Taoism, Sex, and Intimacy Part II: Techniques of the Taoist Bedchamber

Taoist sexual practices literally translates to the “Art of the Bedchamber”. The Art of the Bedchamber is how some Taoists practice the act of sex. The act of sex is also known as “He Qi” or “Joining Energy” or “The Joining of the Essences.” Some Taoists believed that engaging in the sexual art of the bedchamber, one may achieve good health, longevity, and even immortality. Based on the theories of “Unifying Heaven and Human” and “Unifying Body and Soul”, the purpose of this sexual art is to improve health, happiness, and procreation. Both theory and technique are equally essential.

In this class, Dr. Alex Chen discusses techniques of the Taoist Bedchamber. He focuses on activities to avoid, sexual art strategies to promote health, the Five Organ Qi, the Eight Benefits, the Seven Damages, and beneficial Qi Gong exercises.
