As a spiritual seeker, you’ve likely encountered terms like self-healing and self-responsibility — what do they really mean, though, and how do they impact your life?

During this first class with Master Mingtong Gu, you’ll become firmly rooted in these foundational concepts, which will empower you in the weeks to come…

In this module, you’ll discover:

• How to use the tools of meditation, guided practices, and experiential processes, as well as the power of mind-body connections and mind-heart connections, to guide you through this training — and your larger spiritual journey
• Why transformation and awakening are the foundations for your life — and the two legs you need to move forward in your spiritual development
• More key terms and language you’ll be using to frame your experiences in this transformational course — and far beyond
• How to achieve your own divine moments of joy
• A powerful closing meditation focused on connecting with your energy body — your home base used to cultivate the qualities that inspire you most: love, joy, wisdom, connection, contribution, and more

This week you’ll delve deep into the three Qigong energy bodies — what are they, and how can you connect with them.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• The true meaning of your soul — also known as your personal energy body or inner heart essence
• How the collective energy body taps into your energy presence and sense of community
• The subtle power of source energy — the impersonal oversoul or collective spirit body — and its connection to earth’s presence
• A powerful visualization practice to bring the 3 energy bodies into focus
• A 5-minute guided integration meditation to activate these energy bodies

Intentional movement awakens a powerful energy and unmatched vitality.

This week, you’ll explore exactly how your energy comes alive through both physical and spiritua l channels…

In this module, you’ll discover:

• The powerful health benefits of awakening your energy — including releasing tension, addressing your pain, and treating chronic conditions, neurological issues, physical conditions, stress relief, and more
• The physical foundations of this energy awakening — it all begins with your musculature and skeleton
• How to use sound to awaken your deepest energy
• How awakened energy is similar to Kundalini yoga energy
• Movements to open energy flow in the 3 key areas of your body — shoulders, hips, and spine
• A new sound/movement practice to activate your energy — you can do this anywhere, whether sitting or standing

Jing is the powerful energy that forms the essence of who you are. It ultimately shapes your sense of vitality, and can even determine your life span.

This week, you’ll explore the relationship between jing, the brain, your energy, and pure consciousness.

In this module you’ll:

• Discover why — and how — sound has long been used to nourish the brain and awaken the mind’s greatest capacities
• Explore the benefits of activating your jing: improved brain and nervous system function, greater creativity, and an opening to deeper consciousness
• Learn the extra health-boosting benefits for women that come with awakening jing energy, including healthier reproductive and hormonal systems
• Take part in a guided practice to activate your jing, so you can start experiencing its powerful benefits

In this special extended class session, Master Mingtong Gu will guide you through a powerful exploration of what emotional healing really means — and what transformation will look like in YOUR life.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• How transformation works on 3 levels: physical, mental, and emotional
• The importance of true emotional healing (it might not be what you think)
• A sound practice for transforming fear into courage, confidence, and empowerment — laying the foundation for pure consciousness
• How sound affects not only your physical wellbeing, but your emotional and mental energy too
• A closing integration that works with your emotional energy patterns to uncover transformation

At this point in your journey, you’ve laid a firm foundation, and it’s time to ask: What IS pure consciousness?

As you’ll discover, pure consciousness is the name we give to deep states of consciousness that reach beyond definition, beyond conceptualization… even beyond thought.

This week, you’ll explore how awakening to pure consciousness will change your life…

In this module, you’ll discover:

• The power of activating Shen Ji Palace (the home of the mind) as a gateway to pure consciousness
• How cultivating your natural capacity for experiencing pure consciousness can deepen all the benefits associated with it: autonomy, purpose — and limitless energy
• The reason it’s not possible to fully understand or to accurately describe pure consciousness using only words — instead, it’s the direct experience of the essence of who you are
• How you become self-aware in a state of pure consciousness — while at the same time moving past your own awareness
• How to see things as they truly are, without placing any concept or judgement between yourself and the essence of existence

This final session will be completely customized for you.

Master Mingtong Gu will feel into what you and the other participants need most to bring pure consciousness into your lives. He’ll answer questions, share practices that will most benefit you and your classmates, and much more…

In this closing module, you’ll discover:

• Mingtong’s repeating meditation, a new meditation technique
• How to bring any meditative experience you might have into your healing process
• Why you don’t have to meditate for as long as you probably think to experience meditation’s many benefits
• Why many ancient teachings are more relevant than ever in our modern times
• How to access pure consciousness in your daily life, whether it’s on your commute or in your cubicle

Master Mingtong Gu will teach and guide you in the ancient practice of sound healing to fully awaken your energy center and emotional body. This advanced practice will transform your emotions and energy patterns to help you enhance the connectedness of your mind-body-spirit. You will directly experience deep transformation, moving away from the typical “fight or flight” reactions of fear, towards empowerment while awakening the joy of your whole being.

In this session, you’ll:

• Experience the unique vibration of energy in each organ, including your heart, to truly know the aliveness, happiness, and fulfillment of your whole being
• Accelerate and deepen your physical and emotional healing by releasing cellular memories of suppressed emotions associated with deep-seated old patterns, including fear and trauma
• Connect the mind with the body to reduce stress and improve awareness

How many of us are not truly living in our body, and are instead walking through life with worry in our emotions or a strong focus on the past in our thoughts? In this excerpt from a workshop teaching, Master Mingtong Gu explores the simplicity of the Qigong teachings that are focused on guiding us to come back to the body for improved health and wellbeing. There’s simplicity to Qigong, Mingtong says, acknowledging in his joyous way that this does not mean it’s easy. In this teaching, he encourages the listener step-by-step to make their best effort. When we bring love to our relationships with our family and the world — and even with our organs, especially when challenged by illness — we expand our capacity to live and connect more effectively.

Master Mingtong Gu leads a Wisdom Healing Qigong meditation to awaken the brain. When we feel stress or low energy, and our mind is unfocused and struggling to process information in our work, our health, or life’s events, Wisdom Healing Qigong can open up new capacity. When we feel pain or illness, we can benefit from opening the capacity of the brain throughout the day. Mingtong leads this meditation to awaken and connect the energy that is flowing within the mind and heart. This meditation helps us renew our creativity and sustenance for our daily work, care of our families, and living our life’s purpose. Add this meditation to your phone or computer so you can listen and watch during your workday, or while waiting at a doctor appointment.

In this bonus audio, Master Mingtong Gu shares excerpts from his teachings and a Q&A at one of his retreats, which focuses on the importance of emotional health for our body, mind, and heart. He shares his own story of discovering sound healing — when he was dealing with challenging emotions and finding his own place in the world while healing his body from asthma.

Mingtong talks about the role of the story and the role of sound healing to transform our own energetic experience around what happens. For example, he says, when a child undergoes a traumatic experience, the child is “not able to process that information and energy that’s happening so suddenly and strongly. That energy is stuck in the organ and the body… affecting the nerve system and brain as well.” He also talks about how we need to keep a dedicated Qigong practice because the old memory is very stubborn. Sound healing helps the subconscious emerge, and then a non-linear path awakens and new clarity emerges.
