Bruce Frantzis – Energy Arts Training Circle 2022
A Monthly Online Training Program to Transform your Mind, Body & Spirit
with Taoist Master, Bruce Frantzis
Here’s What You’ll Receive Every Month
#1 Monthly Beginner & Intermediate, to Advanced Audio MP3s
Every month YOU are going to receive high quality audio MP3 lessons and guided practices for Gods Playing in the Clouds Qigong (foundational and intermediate / advanced).
I’ll be showing you how these practices integrate physical movements, meditation, spirituality, health and vitality – and give you tips on how to practice.
I specifically designed this edition of the Training Circle as a deep dive into the oldest and most powerful rejuvenation methods in Taoism.
#2 Monthly Beginner & Intermediate, to Advanced Guided Practice Sessions in HD Video
You’ll receive a monthly Gods Playing in the Clouds training that is the most comprehensive I have ever offered on this subject. I will show you how Gods Playing in the Clouds relates to all other Energy Arts practices.
Personally I have never seen the material explained in public to this degree and depth.
Here’s some of what you can expect:
- Learn the 6 CORE power movements of Gods Playing in the Clouds
- Discover how the external physical movements include all the internal techniques of qigong.
- Practice and embody internal alignments, breathing and specialized qigong stretching (lengthening)
- Open and stabilize your heart center and your body’s central energy channel
- Make your bones stronger and boost spleen and pancreas function
- Strengthens and unleashes hidden energies within your spine and heals back problems
- Cleanse your emotional body of negative energy
#3 Monthly Taoist Meditation Training with Guided Practice Sessions & Deep Awareness Practices
Every month you will receive what I believe to be one of the most comprehensive programs in the art of Taoist meditation ever created…
To connect to the spirit or soul, and what the Taoists call “being.” The resolution of this primal need is found in the Taoist meditation practices in which you learn to dissolve and resolve the inner spiritual, emotional and psychic conflicts that prevent your mind and spirit from becoming still. From that place of stillness you come to experience great inner peace.
Here are some of the topics we will cover:
- How to infuse Taoist Water Method meditation into Gods Playing in the Clouds
- Using shengong to access specific thoughts, emotions, and energies
- Consciously rebalance stuck energies and create space for possibilities
- Release spiritual blockages
- Transcend the mind’s ability to make you suffer
- Breathing techniques to help restructure your relationship with the Universe
#4 Access to our our Private Community & Forum
Our Private Page will connect you with our worldwide Training Circle community to discuss the month’s course material, share experiences, as well as give and receive support. This is where you can post questions for guidance.
#5 Q&A Sessions with Bruce Frantzis
We will also do Q&A sessions about the material from time to time.
You’ll be able to post your questions directly into the member forum which will be monitored by Energy Arts on a consistent basis, so your questions will be answered.
