Recover Yourself with Tao Te Ching Wisdom

Support Group

Burnout is the symptom. Loss of self is the cause. Recover your mind, your time, and your health, guided by the ancient wisdom of Lao Tzu.

Reaching Out to the Sun

Free Yourself with Your Own Awareness

The Tao Te Ching teaches that true recovery is not about escaping the past, it is about returning to yourself. That is the foundation of everything we do here.

We all have thought patterns that control how we react. They have been with us since childhood but most of us aren't aware of when, how, or why, they take control. 

Your patterns are unique and so are your solutions. The only way to reach beyond those familiar patterns is to become aware of when they are triggered within you. 

You have wasted enough time living as if you are not the god you were born to be. It is time to recover that, it's time to recover your Self!

Testimonial

Jay K.

Workshop

After living most of my adult life feeling angry, frustrated and victimized, I set out on a journey to reconnect with myself. A few years into my voyage, I encountered MartinJon doing his incredible work. I was intrigued at this seemingly crass and self acclaimed “woowoo” person who would often describe life as being easy! While working with MartinJon, I was inspired to look within and observe without judgement. He helped me see many reoccurring experiences from a very different perspective. I then gradually began to let go… I let go of needing to control outcomes and people, let go of the anger that has plagued my life and relationships, I let go and began to see ME again. MartinJon’s insightfulness guided me while I I did the hard work that would help me to learn how to love ALL of the parts of myself. The work that helped me begin discovering MY perfection and not some unattainable definition of the word. And now, for the first time ever, I am feeling unafraid and excited about whatever lies ahead!

#18 "Out of Touch with Tao"
When out of touch with Tao
Etiquette is observed.
When etiquette cannot be abided
We find excuses to make it proper.
When excuses gut the family,
Chaos favors the hierarchy.
When all the neighbors are in chaos
Blind loyalty is demanded.

#22 "Looking Away from What You Want"
To become complete
Know that you're partial.
To become straight
Know that you're crooked.
To become full
Know that you're empty.
To be new
Know that you're worn out.
He who wants it all
Must know what all includes.

Thus, the Master stays centered in Tao
And becomes an example for the world.
Because she knows her light is forfeit
People can see it.
Because she has no point to prove
People can trust her words.
Because she has no identity
She becomes a mirror for others.
Because she has nothing to attain
Nothing can be kept from her.

Thus, when it is said
"To become complete know that you're partial."
It is wise to heed and surrender to it.
Only by living in collaboration with Tao
Can one find completion.

#37 "Inspired Action"
Tao never does anything
Yet inspires everything to do.

When beings maintain the action of Tao
They spontaneously transform from within.
When that transformation acquires a name (an identity)
External forces inspire actions from desire.

Actions without identity
Are free from external goals.
Without desire, honoring stillness,
All things are at peace.

#58 "To Oversee, Don't Interfere"
In overseeing anything, don't interfere,
Let everything flourish in its own time.
Interfering, you get met with resistance
Or worse, apathetic adherence.

Misery and misfortune are tied to expectation.
To expect success is to focus on failure,
To expect happiness is to invite misery,
To expect moral adherence is to flirt with tragedy.
There is no escaping it, expecting good yields bad,
This is interfering, it has always been true.

The Master therefore is content to simply be an example
She has no desire to impose, and trusts all she oversees,
She is firm but yielding, she is sharp, yet none are cut by her
She is radiant, but easy on the eyes.
