In our age of digital distraction, do you sometimes feel overloaded with information that leaves you with data but no real substance?
Decisions can feel heavy. Energy comes and goes. And despite years of inner work, you may sense there’s more depth and meaning just beyond your current awareness...
The wisdom you understand doesn’t always translate into results in your daily life, because it lives in your head and not your body.
Imagine moving through your day with energy that flows, decisions that feel fully aligned, and a body that supports you rather than holds you back — knowing your purpose not as a goal, but a living current that guides your every action.
Join Qigong Master Mingtong Gu in this enlightening 7-module live course where you’ll reconnect with your body wisdom to develop a deep understanding of your path forward in life, and learn gentle standing, flowing, and awareness-based movements that can help you directly sense how energy, posture, and attention shape your inner and outer world.
You’ll learn teachings and simple somatic movements, rooted in Qigong principles and the timeless wisdom of the Four Noble Truths — a foundational Buddhist doctrine, reframed as a practical guide for modern living.
In this course, the Four Noble Truths are not studied as theory, but experienced through the body — revealing how suffering, contraction, healing, and awakening unfold as embodied processes.
As Master Mingtong shares, subtle contractions or holding patterns can shape your posture, energy, and even your decision-making...
And when your mind takes center stage, your body’s innate guidance goes quiet. Without a stable, grounded center your overall health can become compromised. That’s why you’ll also be practicing intentional movements, in tandem with breathing and meditation to help your body integrate what your thinking mind already knows — so insight becomes something you feel and experience, not just understand.
Lasting transformation doesn’t come from effort alone, but from restoring coherence between body, energy, and awareness.
Master Mingtong affirms that the key to healing lies in listening to your body’s signals of discomfort, tension, and fatigue — as guidance rather than problems to fix — pointing toward where life energy is asking to move, soften, and reorganize.
Through Qigong somatic movement, guided meditation, sound, energy, and spiritual practices, he’ll teach you how to return to wholeness by opening a portal to understanding your true nature.
Integrating these simple practices into daily life will help you join body and mind, balance your nervous system, and carry this steady rhythm into your routines. When your energy is naturally aligned — you’ll stop chasing goals in your mind in favor of aligned action.
As you move through days with greater ease, you may find you’re sleeping more soundly, responding instead of reacting, and feeling grounded even in the busiest moments. Old patterns of tension, indecision, or fatigue tend to naturally dissolve, freeing up space for creative ideas, inspired action, and more meaningful relationships.
Far more than a course, this is an initiation into embodied awakening. You’ll learn why leadership, contribution, and creativity arise naturally from alignment rather than struggle.

The practices in this course are designed to be lived and integrated into your daily life. You’ll leave with a coherent field of presence that informs every decision, increases creativity, and strengthens your ability to navigate life with inner clarity — strengthening the invisible threads that connect us all.
In this 7-module, 8-week transformational course, Master Mingtong will guide you through the skills and competencies you’ll need to successfully practice somatic grounding to reorganize emotional tension, restore inner coherence, and open to your intuitive guidance and natural body wisdom.
You’ll connect with Master Mingtong and experience his teachings through livestreaming video via any connected device. This connection is easy to use and will enhance the impact of Master Mingtong’s transmissions. Can’t make it live? After each class, you can stream the video and audio recordings to enjoy anytime and anywhere at your convenience.
This course will feature LIVE teachings, interactive sessions, experiential practices, and Q&A with Master Mingtong. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to return to wholeness by opening a portal to understanding your true nature.

Master Mingtong opens with an exploration of suffering, and how often it begins as a quiet absence from your own body — the subtle disconnection that forms when you live in constant thinking, planning, or managing. You’ll discover how this separation scatters your energy, hinders intuition, and creates a kind of tension that your mind alone cannot resolve.
You’ll learn how to inhabit your body as the true home of your awakening. As you reconnect through somatic meditation and gentle movement, you’ll feel how awareness brings your life energy back into coherence. Discomfort becomes meaningful guidance, numbness begins to thaw, and your body reveals its natural intelligence.
This shift opens space for clear energy, emotional clarity, and a renewed sense of inner safety.
In this module, you’ll:

Suffering and disease often arise not from what’s wrong with you, but from the chronic contraction your body adopts to survive overwhelming experiences. Modern life encourages you to override discomfort, tighten against emotional pain, and push through stress — creating an internal armor that feels permanent, yet is simply unprocessed energy waiting to be met.
From an embodied perspective, contraction is an intelligent response — it’s your system protecting itself when it doesn’t feel safe. As you learn to sense these patterns directly, rather than suppress or control them, you’ll begin to unlock the energy trapped inside them.
You’ll experience how resistance creates suffering, and how compassionate presence restores movement, vital energy, and inner freedom.
Master Mingtong will introduce simple movement practices to incorporate into daily life — so your body releases old holding patterns, allowing flow, openness, and reorganizing intelligence to become your new baseline.
In this module, you’ll:

Healing becomes elusive when you look for it outside yourself — relying on experts, methods, or solutions while missing the living medicine already inside your body.
From a Qigong perspective, energy is the bridge between your physical form and awakened consciousness. When you reconnect with this field, balance and coherence arise naturally. Master Mingtong will share how this experience reveals wholeness as something already present within you.
Through Master Mingtong’s guided movement and visualization practices, you’ll learn how to sense energy as warmth, flow, vibration, and vitality. As you begin to feel this living intelligence, your relationship to healing shifts from effort to trust, from seeking to remembering. Each practice strengthens your connection to the infinite life force that nourishes your body, stabilizes your emotions, and opens you to deeper presence.
Over time, this energetic awareness becomes something you carry into daily life — a source of resilience, clarity, and renewal that never runs dry.
In this module, you’ll:

Discover how sound becomes one of the most direct pathways back to inner harmony. Emotional imbalance, tension, and physical discomfort often appear unrelated, yet they arise from the same energetic disruptions within your body. When life energy becomes stagnant or fragmented, your system loses its natural coherence, affecting your mood, clarity, and sense of inner safety. Sound works at the level where these patterns form — reorganizing energy through vibration, resonance, and frequency.
Through Master Mingtong’s guided sound-healing practices, you’ll learn how to use your own voice and intention to release stagnation, soften internal resistance, and reharmonize your organs, tissues, and emotional field. As sound moves through you, scattered parts begin to rejoin, allowing alignment, vitality, and spaciousness to return.
This practice doesn’t require force — it activates the body’s inherent intelligence and restores balance from within. Over time, sound becomes a simple, powerful tool you can return to anytime you need grounding, recalibration, or emotional clarity.
In this module, you’ll:

Finding your purpose becomes confusing only when it’s held in the mind — where it turns into pressure, comparison, or the sense that you must figure out the “right” direction. From an embodied Qigong perspective, true purpose is not something you seek or achieve. It arises naturally when your vision, breath, and energy move as one coherent field. When intention is grounded in your body, direction feels clear, supportive, and rooted in truth rather than effort.
Master Mingtong will lead you through an energetic visioning meditation that integrates breath, awareness, and your internal landscape. As your body becomes the anchor for intention, purpose shifts from a mental storyline into a lived, felt reality. Confusion softens, clarity expands, and your next steps emerge from coherence rather than striving. Over time, this practice becomes a reliable compass — helping purpose express itself spontaneously in daily life, in relationships, and in the choices that shape your path.
In this module, you’ll:

Explore how your natural desire to help, guide, or uplift others becomes distorted when healing and leadership are treated as separate roles. This split often leads to over-giving, burnout, and the pressure to perform — patterns that drain vitality and disconnect you from your essence.
From an energetic perspective, leadership becomes sustainable only when it arises from the same place healing does — embodied presence.
Through an essence mantra practice, you’ll learn how to unify the healer and leader within you so your contribution comes from wholeness rather than effort.
As mantra activates resonance in your body, you’ll feel your presence strengthen without strain, allowing clarity, compassion, and direction to arise naturally. This shift makes service regenerative instead of depleting, and leadership becomes an expression of your innate coherence rather than a role you must uphold.
Over time, this inner alignment becomes a grounded way of moving through your relationships, your work, and your calling.
In this module, you’ll:

In this final week, Master Mingtong will guide you to focus on sustaining the transformation you’ve experienced throughout the course. Often, powerful experiences fade once daily life resumes, leaving a sense that what you touched is temporary. From an energetic perspective, without integration, practices remain isolated, and awareness drifts back into habit.
By combining movement, sound, and meditation into a single, embodied practice, you’ll learn how to return to your body, power, and purpose naturally and consistently.
Through this integrated approach, you’ll weave the key elements of the course into a daily rhythm that supports presence, clarity, and energetic coherence.
Movement awakens your vitality, sound reorganizes and harmonizes energy, and meditation deepens awareness. As these practices come together, your embodiment becomes seamless, allowing power, purpose, and inner alignment to emerge as lived qualities rather than concepts.
The intention here is to empower you to carry your awakening forward with confidence, grace, and resilience.

In this powerful video teaching, Master Mingtong Gu reveals the “wisdom of the body” — the innate intelligence within your cells that holds your regeneration and healing capacity. Though often buried by disconnection, this wisdom can be awakened through practice. When accessed, you feel energy opening and flowing — joy, aliveness, and deep connection return. Wisdom Healing Qigong cultivates the sacred mind-body unity where transformation becomes possible. When mind and body work together, everything upgrades.

This playbook is a practical guide to help seekers, healers, and leaders engage artificial intelligence without losing their humanity. It outlines a 10-process training arc for conscious AI practice. It ensures your lived experience and embodied knowing remain the ultimate authority for healing, clarity, and contribution.

Master Mingtong Gu shares the Medicine Buddha’s profound insight to reduce suffering — teaching that true healing begins at the root cause of ignorance, where attachment, aversion, and contraction create the conditions that manifest as physical, emotional, and collective disease. Through energy work, intention, and practice, you can shift from fear to love, disconnection to connection, and resistance to compassion. This teaching reveals how working with energy awakens wisdom, loving kindness, and healing capacity that naturally transmits to future generations.
