This complete learning package has been designed to support your Tao Magic training and personal practice both during and after the retreat. Inside you will find carefully selected study materials, practice tools, and guided teachings from Grandmaster Mantak Chia.
Each element – from books to practice charts, posters, and self-paced recordings – helps you understand the principles of Fusion of the Five Elements, refine your energetic sensitivity, and learn how to transform emotional energy into inner strength and balance.
PRACTICE TOOLS
Bamboo Hitter
In its traditional form, the Bamboo Hitter uses a bundle of bamboo rods to strike specific lines along the body and limbs.
The rhythmic tapping creates vibrations that stimulate the bones and fascia, helping energy penetrate deeper into the body. This practice supports circulation, releases tension from muscles and connective tissue, and activates the energetic pathways used in Taoist internal cultivation.
Buffalo Horn Gua Sha
A traditional Taoist healing tool used to work deeply along the body’s muscle and tendon lines.
Buffalo Horn Gua Sha helps release tension in the fascia, stimulate circulation, and free tendons that become trapped between bones and connective tissue. It is commonly used to relieve joint discomfort and restore balance in the shoulders, arms, and legs.
PRACTICE ITEMS
Tao Meditation T-Shirts
A set of colorful meditation T-shirts used during Taoist energy practices.
In these meditations, different colors help practitioners focus attention on specific energy centers of the body. The color acts as a simple visual support for directing awareness and strengthening the process of gathering and charging energy in the centers.
This method helps develop stronger concentration, activate internal energy flow, and support the practice of building and storing life-force in the body.
