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 the 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.
