Taoist Longevity Practices

Taoist longevity practices focus on harmonizing the body, mind, and environment to promote health and extend life. They include techniques like Qigong and Tai Chi, which combine slow movements, breath control, and meditation to cultivate energy (Qi). Emphasis is placed on balanced diet, proper rest, and avoiding excess or stress. Taoism encourages living in harmony with nature’s rhythms, cultivating inner peace, and maintaining spiritual awareness. These practices aim to enhance vitality, prevent illness, and support a natural, balanced life as part of the Tao— the fundamental flow of the universe.
