About Summer Retreat Workshops (Online)
Join us virtually to experience the transformative teachings of Tao Garden in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and connect with the vibrant energy of this unique place from wherever you are. You will learn directly from Grandmaster Mantak Chia through live online sessions and feel the powerful effects of his Energy Transmissions, designed to enhance your spiritual growth.
Weeks 1-3: Taoist Fundamentals
The workshops for the first three weeks focus on Taoist Fundamentals – the inner work of Taoist practitioners known as Inner Alchemy. Through guided online practices, you will discover how to awaken Healing Energy with Tao techniques, including breath work, meditation, and energy cultivation exercises—all adapted for an immersive virtual experience.
Weeks 4-7: Taoist Healing Techniques
The following four weeks dive into Taoist Healing practices, featuring Cosmic Healing and the Chi Nei Tsang massage technique. Chi Nei Tsang is a Taoist organ detox massage that traditionally focuses on the abdominal area, blending Chinese and Thai massage with meditation principles. While this is a hands-on practice, our online program will guide you through its foundational concepts and self-application techniques. You’ll learn how to direct awareness to your major organs, release tension, and unlock the body’s natural healing potential. This unique approach, developed by Master Mantak Chia, offers protocols that stand apart from other healing modalities and can be explored remotely with expert instruction.

Program
Week 1 | 4-7 July | In Depth Inner Alchemy Practices + Energy Transmission| Beginner-friendly
- — Transform stress into vitality
- — Balance your emotions
- — Develop grounding and feel centered
You will learn foundational practices: Inner Smile, Six Healing Sounds, Microcosmic Orbit. It will bring you back to your body wisdom and awaken your Qi/life-force energy.
Inner Smile: Use the power of smiling to activate the relaxation response in the parasympathetic nervous system. Get rid of the negative emotion and rebalance the positive emotion.
Six Healing Sounds practice has a special sound for each of the organs, the special healing color, positive emotion and special position for each sound. These will help you to restore good health and will help with the connection to the primordial force.
Microcosmic Orbit: Opening Qi flow in the energy pathways. It will help draw in more primordial force from the earth through the soles of the feet up to the spine and from the universe through the crown to combine in the lower Tan Tien (abdominal area), the heart and the brain.
Master Chia will do the Energy Transmission during this week. Many students practicing with Master Chia have witnessed the power of Violet Light and Primordial Sound and begun their initial healing.
Week 2 |11 - 14 July | In-Depth Sexual Alchemy, Healing Love
You will learn how to:
- — Recycle your sexual energy to increase health & longevity
- — Improve your quality of life and love-making
- — Become multi-orgasmic
Sexual energy provides an extremely powerful means for physical rejuvenation and accessing a higher spiritual energy. Master Chia unveils how to recycle your life-essence in order to increase longevity, improve your quality of life and love-making. More sexual energy will help to attract and multiply the primordial Qi.
Men learn how to control ejaculation and to transform the sexual energy into Qi and then transform it up to spirit force. Women learn how to control menstruation and transform the blood into Qi and likewise transform it up to spirit force.
The Single and Dual Cultivation practices in the Aroused & Unaroused State conserve and transform sexual energy while refreshing and rejuvenating the body’s vital functions. Ovarian and Testicle Breathing techniques, Scrotum and Ovarian Compression, Power Lock, Big Draw, and Valley Orgasm enhances sexual fulfillment and physical improvement as vital energy is exchanged with one’s partner with the indiscriminate loss of emotional and sexual energy.
We recommend a prior knowledge of the practices of Week 1 for participating in Week 2.
Week 3 | 18-21 July | Fusion I
You will learn how to:
- Detect the negative emotional energies in your organs and counterbalance the negative emotions
- Link your sense organs with their “mother” organs
- Crystalize your emotional energy into a “pearl”, circulate this energy and attract more healing energy from high-frequency sources
Fusion means mixing and fusing things to create something new. In our Taoist practices, we combine emotions, natural forces, life forces, etc., into one energy we can use.
Fusion of the Five Elements 1 allows you to control the energy of your inner universe to facilitate the connection with the energy of the Grand Universe. You will learn how to capture negative emotions and merge them. You will then learn how to bring in all the positive emotions and combine everything to create a better energy balance.
We recommend a prior knowledge of the practices of Week 1 for participating in Week 3.
Week 4 | 25 - 28 July | Cosmic Healing I and Buddha Palm Qigong (Palm and Finger training)
You’ll learn how to:
- — Channel energy to heal the body - on yourself first and then learning how to heal others
- — Project Qi to detoxify and rejuvenate major organ systems
- — Root sick energy into the earth and disperse it into the Universe to be decomposed and recycled by the planets
Cosmic Healing I is a practice of channeling pure cosmic Qi for healing. The experience with healing energy can give you a feeling of energetic buoyancy, recharging you with pure Cosmic Qi.
Master Chia will teach how to channel energy for healing the body and through working with a partner, how to heal ourselves and others.
Buddha Palm Qigong consists of four sets of simple postures and movements for absorbing the life force energy of nature and the universe. By practicing this art, you can learn to take color-healing Qi from space into yourself or to direct it from the source straight to others for healing. Each of the four sections develops a different type of energy mastery.
Usually, when we touch the student, we pick up negative energy. Buddha Palm practice will teach you how to ground the negative energy to the earth and disperse it into the Universe to be decomposed and recycled by the planets.
We recommend a prior knowledge of the practices of Week 1 for participating in Week 4.
Week 5 | 1 August - 5 August | Chi Nei Tsang I Internal Organ Massage
You’ll learn how to:
- — Release and clear blockages, toxins, excessive heat and negative emotions deep within
- — Release long-held stress in the body for optimum vitality
- — Strengthen the immune system.
Chi Nei Tsang is a Taoist organ detox massage, with a focus on the abdominal area. It’s famous for its exceptional effectiveness and immediate benefits – one of the most powerful treatment modalities available.
It removes physical and emotional blockages to return body systems to healthy functioning. Each organ contains part of the primordial force. When an organ’s accumulated negative emotions and toxins are released, the organ can more effectively draw in the primordial force and regenerate itself. These can constrict the flow of Qi, resulting in physical ailments.
Week 6 | 8 - 12 Aug | Chi Nei Tsang II Chasing the winds
Recommended knowledge of CNT I
You’ll learn how to:
- Chase the 10 winds, discharging them from the body
- Activate the acupressure points and pulse points
- Project good Qi into the vital organs and glands
Advance with Chi Nei Tsang 2 which makes great use of the elbow technique working mainly with the trapped winds of the body. This eliminates blockages of Qi in the body and improves lymphatic and blood flow. You will learn about the Twelve Winds, how to chase and discharge them from the body and how to inject good Qi back into the vital organs and glands.
Massage tools for this week are optional, you can purchase them here.
