Reconnect with yourself

The solution to our health problems lies within – it’s our body’s natural power to regenerate and heal. And that’s the secret of Master Yang’s transformational method – to reconnect us with our natural state, unlocking our self-healing potential.

The Internal Art
of Nei Gong

Nei Gong as taught by Master Zhen Hua Yang is focussed upon reconnecting with the wisdom of the body through the regulation of three main circulations within the human body: blood circulation, mental/nervous circulation and digestive circulation. These circulations are the pillars of longevity and good health.

Calligraphy Health through enhancing these three circulations increases the longevity of internal organs while making the body soft, supple and elastic. It produces a physical lightness, setting the environment for self-healing. It also brings deep calm and peace, grounding us, and producing a happiness that is internal, void of external conditions. This is what Master Yang calls “cell’s smile”.

Making complicated things simple

Master Yang’s true skills are shown in his ability to share the complicated Nei Gong methods and practices in a simple and comprehensible way.

Ancient wisdom for modern times

As a holistic system, Calligraphy Health has been built on the principles of Daoism, Buddhism and Confucianism, embodying all of their values.

Daoism

Daoism looks out to nature, uniting heaven, human and earth as one while inspiring us to live in harmony with the rhythms of the universe. This way of living leads to inner peace.

Buddhism

Buddhism explores the nature of the universe through the actions and belief that comes from compassion to self and others. To find a truly happy, joyful life through doing good things.

Confucianism

Confucianism is based on the virtues of respect and trust. As students we learn to respect our teacher and the lineage, respect nature and everything around us.

Gentle, yet strong like a brushstroke

Calligraphy – the revered Chinese ancient art – moves the brush on the paper as if it is an extension of the body. During Calligraphy Health training through a combination of breath, mind and movement, the flow, like the brush of the calligraphy artist, is achieved – continuous, gentle, yet strong, and full of energy. 

Tian Ren He Yi
天人合一

The concept of Tian Ren He Yi (the unity of heaven and human) originated in traditional philosophies of Taoism and Confucianism, is deeply embedded in Calligraphy Health practice. 

It embodies the idea that humans should strive to live in harmony with both the natural world and with one another, in order to achieve a state of balance and well-being. Calligraphy Health practice achieves this by creating a harmony on a micro level, with one’s own body, that will naturally, without force, make one more aligned with nature and with others – with Heaven above and Earth below.
