Simplicity - Compassion - Humility

Taoism is an ancient Chinese philosophy based on simplicity, compassion, and humility. The purpose of this website is to share information about Taoism, its practices, and applications in contemporary society.

Taoism is not something a person becomes or converts too. Taoism is about self discovery, living a life in balance with society and the environment, and maintaining emotional and physical vibrancy.

What is Vibrancy?

In a contemporary culture where people seek the accoutrements of the good life, they may loose themselves in the process. What ancient cultures recognized is vibrancy is an outgrowth and manifestation of a life lived in balance. A life lived in harmony with its environment. A life nourished by wholesome food. A life that is supported by stimulating as a well as calming activity. A life in which one's connection with the outer community and larger community is affirmed and validated. In such a context what all the ancient cultures knew is the human psyche has a maximum ability to be strong and resilient to embrace and grow from whatever pain and loss are a natural part of human life.
