Episode Overview

Mantak Chia is a Taoist meditation master, author, and entrepreneur.

In this episode, Master Chia breaks down the ancient tradition of mind training called Taoism and its methods, like meditation and dark room retreats.

Master Chia explains how to stop wasting mental and sexual energy and start cultivating more of it for a happier and healthier life.

Although Master Chia has also studied Western anatomy and medicine, Taoism was developed over millennia primarily through very close introspection. The methods might have different ways of using metaphor and descriptions of the first-hand experience to describe what happens in the body, but there's no doubt they work.

Hope you enjoy!
