Qi Gong and T'ai Chi have helped people with all types of energy needs.  Qi Gong and T'ai Chi work best for people who want to feel their inner power come to the surface, and use their power to transform their life beyond their expectations for what is possible or is a person who knows they need to act positively to preserve their health and vitality.

Welcome. I am Jack Neff.  I provide premium Qi Gong and T'ai Chi experiences www.healingandthemind.com

I personally design and conduct every Qi Gong and T'ai Chi training. Since 1992 I have lead over 1,000 students in over 700 classes for more than 15 years in Qi Gong and T'ai Chi Ch'uan.  My personal regimen is over 30 years of daily experience using the same exercises offered here.  Click here to see "Special Offers"

For more than 10 years I led weekly classes in the Yang Style Long Form T'ai Chi Ch'uan under the late Marvin Smalheiser (1931-2016), Editor/Publisher of T'ai Ch'i, the international magazine of T'ai Ch'i Ch'uan, which just concluded its 39th year of continuous publication.

At a critical point in my energy development, Dr. Liu Ti, L.Ac., a faculty cardiologist at Fujin University Hospital, introduced himself to me and taught me how to use my breath to cultivate a relaxed, calm but alert attitude and gain largely the same "rooted" benefit as daily T'ai Ch'i Ch'uan (which takes much more effort to learn) using "Return To The Beginning," the complete 8-movement sequence taught in the Qi Gong Breath Connection Premium Package.  Click here to see more about the Qi Gong Breath Connection Package.

Qi Gong adds to your own personal vibrant channel to bring yourself together as you always wished you could do.The goal is deeper, more relaxed breathing, awakened power within the mind and to experience pleasant physical sensations throughout the body.  Students are encouraged to practice Qi Gong at home for lifelong results, but will obtain solid experience if using training alone.

Committed to Accessibility

Qi Gong skills can awaken sensations in people of all abilities.  If you are of well-below average physical fitness or  chair-bound, please email me by clicking here.  I will create a Premium Package for sitting or floor Qi Gong which will get results of feeling better and creating health using healing self-massage.

This website's name was inspired by "Healing and the Mind", a 5-hour documentary film broadcast on PBS in 1995, because the subject of healing and the mind is at the heart of our remarkable results.

More Testimonials

"Jack was very helpful in guiding me to certain simple, gentle exercises to help repair my months-long shoulder injury. He asked the right questions before we got started, which gave me a sense of confidence in his skills and knowledge."



Doria Cook-Nelson, T'ai Chi Ch'uan Teacher

"Jack Neff was a pleasure to meet. We had grown up in a similar taijiquan 'neighborhood', the small circle of original Los Angeles traditional taiji masters. It made it easy for me to ask him on occasion to act as a substitute teacher for me.

I knew his teacher(s) had trained him with the essential fundamentals that any taiji form must have for authentic practice, i.e. multiple benefits. Yin yang practice covers a kaleidoscope of requirements for achieving true balance. Teaching without a fair amount of traditional taijiquan background limits the benefits for both teacher and student, a lifetime of success is possible of course but not common.

I recognized the look of joy for practice, in Jack. His quiet enthusiasm is welcoming. He believes in what he teaches, knows the benefits first hand.

I would know to recommend him as I am, for over 40 years, both a teacher/and continuing internal martial (and healing) arts practitioner student.

All the best to you, Jack!"

Christine, Nutritionist

"Jack Neff's knowledge of the Chinese healing and martial arts is very deep. It's not easy to find people of such dedication and commitment, and Jack is one of those people in spades. His love of T'ai Chi Ch'uan and Fan Huan Gong is contagious! Best of all, he displays great patience and kindness in his teaching." 

 Denise, College Professor

"After attending and enjoying Jack Neff's "egg exercise" at Franklin Canyon Park, I not only felt better but I think it may have contributed to my excellent outcome and experience with IVF.  We only used one egg (even though most people are told to use two) and aside from having an amazing confidence in my fertility doctor, this exercise may have been a contributing factor to the wondrous experience that  was the birth of my little boy who is now a mini-man at age 5.  Thank you Jack. You are a force of nature."

Linda, Physical Therapist

"Mr. Neff is a skilled and supportive instructor whose impressive understanding of the art of Qi Gong is a joy to share. He leads students in the basic movements, imagery, and breath and energy work inherent to Qi Gong, imparting wisdom along the way in his own warm and kind manner.

Personally, I have experienced an increased sense of appreciation for the life force within my own body and a willingness to nurture it more attentively."
