I took the 2 week Tao Garden Fusion 1, 2, & 3 Courses led by Master Chia after my visits in Qatar Part 1 and Hua Hin Part 2. The retreat is in Chiang Mai teaching QiGong Taoist strategies to recycle extreme negative feelings (like overwhelming anger and anxiety) with more balanced emotions (such as love and courage). I also received two abdominal massages and a structural massage, steam baths, and went swimming.
Following the structural massage most of my aches and pains vanished. My life long anxiety and anger was reduced in intensity by two-thirds and I’m continuing to do the QiGong practices in response to my negative emotions. I will be presenting a research poster about my use of QiGong with youth who have complex behavioral challenges at the 2026 WFOT Congress in Bangkok next week, and will begin offering Breath-Body-Mind for Special Needs Teacher Training. #TaoGarden #UniversalHealingTao #InnerAlchemy #WFOT2026
