern Psychology, ed. Livia Kohn. $29.95

MY REVIEW of this book:

Essential reading for Westerners seeking to integrate qigong, taiji, Daoist meditation, energy healing, and therapy practices with deep psychological insights from their own culture. It gives sharp focus to fuzzy issues: Reichian orgasm theory vs. Dao sex energy cultivation; psychological adjustment vs. wu wei and liberation; heady analytical thinking vs. whole-body process and correlative thinking; Jungian symbolic alchemy within Ego vs. substantial alchemical distillation of an immortal Soul; Western “Unconscious” vs. Primordial Qi model. It’s a breath taking, cutting edge Daoist dialectic with an amazing array of therapies – kinesiology, Energy Psychology, Positive Psychology, Psychosomanautics, Cognitive Therapy, and more. This milestone will be required reading at my own Daoist Depth Psychology program. – Michael Winn

Since Jan in my fulfillment office has no way of knowing if you are responding to this free book offer when you order on the web, you must call her to place a book order and ask for the free bonus book. Offer is good while supply lasts. For full description of each book and order link:

7. Total I Ching: the Gift of Divination

For $14. bucks, this is about as high a value as one could dream for. I think my book review on Amazon says it all. This version of the I Ching has achieved cult status amongst Healing Tao inner alchemy adepts.This book is not yet posted on my site, but I finally got a stack of copies in – so call 888 999 0555 to order it.

I_Chingbook.cover

Reviewed by Michael Winn on Amazon:

As a 30 year I Ching user, teacher of Taoist qigong and inner alchemy meditation, I was very skeptical when yet another I Ching translation arrived in the mail. But I knew Karcher’s scholarship was superb and was hoping for at least a few gems. Was I surprised to discover that this is the best I Ching I’ve ever used – it literally lives up to its name, The Total I Ching.

I used to consult both the Wilhelm (elegant, but too confucian) and Wu Jing-Nuan’s “shamanic” Chou version to get a full spectrum of readings. Karcher’s Total I Ching version is both elegant, scholarly, and shamanic. It brilliantly integrates in the living elements of the shen (spirits) who are actually the agents of change, we could say the “managers” of shifts in the larger chi field that play out in our bodies and lives.

There is only one test of an I Ching, and that is to use it in real life situations and see how “alive” and accurate the responses are for you. I found this version to be far superior to the other readings I previously used. Yin & Yang trigrams can be reduced to abstract and lifeless mathemtical symbols, or they can be experienced as living pulsations, voices from inner space. Total I Ching opens up the voices of the spirits, without losing the bracing clarity of the symbolic language.

I am thrilled to find such a breakthrough work in a field of translations that are generally lacking in spiritual brilliance. Total Ching is a must have for I Ching lovers.

This book redefines the notion of “stocking stuffer”. I sent a copy to my family one year, and they are still chewing on it.

 

8. Jade Egg – Elegant, Sensssssuous Womb-enhancing Gift

  Jade eggs are useful for woman to improve and cultivate the quality of their orgasm.

Jade eggs have a high vibration. The Chinese have always valued jade more than gold because of its balanced yin-yang energy. Jade eggs are preferable because they are sturdy. smooth and non-porous.

Originally Egg Exercises were used for improving health, both physically and spiritually. The Jade Egg “sexercises” provide more power to the Chi Muscle to lift the sexual energy inward and upward, where it can be circulated to the other vital organs and help to balance the monthly flow of blood and daily cycle of hormones. Suitable for both younger women, those recovering from childbirth, and those dealing with menopause or later.

The womb of a female is the most powerful center of gravity in the body. Unfortunately. t he womb tends to concentrate unprocessed (often negative) sexual and emotional energy. The egg “sex-ercises” can help to move that stuck energy and help you to own the inner space of your womb, which is the core power of the divine feminine.

We recently found a new mine with much higher grade deep green jade eggs. The price has thus gone up to $37.95, but well worth it for such an intimate and powerful life-long talisman of sexual vitality.  We now also include a lovely silk bag for protecting and transporting the egg. This is an intimate, elegant, health-enhancing, and sexy gift.

Spinning Dragon Orbit Audio CD available

 

The 80 minute audio CD on how to incorporate Spinning Dragon energy into your Microcosmic Orbit practice is available for ordering. We are in production and will be shipping within a week.

The cost for the CD is $15. plus s/h. This CD covers the Spinning Dragon transmission recorded at the last Qigong Fundamentals workshop in October 2011. It covers how to use the Wudang spinning pearl (aka Red Dragon Method) to capture the planetary dragon force in your personal practice. You are in effect bringing a Macro (collective) force into the Micro-Cosmic (personal) orbit.

This CD will become a standard part of the Qigong Fundamentals 1 & 2 package if you order it going forward. But this CD will NOT be available on the website separately. You must contact Jan my office manager, to order this separately: info@healingtaousa.com or 828 505 1444.

It is available as an upgrade ONLY for people who have previously purchased the Fundamentals 1&2 package or taken my workshop/retreat (please email or tell her approximate date of purchase and under what email address you bought it).

IMPORTANT: This Dragon Orbit CD is totally useless without the rest of the orbit  training. You will NOT be able to practice this orbit method from this CD alone. You must already have trainingin the Wudang Spinning Orbit method; other orbit methods will be useless as background for use with this CD.  Please note, that all sales of this separate CD are final.

Tao of Giving, Receiving & Thanking

 

Thanksgiving is my favorite American ritual celebration. I think it has the least cultural or religious clutter, and is the most grounded, as it is really about appreciating the Earth for its gifts of food and sharing. We’ll ignore what the Pilgrims later did to the Native Americans who fed them…

Here’s my essay (updated) on the Tao of Giving Thanks. It relates to the simple concept of which way the Life Force (chi, or Qi) is flowing. The chi field always has three streams.

The Holy Taoist Trinity of daily life: Yang = Giving, Yin = Receiving, and Yuan = Thanking (Gratitude) for What Is.

I personally am deeply thankful for all that I have Received this last year  — appreciation from you, my dear reader, love from my family and friends, my students, the powerful energy fields we’ve created together on summer retreats. For the amazing blessing of finding my next life partner, Jem, who I plan to marry in China next spring.

For all my qigong and internal alchemy practices that evolve my soul and sustain my good health. I am thankful for the elementals in my home and surrounding Nature who hold form for all beauty and space for all process.

I am grateful for all the marvelous wonders I encounter daily on my path and the pleasures and pains in life that motivate me to continue changing. I’m thankful to the next phase of my spiritual journey, one that I still hope includes Conscious Conception. Grateful that I’ve come to realize it is not about a couple consciously conceiving a child, but about us becoming conscious of the process of how the Great Tao conceives everything.

I am equally grateful for all I have been privileged to Give, in large and small Ways, to creatures tiny as a lady bug I’ve smiled to and huge as a galaxy I hold in my heart. I’m grateful for human lives I’ve helped transform in a few miraculous moments; for the gift of my unique soul’s Presence felt in seen and unseen worlds.

Taoist love a good trinity, and this trinity of Giving, Receiving and Thanking is as holy as any. Giving and Receiving could be seen as yin-yang expressions. We are radiating yang chi out when we give, and cultivating yin chi when we receive. Finding the right balance between the two is a lifetime art. Give too much and we exhaust ourself. Take too much and we are bogged down by possessions or worse, greed limits our ability to love.

Thanking, or feeling gratitude, is a kind of neutral constant. It is the still force that stabilizes yin and yang. Whether we are giving or receiving or hanging out in stillness, what’s important is to do it naturally, as the effortless unfolding of one’s inner nature.

Lao Tzu described this wu wei process as “doing nothing, yet leaving nothing undone”. Gratitude, at its extreme a feeling of awe, is a primal feeling we hold for the Life Force. The Chi (Qi) empowers everything in Heaven and Earth, including the Original Spirit or Creator God of this Cosmos.

I am certain this Primary Creative force feels, on some multi-dimensional scale, humble gratitude for the Wuji, its own Unknowable Source.
