Qigong Study & Practice in China
With Roger Jahnke, OMD
In his ten Qi cultivation trips to China, Dr. Roger Jahnke has led over 200 individual travelers to temples, hospitals, sacred mountains, out of the way markets for scrolls, calligraphy supplies, tea, and silk. There is nothing that can compare -- for the student of Qi and Qi cultivation -- to practicing Qigong and Tai Chi in these ancient sites.

The Essence of This Incredible JourneyThere is a marvel buried in the practices we teach. While it is correct that we are activating healing mechanisms in the body and mind, there is more! The ancient sages suggest that we are a actually revealing a natural presence - inherent wellbeing - opening a portal to the eternal aspect of self, kind of personal Alchemy to create The Golden Elixir of Longevity and Immortality. Do we really learn Qigong and Tai Chi to exercise? Of course, we and our students, do want to feel more well and we know that the human system makes the most profound medicine ever known -- within. What an amazing mystery!

You can not buy this medicine, you can only produce it for FREE!
As amazing as this is — the deeper purpose of Qigong and Tai Chi is to reveal, cultivate and sustain an association with deep peace by gaining greater understanding of the truth of our nature.
This journey is not just a visit to an interesting international destination. It is also a journey into your deep self, beyond the boundary of the usual. Further refining the cultivation of our Qi and character, to venture purposefully into the neglected territory of the eternal - immortal - self.
A journey like this can not be found in the public domain. We have been to China ten times previously. Every time we refine and go deeper. With Dana Xu, an amazing guide that I have known now for 25 years, who herself is a seeker, we have found places and people — wizards -- that can not be found by any mainstream travel organization.
GO TO CHINA TO DEEPEN and TRANSMUTE!
Our trip will certainly be a fantastic tour of locations rarely explored by tourists in China. However the intent is that it also be a magical mystery tour in China that leads deep into the mystery of being. And, do allow it to be a time of personal retreat and reflection. It will definitely be an opportunity to deepen your practice and use the learning of new forms to enrich understanding of your practice and teaching. OR -- it can be all of these, they overlap.
The key point is — you can use this journey however you wish. In the Integral Way – each person unfolds in their own way at their own pace and expectations are minimal. You are invited to, with clear communication with the guides and assistants – participate in all or some of the planned activities, sleep in, rest, explore on your own, study, write, dream. Perhaps, some wandering on your own is the elixir. We will even be learning, should you wish to explore sleep and dream in the ways of the ancient wizards of dream and restoration Qigong.
Where and what is the ultimate elixir anyway? It can not be purchased, it can only be cultivated. This is an integral journey – the planning is all to support you in integrating deeply.
Going deeper, into the mystery of what we understand as "cultivation", there is a gateway of wonder — a portal to the amazing realm of our own immortality, eternal nature, invincible essence. How do we access this, given our students and even ourselves are caught in the web of the apparent world? It can only occur through a radical deepening. Such a deepening can occur eventually without going anywhere. AND YET, such a deepening can be leveraged and accelerated by sojourning into unfamiliar atmospheres and locations that are infused with the energetics and the secrets of the nature of nature and the nature of self!
