Qigong — Inner Alchemy Series 2022
3 Nov – 29 Nov 2022
Tao Garden Workshop with legendary Taoist Master Mantak Chia
Grandmaster Mantak Chia welcomes you to Tao Garden for the 4-week Workshop from November 3rd to 29th, 2022.
Qigong training practice contains 2 main components: Inner Alchemy and physical practice. In this series you will discover Inner Alchemy – the internal work of Qigong practitioners. It aims to promote the circulation of Qi (Life force) throughout the body and use this Qi for healing purposes. Inner Alchemy practice is much more challenging than physical practice and can be much more intensive.
