Dhyana Bohnet (Xiwang-Mu) is a certified Medical Qigong teacher and practitioner with over 15 years of dedicated study and experience in the Daoist arts. Ordained as a Daoist Initiate in April 2025 through the American Dragon Gate Lineage (ADGL), she integrates deep traditional roots with modern clinical application.

Dhyana’s foundational training began in 2009 under Shifu Lichangdao (Michael Rinaldini), leading to her initial teacher certification in 2015. She is currently advancing her expertise through an additional 100-hour Advanced Qigong Certification. Her teaching experience is extensive; notably, she has led group Medical Qigong classes for patients at West County Health Centers since 2023 and has facilitated specialized Qigong programs for cancer recovery.

A board-certified Ayurvedic Practitioner since 2014, Dhyana utilizes a holistic approach that emphasizes self-empowering daily practices and the mind-body-spirit connection. These two Eastern health systems complement each other harmoniously in her work. Her Qigong instruction covers a diverse range of classic forms—including Shibashi, the Eight Silk Brocade, and Bagua Qigong Circle Walking—alongside internal cultivation techniques such as the Microcosmic Orbit and Dantian breathing. Through her private practice and community classes, she remains committed to sharing the transformative power of movement, breath, and consciousness to support nervous system regulation and the cultivation of healthy Qi flow.
