Taoist Thunder Magic for Modern Times
2025-10-08 18:00 - 19:00 | ONLINE
There is a moment before the storm when the world holds its breath.
The air thickens. The veil thins. A great intelligence stirs.
Then, with a single crack of light and sound, the Thunder Beings awaken—reminding us that we are not separate from the forces that shape creation. For those who listen, thunder is not merely sound; it is a summons.
Thunder Magic is an ancient Taoist and shamanic art that teaches us to walk in harmony with these celestial powers. It is the path of those who seek to meet the storm not with fear, but with reverence… and to let its current move through their spirit.
Through sacred sound, talismanic forms, and focused intention, Thunder Magic opens doorways between worlds—clearing stagnant energy, strengthening spiritual protection, and awakening hidden reservoirs of inner power.
In a time when chaos swirls in both the skies and human hearts, this is a practice for those who wish to stand in the eye of the storm, rooted in stillness, guided by lightning.
The storm is calling. Will you answer?
Have you ever felt the raw electricity of a thunderstorm vibrating in your bones? That surge of awe, fear, and fascination all at once? Thunder has always been more than weather—it is the voice of Heaven, the pulse of the cosmos, and the living current of Qi at its most primal.
Thunder Magic is an ancient Taoist practice that teaches you how to tap into this immense force—not to control nature, but to harmonize with it. For centuries, shamans and Taoist adepts called upon Thunder Magic for healing, protection, empowerment, and awakening. Now, for the first time, you have the chance to study this rare art in a way that bridges ancient ritual with modern energetic science.
Why Study Thunder Magic?

More Details:
This philosophical retreat program is a group of caring and deep thinking individuals who are committed to exploring their own self talk and mindscape of how they understand themselves emotionally / spiritually and how to make sense of the world around them. It is a place to be amongst thinkers, sharing in a mastermind approach, as well as based in Taoist principals. The next class begins in October, and is always the second weekend of the month, Sunday 9 am – 4pm ET.
This program runs for a year, with once a month weekend program of introspection, study, meditation and reflection. If monthly travel is not available, this is also available via live Zoom as well. (It is not recorded, as it is meant to be participatory and also to honor the sacred space for everyone sharing there) We would love to have your energy present on the mountain – as the group energy is so high and wonderful to bask in.
The time spent will be lecture on Taoist, Buddhist and Native American concepts of living without judgement, the art of happiness, dealing with death (transition) and loss of loved ones as well as learning new meditations to open up the chakras, removing Luo channels and cleansing the Po as just a few examples. We will also discuss how memory works (the Hun) and how to recover from trauma.
All things relative to the Mind are open for discussion. The objective is to walk away with new clarity of the energies of Heaven / Earth and how to be a better person suspended between them.
You can also drop in for one day, as your schedule permits, for $333, based on space available in the class.

our Heart Deserves More Than Pills and Procedures
Every 33 seconds, someone in America loses their life to cardiovascular disease. For many, the only tools offered are prescriptions or surgery—and while sometimes necessary, they are rarely the whole answer. What’s missing is knowledge. Knowledge that empowers you to take charge of your own heart health, naturally and effectively.
That’s why I created Cardiovascular Training for the Layperson and Professionals—a groundbreaking course designed to give you the tools your primary care doctor and even most cardiologists never teach.
Inside, you’ll discover:

Blood Work That Matters – Learn the 5 critical blood tests almost no one orders, and how to read them for yourself.
Energetic Blood Work – Ancient wisdom meets modern science to help you see the “invisible” patterns of health before they become disease.
Proven Protocols – Natural strategies for atherosclerosis, angina, hypertension, congestive heart failure, and stroke.
Herbal Truths – Which herbs actually work, and which are just hype.
Plaque Reversal – How to clear blockages in your heart, arteries, and even brain.
Exercise Reimagined – The real way to train your body for heart strength (hint: it’s not hours on the treadmill).

This course is for anyone—patients, caregivers, and even health professionals—who wants to go beyond the status quo.
Your heart is your most powerful muscle. Isn’t it time you gave it more than maintenance—gave it a chance to thrive?
