Tai Chi Easy:  Flow into Vitality

Himalayan Institute Retreat Center~Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania Weekend Retreat: Friday evening-Sunday afternoon August 1-3, 2025

 Join us this summer for a soul-enriching Tai Chi Easy retreat, thoughtfully designed to revitalize your body, calm your mind, and deepen your connection with nature.

Over this transformative weekend:

• Learn the graceful, 7-step Tai Chi Easy form—a flowing, Yang-style practice that cultivates life force energy and builds inner resilience. By retreat’s end, you’ll be empowered to continue this practice daily at home, supporting a balanced life filled with peace, vitality, and well-being.

• Experience self-applied massage techniques that teach you to activate inner calm and unlock your body’s natural healing energy. These easy-to-learn methods combine massage with mindful breathing to release stress, boost circulation, and enhance relaxation—tools you’ll be able to turn to anytime, anywhere.

• Engage in rich discussions on the fascinating history and science behind Tai Chi and discover how Tai Chi embodies the Taoist philosophy of simplicity and harmony with nature.

• Invigorate your spirit daily with mindful qigong practices that harmonize breath, movement, and intention.

• Reconnect with the natural world on a mindful hike through forested trails. During this journey, you’ll explore qigong, yoga, and meditation practices to help you tap into nature’s wisdom along the path.

• Unwind with Saturday evening Restorative Yoga, surrendering into relaxation and culminating with Yoga Nidra—a deeply soothing guided meditation designed to restore body, mind, and spirit.

Perfect for all levels, this retreat invites you to “float like clouds, flow like water” and discover your quiet, unshakable inner strength. 

Join us for an unforgettable weekend of transformation, renewal, and connection to nature.
