Neidan (Internal Alchemy)

Neidan, or Internal Alchemy, is a traditional Chinese practice focusing on cultivating inner energy (qi), mind, and spirit to achieve health, longevity, and spiritual insight. It involves techniques such as meditation, breath control, visualization, and mindful movement to transform and refine one's internal vitality. The goal is to harmonize the body's natural energies, leading to overall well-being and spiritual growth. Rooted in Daoist philosophy, Neidan emphasizes self-awareness and inner cultivation as a way to attain balance and, ultimately, enlightenment.
