Night Work

«In cultivating your mind you must know how to search in the depths.» — Lao Tze

A very powerful system of practices for self-knowledge and healing that proposes taking life as the true master. It is a weekly hour-long meditation class in which we share several kinds of practices, designed to introduce the practitioner into a natural state of consciousness that produces a particular sensitivity: energy, body and mind are perceived as a unity.

Within this state, which we call the primary nocturnal state, various attitudes are explored that help you know yourself more deeply and produce harmony in different areas of your life — especially in relation to the non-visible parts of the being: the subconscious, instinct and intuition.

First stage: learning to distinguish the different states of consciousness and knowing how to enter the nocturnal trance. In this state it is possible to explore the past and the present, discovering the natural potential each person holds.

Second stage: a process of energy enhancement begins in which creative capacity increases notably, which you learn to use within the practice and to carry into any area of life.

Night Work is a branch co-created by Gabriel Nieto together with his master Cai Wen Yu, the fruit of years of research shared also with master Li Fu Kuan — a path that included, in Nanyue, the encounter with a master who practiced night work. It takes the complete being as a unity, working in depth on its emotional, psychic, physical and spiritual facets. That is why it is not a generic method of general answers: it is a system that draws out the appropriate answers for each person.

Night Work explores what appears when habitual control diminishes: sleep, intimacy, deep perception, the collective body and the relationship between consciousness and nature.

It is a complete system of somatic, perceptual and communal cultivation. Among its practices: nocturnal zhangzhuang, universal breathing, the wheel of time, the sleeping monk, work with elixir, talismans of sounds and movements, the daily anchor exercise, collective rituals and research into sleep, wakefulness and hypnagogic states. One of its axes: human regulation is not only individual — it also occurs through bonding, the presence of others and the experience of community.

Feminine Alchemy

A loving gaze toward yourself.

Feminine Alchemy is a meditation system for women coming from Taoist culture, which invites you to create a healthy relationship with your body, pleasure and sexuality. It proposes a conscious exploration of yourself, bringing a loving gaze to the relationship with your body and opening a path of reconciliation and respect.

Renew the bond with your body. From respect, listening and non-violence, unblock the emotional obstacles that predispose you to a negative view of yourself.

Awaken vital and creative energy. Prepare your body with practices that stimulate vitality and balance desire, transforming blockages into potent, creative energy.

Stimulate sensitivity. Connect lovingly with your body and learn to give yourself what you need. Enjoy the fullness of your sensuality at every stage of life.

The practices are mostly individual and meditative exercises that you can do daily. They have almost no contraindications and are suitable for women of any age and stage.

Fifth stream

Taoist sexuality

Sexuality is a real part of Taoist teaching — we do not hide it, nor do we turn it into a marketing hook. We present it as a field of investigation into presence, sensitivity, intimacy, regulation, breathing, pleasure and bonding: a meditative, relational and potentially reparative space, always within consent, respect and care.

It includes shared meditation, the bedchamber arts, feminine and masculine alchemy, bodily listening and the therapeutic possibilities of sexual and affective experience. Neither commercial pornography nor repressive asceticism: a path of cultivation.
