About Wu
Shamanic Training
In addition to my traditional studies in Classical Chinese medicine, Nei Gong and Antiquity Daoist medicine I have undergone intense immersion within the Internal Alchemical Arts sector.
In the last decade, I have dedicated more than five hours a day to deep practice within the internal arts and craft of direct revelation. You can do the math to reveal the immense practice it takes to ‘widdle the needle’ of the practitioner so to speak.
Wu Shamanism is a lifestyle just as much as an established medicine practice. Upon discovering this path, I have walked with embodied trust in nature and witnessed her innate capacity to bring balance, wholeness and equanimity into my daily practice and the lives of countless others.
I endeavour to be a student of life and of the mysteries of the greater world. Honoring the work before me is my way of honoring those who came before and those whom I am privileged to support.
The experience of a serious health crisis spurred me to supplement my theoretical training in the philosophy of Chinese medicine and Nei Gong practices with the study of its alchemical counterpart within Daoist medicine and its advanced clinical protocols.
“My first Shamanic experience occurred at the tender age of 6 years old, where I faced a rare, foreign and mysterious disease that followed a near death encounter that both catalyzed my Shamanic abilities and expedited the emergence of my innate psychic gifts and dedication to the sacred medicine path. Since then, I have experienced several literal and metamorphic deaths and am well-versed in the alchemical arts and craft of negotiating the liminal space between life and death within the myriad multidimensional realities and invisible subtle forces architecting form. I spent the following 40 years refining my relationship with the Void, the eternal Dao, and walking the Wu Wei Path. These experiences weaved the fabric of my daily life forging my worldly existence. My Dharma is to pass on the wisdom of my inherent lineage and pursuits for the betterment of the awakening humanity and collective community.

Five Immortals
“Daoist Medicine can be defined as a practitioner in the process of passing on the Dao through medical activities, pursuing long life and cultivating immortality.”
Five Immortals
“This is the reason why any Daoist studying the Immortal Dao ought to know medicine. Daoists not engaging in the Immortal Dao cannot become Daoist doctors.”
