HEALING LOVE: A Taoist Internal Sexual Energy Practice
With Daria Fain
Sunday 6/2, 9 am - 12 pm & 1 - 4 pm
$50 for the first half / $100 for the full day
This workshop is designed for people with any gender identity and is trans-inclusive. Workshop offers all internal practices, which are done solo. This June workshop is an introduction to the full practice.
Heaving Love or working with Sexual Energy is a powerful, internal healing practice that works through the body and with the interdependence of our sexual organs, the glandular system, and all our organs.
Practicing Heaving Love regularly enhances sexual energy, enables greater sexual vitality, and multi-orgasmic pleasure, and uses sexual energy for spiritual transformation. Cultivating, conserving, redirecting, and circulating the generative force from the sexual organs to higher body centers invigorates and rejuvenates all the vital functions and activates higher frequency energies.
Learn Testicle and Ovarian Breathing, and Breast Massage. Mastering these practices produces a deep sense of respect for all forms of life.
The first half of the day is open to everyone. Anyone with experience with the Microcosmic Orbit may stay the full day.
Faïn began her journey in the bodymind within Chinese energetics with Master Karfung Wu instructing her in acupuncture principles, qigong, tai chi, nutrition, and Taoist philosophy between 1982-84 in Paris, France.
From 1984-86, Faïn traveled to the U.S. to work on her career as a dancer/choreographer and upon coming back to France, she studied with Dr. Jen, an acupuncturist, herbalist & martial artist from the Shaoling School for 7 years. During that period, Daria also studied Chinese mental energetics with Francisco Albuquerque for 2 years. In 1990 Faïn was certified as an Alexander Technique teacher.
In 1996, she moved to the U.S. when she began to study with Master Mantak Chia and in 2001 she received the Universal Healing Tao full instructor certificate. She continued her studies with Mantak Chia and certified for Do Yin, Tan Tien Qigong, Tai Chi, and Iron Shirt. In 2010 she was invited by the Universal Healing Tao for a conference at the Tao Garden in honor of Master Chia’s birthday to present her research project on a darkroom she created with her collaborator in New York City.
Faïn has also studied for 5 years with Frank Allen qigong, Bagua, and the Wu style Tai Chi.
Faïn has been studying Classical Chinese with Sabine Wilms for one year and a half to read Taoist texts in their original language. She is also currently studying Tibetan Buddhism with Lama Tsultrim since 2016.
