Step outside the noise. Step into your practice.
A 3-Day Tai Chi & Qigong immersion for those ready to transform from the inside out.
Henderson Smith - Living Well Therapies -a long-time friend and collaborator of Houston Zen Center, is offering a weekend retreat at Auspicious Cloud Zen Retreat Center.
This retreat is for you if…
You feel like stress, tension, or mental fatigue has become your new normal
You have a meditation, yoga, or movement practice but something is still missing
You are curious about Tai Chi or Qigong and want more than a YouTube video
You are looking for a community of people who take their wellness seriously
You want practice skills — not just inspiration — that you can use when you get home
You need a genuine break from the pace of daily life
This retreat probably is not for you if…
You are looking for a passive spa weekend with facials and room service
You are not open to exploring how your mind, body, and breath are connected to your experience of life
No prior experience with Tai Chi or Qigong is required. Henderson’s teaching style is welcoming, practical, and meets people at every level.
The retreat center features shared communal living — a beautiful part of the community experience. If not for everyone. Prefer a private room? Download our Nearby Hotels Guide.
