Inner Alchemy

The body is the first temple, and in this temple there are many mysteries and many powers. Using energy techniques drawn from Taoist, Tantric, Norse, Chaos Magic and many other traditions, this workshop will introduce attendees to the key ideas and practices of inner alchemy.

Using imagination and simple postures, participants will learn to cultivate and direct the subtle body energy variously known as chi, ki, mana, prana and by many other names.

Julian Vayne's clear approach will help participants navigate the complexity of these systems to discover the core of body energy magic for healing, transformation, spell casting and divination.
