My personal experience is that I’m an acupuncturist, have studies Chinese herbal medicine, and other branches of Chinese medicine (which really everybody studies when they go to acupuncture school), and I’m lucky enough to have had the same Taiji/Bagua/Qigong teacher for over 10 years. He is a lineage holder in both a Taiji lineage and in a Daoist lineage. So, I consider myself really lucky.
However, as for anyone entering into this way of looking at things, practicing Qigong is a really great start for transforming our understanding of our energy and how the plants, animals, trees, etc. have different energetic qualities. Also, Chinese herbal medicine (which really includes plants, animals, and mineral substances) is a great place for people to dive into this. It’s really important for people to realize that 1/3 to 1/2 of the Chinese pharmacopeia grows wild in this country. I think that the energetic approach to healing, foods, and medicines is one way for people to incorporate a Daoist aspect to their rewilding approaches.
