what we do
Chi Nei Tsang Summer Retreat – Crete 2025
The Power of Nei Tsang Therapy
The Chi Nei Tsang School at Orizon Center for Life and Creation offers a transformative and deeply authentic experience to people from all walks of life.
Chi Nei Tsang is an ancient Taoist abdominal healing practice that goes beyond physical touch. It works on the emotional and energetic body, helping to release deep-rooted blockages and outdated emotional patterns. As Ingrid Margarita Strobl, founder of Orizon, shares:
“All my healing work took on a new dimension. With Chi Nei Tsang, we can effectively transform and outgrow our emotional burdens. It’s truly amazing!”
This powerful method is rooted in the belief that everything happens for a reason—whether within our bodies or in our lives—and invites healing by embracing, not resisting, what is.
A Global Community Of Transformation
Every year, people from around the world come to Crete to learn and grow together. Whether you stay for one week or a full month, this experience brings together:
- Hands-on Chi Nei Tsang training led by experienced instructors.
- Crete’s powerful natural beauty as your healing backdrop.
- A sense of family, connection, and shared transformation.
A Rare Opportunity To Learn from The Master
We are delighted and excited to announce that Gilles Marin, master practitioner, author, and founder of the Chi Nei Tsang Institute, will personally lead the 2025 Crete Retreat at Orizon.
