Focusing On One Point

In this hybrid Taoist–Buddhist meditation, you will learn to steady the breath and rest the mind on one point. This gentle practice cultivates calm, centred awareness and releases tension. As concentration deepens, a small ball of qi may gather at the tip of the nose and be lightly guided along parts of the Microcosmic Orbit to support balance and inner vitality. Not suitable during pregnancy. Those with relevant medical or psychological conditions — including trauma, psychiatric history, or past drug use — should seek professional support. Any descriptions of posture, breath, energy or sensation reflect traditional Taoist practice, vary according to personal experience, and are not intended as a medical or health claim. Educational and spiritual only; not medical advice or therapy. References to ‘elixir’ are metaphorical in Taoist alchemy and refer solely to inner refinement and cultivation. Not available to residents of the USA or Canada.
