Module 1 - Bone Breathing Healing & The Polarities of Life.

In our Bone Breathing practice, the way we bring awareness and presence to our inner structure—our bones—determines the quality of transformation we experience. If we approach the practice with a mindset of “fixing” or correcting something within us, we unconsciously send the message that something is “wrong” or “broken” inside.

Deeply understanding every part of us is doing its best to adapt to life’s conditions. Our bones hold ancestral memory, deep Qi reserves, and the wisdom of our lineage, and they respond not to force but to presence and deep listening.

Rather than seeking to “correct” or impose an external structure, Bone Breathing invites us to validate and acknowledge the state of our internal landscape—whether dense, fatigued, or full of vitality. There is no “wrong” sensation; there is only the body’s attempt to regulate and maintain balance. Instead of resisting discomfort, we breathe into it, inviting the natural intelligence of the bones to harmonize from within. Just as a compassionate touch in bodywork reassures the emotional self, Bone Breathing is a form of self-contact—a way of touching our deepest structure with unconditional presence.

To fully embody this practice, we cultivate a receptive, effortless approach—one where we are not “doing” Bone Breathing but rather allowing the breath to be absorbed into the marrow. This is Chi at work. The bones, like deep wells, naturally draw in energy when we remove tension and trust the process. When practiced with deep listening rather than effort, Bone Breathing becomes a form of self-healing that restores not only physical vitality but also emotional and energetic alignment—without the need to “fix” anything

Module 2: The 5 Forces Shaping Human Destiny

A Taoist Perspective on the Elemental Forces Governing Life and Evolution

In the Taoist tradition, human destiny is shaped by the interplay of five fundamental elemental forces—Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal. These forces are not merely physical but deeply interwoven with our psychological, emotional, and spiritual evolution. Understanding their dynamics allows us to align with the natural flow of existence, shaping our destiny through conscious engagement with these forces.

Water: The Force of Creation and Potential


Destiny Aspect: The Root of Life, Willpower, and Instinct

  • Water represents the primordial source of life, carrying genetic memory, willpower, and the essence of creation.
  • It governs intuition, dreams, and the capacity for deep trust in the unfolding of destiny.
  • When balanced, Water grants inner strength, effortless progress, and creative power. When weak, it manifests as fear, insecurity, and survival-based thinking.

Water and Human Evolution:

  • Water reflects how we respond to the unknown—our courage or fear in facing the mysteries of life.
  • It is the force behind ancestral memory and deep-seated karmic patterns.
  • Liberated Water: Chooses freedom over fear. Develops trust in the unknown.
  • Lasting wisdom comes from embracing emptiness and stepping into the unknown.

Wood:The Force of Growth and Evolution

Destiny Aspect: The Power of Intelligence, Expansion, and Direction

  • Wood symbolizes the drive to grow, plan, and strategize. It governs the nervous system and the ability to analyze, plan, and execute life’s vision.
  • A healthy Wood force fosters resilience, clarity, and a sense of purposeful direction. A weak Wood energy leads to confusion, impulsiveness, and rigidity.

Wood and Human Evolution:

  • It determines how we process information, adapt, and expand our consciousness.
  • It holds the ability to transmute raw potential (Water) into structured wisdom.
  • Liberated Wood: Faces everything with courage and hides nothing from itself.

 

Fire: The Force of Spirit and Passion

Destiny Aspect: The Illumination of the Soul’s Path

  • Fire is the force of inspiration, connection, and spiritual vision. It fuels enthusiasm, joy, and purpose.
  • A balanced Fire allows for clear inner guidance and meaningful relationships, while an imbalanced Fire results in burnout, imptience, and guilt.

Fire and Human Evolution:

  • Fire dictates how we connect with our soul’s mission and bring light into the world.
  • It determines our ability to integrate wisdom into lived experience.
  • Liberated Fire: Recognizes that life happens for us not to us.
  • We heal when we take full responsibility for our past actions and experiences.

Earth: The Force of Stability and Harmony

Destiny Aspect: The Anchor of Presence and Manifestation

  • Earth governs our ability to be present, grounded, and supported by life. It is the force of satisfaction, balance, and interconnectedness.
  • A healthy Earth element brings trust in life’s unfolding, while an imbalanced Earth manifests as anxiety, overthinking, or instability.

Earth and Human Evolution:

  • Earth energy determines how well we integrate knowledge into wisdom and manifest our potential into reality.
  • It is the bridge between spiritual insight and practical action.
  • Liberated Earth: Recognizes that freedom is for the whole, not just the self.
  • True fulfilment comes from aligning with the greater good and serving evolution itself.

Metal: The Force of Refinement and Destiny’s Alignment

Destiny Aspect: The Cutting Edge of Transformation and Higher Awareness

  • Metal governs discernment, emotional sensitivity, and the ability to let go of what no longer serves.
  • A balanced Metal energy enables precision, refinement, and mastery of life. When weak, it manifests as depression, emotional numbness, cynicism & rigidity.

Metal and Human Evolution:

  • Metal determines our ability to shape and refine our destiny through conscious choice.
  • It represents the soul’s ability to distil wisdom from emotional experience.
  • Liberated Metal: Lets go of personal attachment and embraces true objectivity.
  • Liberation happens when we release the illusion of a fixed self and surrender to the greater whole.

Module 3: The 6 Conditions for Healing

Understand and experience these 6 conditions in yourself so you can support them in others.

Healing isn’t just about techniques—it’s about creating the right internal and external environment for transformation. The six conditions for healing form a natural sequence, each one unlocking the next.

1. Safety: EARTH 

2. Quieting the Mind: WOOD 

3. Permission to Feel Fully: METAL 

4. The Sacredness of all Feelings: FIRE 

5. Breakthrough & Change: WATER 

6. Integration & Support: EARTH

PLEASE NOTE Healing isn’t just about transformation—it’s about stabilizing & Integrating the new state. The nervous system must integrate the changes, and support from the practitioner, community, or environment and is crucial for lasting transformation. (This is why we have a Bone Breathing community & the support of elders.)

Module 4: Sun and Moon as Higher Octaves of Male & Female

Healing Ancestral Conditioning Through Bone Breathing

When practicing Bone Breathing, we engage with the deep ancestral pain stored in humanity—energetic imprints passed down through generations that shape our beliefs, emotions, and physiology. These unconscious patterns are often locked within the bones, heart, and reproductive system, limiting our full creative and spiritual potential.

To dissolve these inherited imprints, we need the neutral healing forces of:

  • The Sun – Dissolves false Yin distortions stored in the reproductive system, restoring creative power.
  • The Moon  – Dissolves false masculine imprints in the heart, releasing impatience, hurt, and victimization.

By activating these forces through specific Taoist alchemical pathways, we realign with our original innocence, restoring balance between the masculine and feminine within.

The Two Taoist Alchemical Pathways

The Sun and Moon energies flow through two primary internal alchemical pathways, which facilitate deep transformation:

The Spinal Pathway (Sun Energy)

  • Clears false Yin distortions, often experienced as guilt, shame, suppression, or creative blockages in the reproductive system.
  • Travels from the Pineal Gland (Upper Dantian) down the spine to the sexual center (Lower Dantian).
  • Restores creative life-force and aligns the lower body with divine clarity.
  • As forgiveness dissolves ancestral repression, we reclaim our sexual vitality, spontaneity, and capacity to manifest.

The Front Yin Pathway (Moon Energy)

  • Dissolves false masculine imprints of impatience, emotional hurt, and victimization stored in the heart.
  • Flows downward from the Pituitary Gland (3rd Eye) to the Heart.
  • The Moon’s cooling energy calms ancestral fire, allowing us to trust the unfolding of life without control or resistance.
  • By embracing compassion and deep acceptance, we liberate the heart from past wounds and shift from a defensive state to an open, more innocent presence.

Module 5: Holding Space & Guiding Others

  • The art of facilitating a Bone Breathing session
  • How to hold a safe and transformative space for others
  • Recognizing energetic resistance and working through blockages
  • Ethics and responsibility as a facilitator
  • Integrating Bone Breathing into healing work and daily life
  • Final Bone Breathing Practice: Embodying the facilitator role
  • Opportunities for continued practice and community engagement
