EXPAND YOUR INNER LANDSCAPE,TRANSFORM YOUR OUTTER REALITY
Welcome! I'm Megan Kaun
I'm thrilled you've joined me on this journey to
​​​
My path to consciousness-based practices like Zhineng Qigong and Grounded Consciousness Coaching (GCC) began as a search for deeper answers during life's most challenging moments. When facing things like a serious health diagnosis, shocking natural disasters, and helping loved ones through mental illness, conventional solutions fell short.
​
At first it seemed like I was being shown all the ways that society could fail me —in reality, I was being challenged to find a new path.
​
What I found were ancient consciousness practices that humans have relied on for millennia —practices that have been largely forgotten by modern society. I found that working directly with consciousness and qi (energy)—rather than just managing thoughts and behaviors through force—can create transformations that once seemed impossible, bringing profound healing to career blockages, health challenges, relationships, and personal resilience.
​
I am also a serious scientist with an MS in Engineering from Stanford University and bring a unique perspective to consciousness work that honors both scientific inquiry and esoteric wisdom. True science, at its core, thrives in the "I don't know" state—where curiosity leads and each answer creates a new realm of potential. This mindset allows us to approach consciousness practices with both analytical precision and open-hearted exploration. Rather than viewing science and ancient wisdom as opposing forces, they can be played with as complementary pathways to understanding our vast human potential.
​
What makes the practices I teach transformative is their ability to bypass conventional limitations. By accessing your true nature as clear observer awareness, you unlock solutions that already exist within you, addressing root causes rather than symptoms.
Together, we can discover that life's challenges aren't obstacles to growth but gateways—when approached with clear consciousness, every limitation becomes an invitation to discover potentials you never knew existed.
​
I hope you'll join me to discover for yourself how fun it is to heal!
What is Zhineng Qigong?
Zhineng directly translates to "Wisdom Abilities" and Qigong (or Chi Gong) refers to energy work or practice. Everything is made of qi, from our physical world and bodies, to the less physical aspects of existence such as our thoughts, emotions, and human concepts/stories. Modern science has been slow to recognize the existence of qi because it is difficult to measure with non-living sensory devices; however, recently they have been catching on. Every indigenous culture on earth once relied on techniques for witnessing and using invisible energy fields for healing and optimizing the enjoyment of life. These practices were devalued during in the Age of Reason, but are naturally resurfacing as our collective faces a host of seemingly insurmountable challenges. A "Wisdom Abilities" energy practice sure comes in handy when looking at things that can't be addressed with purely linear thinking, like climate change.
​
Practicing the traditions of Zhineng Qigong has reconnected me back to the integral web of life. Existence in modern society did not make sense to me at times. I tried to follow the rules, pursue laudable goals, and do all the things that we're told will "make us" healthy and happy. That experiment failed gloriously for me. When I began to study the true laws of the universe in my Zhineng Qigong practice, the pieces of the puzzle of my life started falling into place. I could see glimpses behind the veil and discover what was true for me. My anxiety and emotions began to stabilize and I developed the capacity to form more meaningful connections with nature, other humans, and all of existence...even the aspects that I used to "hate". My voice opened up, I discovered my inner poet, healed my marriage, and found both spaciousness and success in my profession. The practice taught me how to tap into my body to find everything I needed to know; the best healing perspectives to structure my life around, and a path to the unconditional joy of who I truly am.
Consciousness practices like Zhineng Qigong aren't about following a guru, they're about learning how to take back your power by coming home to your own inner master.

Zhineng Qigong was developed by Dr. Pang Ming in China in the late 20th century. It is based on the secret practices of over 20 ancient lineages but organized to be optimally received by modern society. It is quite different than other qigong methods available in the western world in that it focuses on cultivating "pure consciousness" or mingjue. The physical movements in Zhineng Qigong are relatively simplistic. The practice is not performed as a lone individual but as a collective: together, as a forest with linked roots and branches, we are stronger and more resilient.

I am a certified Mingjue Gongfu Healer and Mingjue Gongfu Teacher by Qigong Master Wei Qi Feng and have completed specialty coursework on "Healing Cancer with Pure Consciousness", "Healing Methods for the Heart, Circulatory System, and Blood Pressure", "Healing the Brain and Nervous System", and "Shen Zhen Acupuncture (needless acupuncture)".
What is Grounded Consciousness Coaching?
​
Grounded Consciousness Coaching (GCC) draws inspiration from the ancient healing communication practice of Hua Liao ("talking therapy") that was utilized at Dr. Pang Ming's Huaxia Center in China. While traditional coaching and therapy often focus on analyzing problems through logical thinking, GCC operates at the deeper level of consciousness itself. This approach recognizes that words carry information qi that can directly influence energy patterns when delivered from a state of clear consciousness (mingjue).
​
The methodology involves establishing a unified field where both practitioner and client can access observer consciousness rather than being identified with thought patterns. From this expanded awareness, limiting beliefs and energetic blockages become more visible and malleable. The practitioner, having developed stable mingjue through dedicated practice, serves as a resonant field that naturally entrains the client's consciousness toward greater coherence and clarity. Specific language patterns, carefully selected and potentiated with clear consciousness, act as carriers for healing information that helps reorganize disordered energy patterns.
​
What distinguishes GCC from conventional approaches is its recognition that true transformation doesn't require extensive analysis of the past or complex intervention strategies. Instead, by shifting the level at which we operate—from thought identification to observer consciousness—we access the intelligence of the unified field where solutions naturally emerge. Sessions typically begin with establishing the consciousness field, then move to identifying where in the body relevant patterns are held. Working directly with these somatic anchors rather than mental storylines allows for more direct access to transformation.
​
The practice progresses through natural developmental phases, from establishing the basic distinction between observer and thoughts, to accessing deeper layers of patterning, and finally to integration and embodiment in daily life. Throughout this journey, the practitioner functions less as an expert providing solutions and more as a clear mirror helping to illuminate what's already present. This honors the understanding that all healing information already exists within the client's own consciousness field, and GCC simply removes the obstacles preventing its natural expression.
