Tao Meditation

The practice of Guided Taoist Meditation emphasizes the ability to focus, mindfulness, contemplative self-inquiry and developing clarity, transcendence, and the expansion of inner and outer awareness, and sense of overall connectedness.  It utilizes breathing techniques to promote free energy flow, healing mantras and sound resonance (Tibetan singing bowls), imagery, and visualization, all resulting in deep relaxation, tranquility, inner balance and harmony.  It also provides tools for pain relief and insomnia, and promotes release of muscle tension, anxiety, and stress, including PTSD.

Tao meditation refers to The Dao (The Way) as the natural order of things.  “Things are what they are”.  From Wu Chi (stillness) to T’ai Chi (motion) back to Wu Chi is the natural cycle of life. The  Yin Yang represents the constant motion of change and impermanency .   Silence is the best teacher, always there to show The Way. Stop trying, simply DO.  Take the path of the least possible resistance and actions will become effortless.  Accept what is in front of you without wanting the situation to be other than it is.  Contemplate the natural order of things and work with it rather than against it, for trying to change “what is“ only sets up resistance.  Come to meditation with an open heart each time like a newborn child.  This is the first step toward the light (enlightenment).  This is The Way.
