The Inner Smile Meditation - Video Tutorial with Mantak Chia

1 day Workshop by Mantak Chia

The Inner Smile is one of the most important foundational techniques of the Universal Healing Tao® system — a form of silent Qigong in which practitioners direct a warm, sincere smile inward to each major organ. By combining focused intention with the healing colors of the five elements, the practice transforms disharmonious emotions into constructive, loving energy. It serves as a powerful remedy for stress, tension, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, high blood pressure, digestive problems, and pain. Students learn a systematic organ-by-organ sequence that strengthens the connections between organs, colors, and the energies of positive virtues, making it an ideal daily practice for maintaining health and emotional balance.

Six Healing Sounds

Six Healing Sounds

1 day Workshop by Mantak Chia

The Six Healing Sounds are an ancient Taoist Qigong practice and one of the foundational techniques of the Universal Healing Tao® system. Each of the five main yin organs — heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, and spleen — is associated with a specific healing sound, color, and energy quality. Through controlled breathing, subvocal vibrations, and targeted movement sequences, excess heat trapped in the organ fascia is released and distributed throughout the body. Disharmonious emotions are transformed into harmonious Chi, restoring balance to the organs and the entire energetic system. Grandmaster Mantak Chia has been instrumental in bringing this powerful self-healing practice to the West.

Microcosmic Orbit  Silent Qigong

by Mantak Chia

Microcosmic Orbit Silent Qigong

1 day Workshop by Mantak Chia

The Microcosmic Orbit is the foundational practice of the Universal Healing Tao® system. In this meditation, practitioners learn to circulate Chi through the two principal meridians — the Governor Vessel rising along the spine and the Conception Vessel descending along the front of the body — forming one continuous energy circuit the Chinese masters called the Small Heavenly Cycle. The practice relies not on force or willpower but on relaxation, calm attention, and the guiding power of the mind's eye. When the orbit is open, Chi flows steadily through the body, nourishing organs, balancing Yin and Yang, and laying the essential groundwork for all higher-level inner alchemy practices.

Inner Alchemy Basic - Awaken Your Healing Light

2 days Workshop by Mantak Chia

This introductory video presents the first Healing Art of the Universal Healing Tao® System as taught by Grandmaster Mantak Chia, covering the foundational methods of Taoist Inner Alchemy. At its center is the conscious awareness, cultivation, transformation, and circulation of the body's own life-force energy, Chi. Filmed as part of the beginner workshop Awaken Your Healing Light, it introduces three interconnected meditations — the Inner Smile, the Six Healing Sounds, and the Microcosmic Orbit — that build the energetic foundation for the System's more advanced practices. Together they deepen body awareness, balance the internal organs, transform emotional tension, and establish the free flow of Chi throughout the body. At the same time, the Five Elements System and its phases of transformation are introduced and explained as an essential part of Classical Chinese Medicine.

Chi Training

1 day Workshop by Mantak Chia

Chi Training
Chi Training in the Universal Healing Tao® System of Grandmaster Mantak Chia develops the ability to perceive, circulate, balance, and direct life-force energy within the body. Beginning with awareness, students use breathing, focused attention, gentle movement, and internal sensing to recognize Chi as warmth, tingling, pressure, or vibration. From there, students build the Lower Tan Tien as an energetic reservoir, circulate Chi through the Microcosmic Orbit, and activate the hands. Grounding and energetic stability remain essential throughout, and Cosmic Healing Qigong then opens connection with Heaven, Earth, and the surrounding universe. The aim is awareness, balance, and conscious energy management, not simply more energy.

Tao Yin Breath of the Dragon

2 days Workshop by Mantak Chia

Tao Yin Qigong is a meditative movement practice within Healing Art 1 – Tao Energy Cultivation Basics of the Universal Healing Tao® System developed by Grandmaster Mantak Chia, sometimes described as a form of Taoist yoga. Practiced mainly in sitting and lying positions, its 45 exercises combine breathing, mindful stretching, relaxation, spinal alignment, and awareness of the Lower Tan Tien to let Chi circulate with less obstruction. Rather than building external strength, Tao Yin directs attention inward, turning physical stretching into a form of internal meditation. The course develops mobility, elasticity, and structural awareness while bridging the meditative foundations of the Tao with the more physically oriented Internal Martial Arts.

Chi Nei Tsang®© 1 - Organ Detox

4 days Workshop by Mantak Chia

This course teaches the fundamentals of Taoist organ massage, as developed by Mantak Chia. Long ago, the Taoists discovered the importance of undisturbed organ function. Over time, this function can be disrupted by emotional stress, an unhealthy diet, and a lack of exercise. These factors can cause the fascial sheaths surrounding the organs to contract and become adhered. As a result of this reduced permeability, the organs are increasingly deprived of sufficient oxygen and nutrients. The individual components of the course are as follows:

Chi Nei Tsang® II - Chasing the Winds

4 days Workshop by Mantak Chia

This four-day workshop with Grandmaster Mantak Chia transfers  Chi Nei Tsang® II – ‘Chasing the Winds’, the second level of the Universal Healing Tao® abdominal massage system. Building on the fundamental detoxification work of Chi Nei Tsang® I, this course focuses on resolving twelve symptoms of illness by addressing their main cause – the twelve winds. To achieve this, the winds that have caused stagnations and symptoms of illness are identified, treated and diverted. These winds are expelled by balancing the pulses and activating specific combinations of meridian points. Participants learn to assess the pulse pattern, locate stagnant winds using specific meridian points, and apply pumping techniques with the elbows and thumbs to work on and eliminate these energies. The result is improved blood and Qi flow, increased organ vitality, and potential relief from pain, tension and sleep disorder.

Cosmic Vision The Art of Improving Vision

2 days Workshop by Mantak Chia

Cosmic Vision by Grandmaster Mantak Chia presents a Taoist system of practices for caring for and strengthening the eyes. Its starting point is that the eyes are not an isolated organ but are closely tied to the whole body, especially the liver and kidneys. Special eye exercises are combined with inner Qigong, the Healing Sounds, Tao Yin self-massage, and the activation of meridians and acupressure points. Beyond physical sight, the practice cultivates awareness of Chi, relaxation of body and mind, and deeper inner perception, placing eye training within a broader Taoist path of harmonizing body, energy, and consciousness.

Rather than turning outward, awareness is gathered inward, refined, and returned to the Lower Tan Tien. This concentrated inner essence is symbolized by the Golden Elixir, the Golden Nectar, and the Pearl of the Dragon, giving the practice its name.

Fusion of the 5 Elements Emotional Transformation (Formula 1-2-3)

5 days Workshop by Mantak Chia

Fusion of the Five Elements introduces the first advanced stage of Taoist Inner Alchemy within the 5th Healing Art of the Universal Healing Tao® System. The practice connects the Five Elements — Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, and Wood — with the five main organs, the senses, and their corresponding emotions, gathering and transforming negative feelings into usable Life-Force Energy. Through the Four Pakuas, these energies are fused in the Lower Tan Tien into the Pearl, a concentrated form of Chi that grows through Fusion I, II, and III into the foundation of the Energy Body and prepares the practitioner for the Kan and Li formulas that follow.

Lesser Enlightment of Kan & Li (Formula 4)

4 days Workshop by Mantak Chia

Lesser Enlightenment of Kan and Li introduces the first of three advanced Kan and Li formulas within the Universal Healing Tao® System of Taoist Inner Alchemy. At its center is the conscious union of Water and Fire — the cooling yin energy of the kidneys and sexual essence meeting the warming yang energy of the heart and its Compassion Fire. By reversing these forces and coupling them in the cauldron of the Lower Tan Tien, practitioners set the alchemical Steaming Process in motion, refining Jing, Chi, and Shen toward the formation of the Soul or Energy Body and the Immortal Fetus.

4 days Workshop by Mantak Chia

This course presents "Greater Enlightenment of Kan and Li", an advanced stage of Taoist Inner Alchemy Immortality, the Healing Art Five taught by Mantak Chia and Andrew Jan that builds on the foundation of Lesser Kan and Li.

Drawing on Taoist history, organ energetics, and cosmic forces from Earth, Sun, Moon, and stars, the course guides practitioners toward a progressive reunion of Yin and Yang, body and spirit, human and cosmos.

Across roughly 270 pages, the authors combine historical and philosophical background with concrete formulas connecting Water and Fire, the Nine Spirits, the pole stars, and the Big Dipper, alongside guidance on diet, fasting, and long-term practice. The overarching aim is the birth of the Immortal Spirit Body and the resolving of Heaven and Earth, past and future, and observer and observed.

Sealing of the 5 Senses (Formula 7)

by Mantak Chia

Sealing of the 5 Senses (Formula 7)

4-days Workshop by Mantak Chia

This four-day course with Grandmaster Mantak Chia presents the advanced Taoist formula seven known as Sealing of the Five Senses — a practice that transforms warm-current Qi into spiritual energy, the energy of the soul. The senses function as open gateways through which vital force constantly leaks into the external world. Left unsealed, the eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and skin bleed energy with every act of unfocused perception. Participants learn a three-stage process: first strengthening the senses, then establishing the internal connections, and finally sealing each sensory gate with both external and internal force. The result is a profound accumulation of energy that would otherwise be lost to the restless activity the Taoists call the monkey mind.
