Welcome back to the Body of Wisdom podcast! In this episode, I'm thrilled to be joined by Sarina Stone, an internationally renowned Medical Chi Kung (Qigong) instructor, abdominal massage (chi nei tsang) expert, natural health advocate, and author of seven books (as well as the host of Mantak Chia's podcast!). Sarina shares her incredible journey from Renaissance fair performer to Taoist practitioner. Discover how a chance encounter with a cassette tape and a dedication to self-healing led Sarina to become a master teacher and healer. We dive into the power of the mind-body connection, the simplicity and effectiveness of Taoist practices, and the transformative impact of cultivating self-awareness and a connection with natural healing modalities. In this episdoe we cover:  How a cassette tape led to life-changing healing from scoliosis Mantak Chia's advice to Sarina when he first saw her 'healing hands' The simple yet effective Taoist practices that have changed Sarina's life The principles of chi nei tsang (Taoist abdominal massage) and its benefits The importance of knowing that we all have the power to heal ourselves and create our reality The quantum nature of Taoist teachings The importance of taking the practice out of the dojo and into the 'real world' Predictions from Taoist masters as to humanity's future The importance of raising healthy, conscious children And so much more! I was fortunate enough to take a weekend course with Sarina in 2023 and she will be visiting Australia again in 2025 - I'd highly recommend studying with her if you're interested in learning more about chi nei tsang or Taoist healing techniques.  So much gratitude to Sarina for this incredible episode and for her teachings.  Sarina's website: https://www.sarinastone.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_taolady/  Online certification courses: https://www.sarinastone.com/online-store/Online-Certification-Courses-c124212346  Online consultations: https://www.sarinastone.com/online-store/Private-Consultations-c21680973  Inner Alchemy Practices (Inner Smile, Microcosmic Orbit etc): https://www.sarinastone.com/online-store/Classic-Medical-Qigong-Inner-Alchemy-c21680972
