This is Tau Wellness
At Tau, we emphasize a unique approach to lifelong learning that values the learning experience over the speed of completion. Our 3-year, 6-term, part-time program integrates Therapeutic Touch, Therapeutic Arts, and Therapeutic Trance, designed to fit the busy lives of working adults and students. Training is offered during Winter and Summer terms, with breaks in April and October. The program is self-paced and self-directed, combining online resources and hands-on training at the Tau Wellness Centre. Students are registered with the International Association of Medical and Dental Hypnotherapists (IMDHA) after their first term, and upon completion, they are certified as Community Wellness Workers and eligible to register as Certified Hypnotherapists.
The Tau Centre for Therapeutic Trance, certified by IMDHA, is part of the Our_Community Health Initiative Cooperative (OCHI), a not-for-profit organization. Our program caters to healthcare professionals seeking to enhance their therapeutic touch skills, individuals over 60 looking to engage in community healing, and those wishing to connect with their ancestral heritage through energy healing practices. Tau Traditional Reiki is taught as both an art and a skill, emphasizing continuous practice and collaboration among practitioners.

We thank our funders and supporters.
As Tau, we are guests everywhere, forever and thank our many hosts.
We have members across the West, and we acknowledge the multiple First Nations traditional territories where we live, work and play. Our organization is centered in the islands of the mid-Salish Sea. As such we specifically acknowledge our hosts of several nations, collectively the SENĆOŦEN speaking peoples, also referred to as the Malchosen, the Lekwungen, the Semiahmoo, and the T’Sou-ke.
We commit to a decade of decolonization (2034) to address the generations of harm caused as a first step toward reconciliation. We look to share a way forward based on mutual respect and marked by stories of our communities learning together in this time of Truth and Reconciliation.
