A Taoist Master Explains Energetic Cultivation & Bioelectric Science with Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming
Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming on Qigong, Energy Cultivation & the Bioelectric Body: Taoist Wisdom Meets Modern Science
Can cultivating Qi transform your mind, body, and consciousness?
In this illuminating conversation, we’re joined by Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming - a world-renowned martial artist, scholar, and teacher of Qigong, Taijiquan (Tai Chi), and Taoist philosophy. With over 35 books published and a PhD in mechanical engineering, Dr. Yang brings rare clarity to the intersection of ancient Chinese energetics and Western science.
We explore the anatomy of energy from multiple perspectives: the meridians and dantians of Qigong, the chakras of Indian yoga, and the body's bioelectric field as understood through physics. Dr. Yang explains how energy flows through our system like electricity through a circuit, and how long-term Qi cultivation can lead to greater health, stillness, clarity, and even enlightenment.
He shares why women often have strong innate Qi and natural healing sensitivity, how Indian yogic teachings influenced Chinese Qigong, and what it really means to practice Wu Wei - effortless action from an awakened state.
In this episode, we explore:
- What Qi is - from both Taoist and scientific views
- The relationship between energy flow and emotional health
- The parallels between the nervous system and the central Qi system
- How internal energy work awakens perception and vitality
- Taoist principles like Wu Wei and energetic stillness
- Enlightenment as an energetic process of increasing and balancing flow
This is a conversation for seekers, martial artists, and healers ready to understand the invisible architecture of the body and the untapped potential of human consciousness.
About Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming:
Dr. Yang is the founder of the Yang’s Martial Arts Association (YMAA), with over 30 schools worldwide. He trained intensively in White Crane Kung Fu, Long Fist, and Yang-style Taijiquan, and has taught globally for decades. He now continues to teach and write from his base in Northern California.
