Cultivating Resilience: Lessons from a Taoist Master

Episode Summary

With Master Arthur Levitan, a Taoist master who has battle tested the philosophy he spent decades learning. Through the study and application of the ancient wisdom of Taoism, of which he is one of the only ordained masters in the West*, Master Levitan found not only a path towards survival, but a means to living a life of contentment and resilience. Based in Boston, he is a modern teacher in a lineage that has been passed exclusively from teacher to student for over 2,500 years. As one of the few Taoist Masters in the Western World, Master Levitan is in a unique position of having both the knowledge and authority to translate this complicated, ancient wisdom into proper modern form. His school, Quantum Tao (since 2009), emphasizes practical daily applications of Tao and the practice of Qigong with the goal of simplifying the principles of Tao in order to make them useful for Americans in their everyday life. Join us in this conversation for numerous pieces of wisdom that will help you in building resilience, asking for help, successfully building your team (and your business), and showing up to your life whether as a parent, partner, or leader, with deeper acceptance, authenticity, and capacity for increased personal leadership.
