The Consciousness
of the Five Elements
An Advanced Course with Grand Master Nan Lu
 Launching February 22, 2025 | Earn Continuing Education Credits
There’s a greater consciousness pattern guiding the human experience—a wisdom ancient masters understood for thousands of years. Yet, as modern life evolved, we shifted from connection and flow to uncertainty. This narrowed our mind-body-spirit potential and created a disconnect from natural law.
Desperate for answers, many are turning back to ancient traditions of natural healing. Yet, this area is often clouded by misinformation and superficial applications. For three decades, I have been immersed in studying the Five Elements, Yin-Yang theory, and meridian principles, applying this ancient wisdom to help patients and students reach their true healing potential. My focus goes beyond surface-level practices, guiding individuals toward genuine transformation by aligning with the natural laws of the body and the Universe.

Since childhood, my life has been influenced by ancient teachings and the martial arts. My exploration into traditional Chinese medicine started over thirty years ago when I began my clinical practice. I was fortunate to meet a gifted master with remarkable talents who guided me to discover a depth of wisdom beyond any techniques I had known. Today, that passion remains as strong as ever and I continue to discover the innate power of the Five Element Consciousness Framework, which aligns beautifully with modern science at its deepest level.Â
As a spiritual teacher, Wu Ming Qigong master, and doctor of Chinese medicine, I teach Qigong practices and guide patients to transform their lives, recognizing the role of consciousness in addressing physical, emotional, and spiritual imbalances. I now look forward to guiding you on this powerful path toward Universal Oneness.

“Master Lu is a rare and gifted teacher. He shows his students exactly how mind, body and spirit are connected by Qi. He has shown me how to use Qigong along with key principles of Chinese Medicine to experience profound self-healing. As a psychologist long interested in energy work,  I’ve applied his teachings to help my clients open up their intuition, creativity, and healing gifts.”

Past President, The Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology
 “Never have I had a teacher who has been so easily able to take all of the aspects of health—mental, physical, diet, exercise, genetics—and unite them under one simple philosophy. Instead of reciting the same memorized facts to patients, I am able to bring a new perspective that allows them to see their health differently and to completely change their lives.”

His profound teachings and my immersion in Wu Ming Qigong have taken me far beyond my education as a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and have propelled my personal spiritual journey, resulting in a balanced life and a thriving practice. This is a path of transformation at the highest level.”

Testimonials
“My beloved teacher Grand Master Lu has transformed my life and so many others within his own evolution as teacher/practitioner. The convergence of Wu Ming Qigong practices with understanding the body’s potential for true balance within the Five Element Consciousness Framework has led to profound lifelong shifts.”
— Deborah Hallahan
Business Owner, Dragon's Way Qigong® Instructor, and Medical Qigong Practitioner
 “Many years ago, as a patient, I was encouraged by Master Lu to look beyond “common” knowledge and see the bigger picture. At the time, I didn’t understand what that meant, but something about it intrigued me, and I trusted the path. Under Master Lu’s guidance, I began to see human life as a reflection of the greater cosmos—a profound concept that continues to unfold and shape my reality.
This journey required dedication on my part, but the true gift was having a master who recognized potential in me and has continued to guide me, even now, 23 years later. My advice? Don’t wait. When you find something that resonates deeply with you, take the leap—hold your nose and jump in!”
— Elaine Katen, Director
