            It sounds complicated but, in fact, these are natural processes and it only takes time to learn the various practices. For more information, I would recommend Mantak Chia’s books about the cultivation of sexual energy which can be found on the book market or as e-books on the web.

            Instead of a conclusion, I would like to share my personal experience with Taoist practices. I have been dealing more seriously with them for three years now. The system is designed to meet the requirement of modern lifestyle. As you see, Taoists use natural physiological processes as the basis of all their practices. Anyway, I stretch in the morning and why not add an inner smile and a little extra stretching and "bending" of the body. It takes not more than 15-20 minutes.
            Similarly I use the "Healing sounds" when I need them. I can do this exercise everywhere and as appropriate. If there are people around me, I do it without sounds, so no one knows what I am doing; if I am alone, I bring out as many negative emotions as I can. I am trying to keep myselfwell- stretched and in good shape and I am using Tao Yin exercises for this purpose. Taoist practices are a great addition to any sport, if a person decides that he or she wants something more dynamic.
            Let me be clear that the practices are not a panacea. They do what they have been created for and can improve our lives by changing ourselves. We cannot control or change the events and the people around us but we can change the way we perceive the developments around us and the way they affect us.
            I am a very emotional person and, through the practices, I have found out that I am keeping a lot of things inside myself. I am trying to change the things I do not like or those that hurt me but the process is very slow because they have been inside me for years. Taoist practices are a way of life. You cannot exercise them once and believe that they will be effective as long as you live. This would be better but it is unreal because we do not stop creating emotions and unpleasant things are constantly happening to us. What I like is that they work for me personally.
             The Universal Healing Tao system has attracted me for several reasons. Firstly, it is developing and trying to include everything like medical achievements and scientific research that might help those who are practising it understand it better. Secondly, in the system, there is respect for the people from whom we obtain knowledge but this is not a cult to a guru. Thirdly, it all depends on the practitioner as no one is pushing me, checking or restricting me. This is because the system applies the Taoist principle of knowledge sharing. If every person in a group shares the difficulties encountered and the group finds a solution to them, then all who are experiencing similar difficulties can benefit from this solution. We are social creatures and we easily learn in a group. Discipline is important for our independent daily activities.
            I would say in conclusion that the people who are practising this system are like everyone else, they are neither better, nor worse. There is no perfect system like there are no perfect people. I am saying this because I do not want the readers to have unrealistic and idealistic expectations. However, there is a friendly attitude and a spirit of sharing and then, it all depends on your personal interests, abilities and desire for self-discovery.
