International Taoist Meditation Institute
(ITMI)

ITMI Logo.avif

The International Taoist Meditation Institute (ITMI) serves to sustain and share the ancient meditation practices passed down through the ages in the Integral Way Taoist tradition.  

ITMI also trains teachers so that these sacred Taoist practices can be shared in their entirety, with integrity, & through thorough instruction. 

Ancient meditations are more relevant than ever for sustaining balance in the modern world.  

The most important meditation technique is being centered without falling asleep. It is not mantra. It is not a sutra. It is not visualization. It is just to awaken. You keep the sense of awakening within; that is the best centering. In the Tao Teh Ching, that is called the mystical castle or the mystical point.
-- Om Ni
