What do we mean by the subtle?
Should this therefore be barely perceivable?
Why bother work with the denser levels of manifestation if we are focused upon spiritual development, as surely that’s all that matters?

These and other questions, inquiry and practice will be the orientation of this weekend, alongside work to bring the Qi towards nourishing this understanding.

This retreat is not for people brand new (first year) to Nei Gong.

Any questions, please feel free to reach out: bonhays.calendar@gmail.com
