Excessive worrying and obsessive thinking can waste as much as 80 percent of our body’s energy reserves, but learning to quiet the ceaseless chatter of the "monkey mind" and recharging our brain with chi energy can radically increase our mental capacity, focus, and clarity.

Tonight, with renowned Taoist teacher and author Mantak Chia, we will be introduced to Wisdom Chi Kung, a Taoist meditation practice designed to help us maintain and boost our mental acuity. It involves emptying the mind into our center of gravity (tan tien) and internal organs and transmuting this excessive mental energy into refined chi we can then use to revitalize our brain, synchronize its left and right hemispheres, and fill our whole body with enhanced life force.
