Chi gung Tui na (energy healing bodywork) is a special branch of Chinese medicine that is designed to unblock, free and balance chi in others. You learn to project energy from youir hands, voice and eyes to facilitate healing.

In order to learn to heal others, you must first learn to unlock and free your own chi and learn to control the specific pathways through which it flows.

Bruce’s training in Chi Gung tui na

Part of my Taoist training was learning to apply Chi gung tui na techniques to patients in medical clinics in China. During a five-year period, I worked with more than 10,000 patients to balance their chi and help them heal from such diverse illnesses as organ and nerve damage and cancer.

Today, I no longer work as a chi gung doctor, either privately or in clinics, in order to have the time to write books, give workshops and retreats and train Energy Arts instructors.

Balancing Chi in Others

In order to learn to heal others with chi gung tui na, you must first learn to unlock and free your own chi and learn to control the specific pathways through which it flows. You must learn to develop chi sensitivity in your hands. That is why it is so important to learn Energy Arts core and advanced programs before you study chi gung tui na.

Self-regeneration

A vital part of chi gung tui na training involves learning the regenerative chi practices that keep you from becoming physically, spiritually or emotionally exhausted when healing the chi in your patients. This includes

• How to protect yourself from absorbing the energy of the patients you are working with
• How to regenerate your own energy after you put it out on behalf of your patients
• How to prevent burnout
• How to retain compassion for your patients and not get ‘compassion’ fatigued

The rule of thumb is that if you spend a certain number of hours working on patients, ideally you should spend as much as a quarter of that amount of time doing regenerative practices to avoid burnout.
