Nathan Brine: teaching Taoist internal alchemy

I teach Taoist internal alchemy from Wang Liping's Dragon Gate Lineage.

Practising since 1997. Authorized to teach in 2015. Author of The Taoist Alchemy of Wang Liping.

Internal alchemy (neidan) works with the body's energy and mind, seated and still. I learned it from Wang Liping, the current transmitter of a Dragon Gate Lineage, a line of Taoist teaching passed from master to student for eight hundred years. I have practised since 1997 and teach it the way I was taught: step by step, in plain language, so it becomes part of your life.

What students say

"The clarity of transmission, the amount of information and finally the effectiveness of what Nathan teaches cannot be compared with anything I have come along in the almost 40 years of my Quest for Taoist & Spiritual teachings."

Karolos Gikas

"I have attended numerous retreats with Master Wang LiPing and find Nathan's courses and seminars to be authentic and effective."

Manish B.

"Wang Liping's system of Daoist Alchemy is easily one of the most comprehensive and powerful systems of its type that is openly available to English speakers. However, it was only after Nathan started teaching that the material was structured and explained in a way that was accessible and easy to understand."
