This course is an independent study format. Once you sign up you will be sent a syllabus with all the necessary information to complete the course. In this course you will read a key book on practices held very close by lineages and teachers. After thousands of years of oral transmission to a very select few, the opportunity to share ancient secrets has been realized.

The course is straightforward and readily applicable in your personal and professional life. At first you might think the book to be a bit dry. Give it a chance and try out the content.  It is rich in substance, historical and comparative in nature, the chapters of modest length and they flow smoothly. Allow yourself to open to the salient practices of ancient teachers and the contemporary presentation by the author and practitioner of whom you are reading.

Real learning is experiential.  Just sign up and follow the syllabus. While the class stands alone, it complements other courses taken and reinforces key principles in Taoism, TCM and Qigong. Remember, you progress at your own pace within the timeframe allotted for Program Completion. In the event you have questions, you always have access to me.

This is a required course for Qigong Certification and for Taoist Studies. Please refer to Qigong Certification and Taoist Studies to gauge your progress if you are unsure.
