After surviving a serious traffic accident in 1996, I realized that although Western medicine and scientific advances saved my life, they had no answer\/proposal for many of my questions and sequelas. Due to this, and seeking to fully recover my health, I began to explore various treatments and complementary medicines, starting with the Bach Flowers, and continuing with Reiki, Yoga, the Silva Method, herbal medicine, etc. The truth is that since then I have had the fortune of being able to continue learning and training in very different techniques, and today I continue to explore new knowledge and practices, since it is something that I am passionate about.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Regarding Taoism, although I had read books on the subject well before my accident (the first of them, the famous \u00ab<em>The Tao of Health, Sex and Long Life\u00bb,\u00a0<\/em> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.danreid.org\">Daniel Reid<\/a>), I practically rediscovered this whole field in the year 2004, when living in Brussels, thanks to Shiatsu and other similar practices based on Traditional Chinese Medicine. Since then I have been attending workshops in different Taoist practices during the last 15 years in Brussels, Madrid, Barcelona, the Canary Islands, and in Thailand (at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mantakchia.com\/tao-garden\/\">Tao Garden<\/a>), having been certified in 2017 as an Instructor of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mantakchia.com\/es\/universal-healing-tao\/\">Universal Healing Tao System<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mantakchia.com\/about-mantak-chia\/\">Great Taoist Master Mantak Chia<\/a>, and having been the Organizer for Spain of the European tour of Master Chia in 2018, 2019, 2023 and 2024. Currently I\u00b4m <a href=\"https:\/\/www.universaltaoinstructors.com\/uht-global-contacts\/\">Country Coordinator for Spain<\/a> of the Universal Healing Tao System.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, and with the aim of starting to share what I have been learning since my accident, I have facilitated Chi Kung, Tao Yin (Taoist yoga), meditation \/ mindfulness and relaxation workshops in yoga centers, universities, private companies, hospitals , public bodies and international organizations in Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa. I also work in <a href=\"https:\/\/taoyoga.es\/en\/private-sessions\/\">private sessions<\/a> in which I combine several of the techniques in which I have been trained (Coaching, Hypnosis, Reiki, NLP, guided meditations, relaxation, massage, etc.),.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<pre style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-55 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/taoyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/MG_3792-300x185.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"386\" height=\"238\" \/><em><strong>With Taoist Master Mantak Chia. \nThailand 2017<\/strong><\/em><\/pre>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><u><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\">Adicional<\/span>\u00a0trainings<\/u>:<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&#8211;
