Mind and body in Daoism form part of the same continuum of vital energy (qi), yet are expressed in different dimensions—spirit, heart-mind, emotions, inner nature, and destiny.
This workshop examines these on three levels:
- the traditional Daoist understanding,
- matching concepts in modern science,
- and ways of modification in terms of personal energy management.
In the second half, we then apply our new appreciation of the Daoist mind-body system to the dynamics of day-to-day living.
Understanding first the powerful flow of yin and yang in various dimensions, we will look at our rela-tionship to material goods, living spaces, artistic and intellectual endeavors, as well as different aspects of time, aiming to achieve an overall sense of right-ness in our lives.
