In a clip taken from our upcoming in-depth conversation, Ken explores the funadmental focal point(s) of Taoist (Daoist) Wellness, known as the dantian. These "elixr fields" or "energy centers" have significant importance in Tai Chi and Qi Gong practice, and Ken offers insights into their association with energy storage and flow within the body.

The understanding of the concept of the dan tian serves as a foundation for various practices such as Daoist healing, meditation and Qi Gong. As Ken explains, diverse interpretations of dantian theory provide different perspectives on how energy operates within the body, but most theories agree they play a crucial role as areas with heightened potential for storing and circulating energy.
The integration of Western science and Eastern traditions in Cohen's teachings is both fascinating and rewarding for practitioners such as myself, and hopefully for you too!
