"June Day of Inner Stillness" – Return to Your True Nature｜Experience Millennia of Daoist Wisdom and Begin Your Journey to Inner Peace

***

Introduction: Seeking Inner Clarity Amid Chaos
The rumble of subways, the bombardment of information, the entanglement of daily tasks...
Modern life stretches our minds and bodies like a taut string, endlessly cycling between anxiety and exhaustion.
Daoism teaches: “If one can remain clear and calm, all things will return to their true place.”
This May, we invite you to step away from the noise and enter the space of a "One-Day Daoist Stillness Retreat."
No need to retreat into the mountains or commit to long ascetic practices.
In just one day, guided by the ancient wisdom of internal alchemy, awaken the power of inner peace. Fellow seekers are welcome to join.

Why Choose a Daoist Stillness Practice?
Unlike ordinary meditation, Daoist wellness emphasizes the dual cultivation of body and spirit:
🔹 Nourishing the spirit with breath:
Using guided breathing to harmonize internal “qi,” dissolve emotional stagnation, and release stress.
🔹 Using stillness to overcome movement:
Observing thoughts without interference, learning to coexist with emotions, and reclaiming present-moment awareness.
🔹 Unity of Heaven and Human:
Aligning with seasonal rhythms (rising yang energy in May) to unblock meridians and rejuvenate the body-mind system.
