Taoists reveal secrets of a blissful summer with spiritual retreats and tai chi camps across England
Workshops in Zen Meditation, Taoist practices, Tai Chi and Chi Kung are running throughout the summer at different locations, from the heart of the city to the depths of rural England.
London July 9th/10th, a Tai Chi Intensive Weekend with Matt Lewis at the London Tao Centre 19/21 Phipp Street EC2, £117, based on the Mantak Chia form and the Hidden Masters structures. Tai Chi can be practised at any age, for health, to enhance your protective energy-field, to strengthen the physical and energetic immune system, to connect with higher and lower forces on the spiritual path, for self-defence, or simply to harmonise with the environment and alleviate the effects of stress.

Devon on the edge of beautiful Dartmoor, the Healing Tao Summer Retreat from 13th to 21st August. Steps 2 and 3 on the Journey.
Step 2: Managing your love-life – this is not a couples workshop although couples are welcome, working as individuals. Learning how to circulate the generative forces from the genital organs to the higher energy centres invigorates and rejuvenates all the vital functions, improves health, and slows depletion of the genetic energy-bank, or “Ancestral Qi.” Men and women report more satisfying relationships as a result of doing the practices and feeling more energy.
13th & 14th August, £197 at Yelverton, Devon. Booking through Healing Tao UK. Step 1 is pre-requisite

Step 3: Thinking of a retreat as a real treat, this must be the closest to heaven on earth with silent meditation and sauna, tai chi and jacuzzi, chi kung (qigong) and swimming pool, fantastic food and walks on the moor.
Internal space-clearing, like feng-shui for humans, gives internal clarity and external protection. Such pre-Taoist shamanic practices include intense self-healing experiences and an immediate increase in awareness and focus.
Many people on this summer retreat have found self-discovery through silence, and how to let go embedded conditioning, harmonising with Nature in a beautiful countryside setting, feeling the healing power of Earth, and the resources to cope with the residual effects of past baggage.
The Retreat is guided with love and care, allowing space for discussion, regeneration, relaxation and multicultural celebration reflecting the diversity of the Tao, with QiGong and Tai Chi; Sweat-lodge, dancing and singing bhajans; swimming-pool, sauna, jacuzzi; walks on the moor, sunrises and sunsets; ritual and ceremony.
14th-21st August, £789, at Yelverton, Devon. Booking through Healing Tao UK. Step 2 is pre-requisite
