Taoist Yoga
Taoist Yoga uses gentle movement, stretches, breath work, visualization, and meditation to balance, strengthen, and heal the body.
Taoist Yoga derives its roots from the ancient Dao Yin Practice as developed from the ancient Taoists in the Sacred Mountains in China.
Taoist Yoga practice has at its heart the cultivation of Original Life Force Energy or Chi as termed by Taoists.
Taoist Yoga has three primary goals:
1. To increase the Original Life Force energy moving into and circulating within our bodies.
2. To become aware of the subtleties of our body, breath and mind and understand their relationship to one another, as well as how to use this relationship to create a sense of wholeness and peace in our everyday life.
3. To increase our physical flexibility and strength through full ranges of motion, as well as gain smoothness and depth in breathing. This helps to enhance every aspect of our physical, mental and spiritual well being.
