Guest guest Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 Hi everyone, If you are not sure that the body has an energetic component, let me share this little experiment with you... Take your hands and vigourously rub them together for at least 5-10 seconds... Stop and then separate your hands out by about 2 feet. Slowly, and in a wave like motion- meaning ebbing and flowing- move your hands back and forth, always moving them just a little closer together... Pay attention to what you feel between your hands, and of course how your hands feel as well... This can be quite an illuminating exercise... I have done this in front of many groups and about 90 percent of the people will suddenly get this really excited, " Oh my Gosh!! " look on their face. When they do, I know they got it. People then often want to know if they felt the right thing. If any one here has questions after this exercise, I am glad to answer them, but just to let you know, there is no right or wrong... Be Well, Misty L. Trepke http://www..com Qi and Qi Therapies Qi (chi [chee], ki): Broadly, a vital force that underlies functioning of body, mind, and spirit. The concept of this multifaceted " cosmic life force " is fundamental to various practices from China , including architecture, art, " health " practices, magic, and martial arts. According to Qigong theory, Qi encompasses air and internal Qi, or true Qi, which includes essential Qi ( " vital energy " ).

It involves contemplation, visualization (imagery), assumption of postures, and stylized breathing and body movements. " Gong " is a Mandarin word that pertains to skill. Its Cantonese equivalent is " kung, " as in " kung fu. " The word " qigong " literally means " breathing exercise, " " to work the vital force, " " practicing with the breath, " and " working with the energy of life. " Interpretations of the word include " energy skill " and " energy mastering exercise. " These practices are a vast group of systems and methods of ancient Chinese and twentieth-century origin that encompasses Qigong therapy. Qigong Meridian Therapy is part of TCM that involves manipulating meridians ( " energy pathways " ) Qigong therapy (buqi, buqi therapy, external qigong, external Qigong healing, external Qi healing, medical Qigong, Qi An Mo, Qigong healing, Qi healing, Qi Massage, wai Qi liao fa, Wai Qi Zhi Liao) are medical application of short-distance psychokinesis. Qigong therapy is comparable to Non-Contact Therapeutic Touch. At most, it includes light touching. Its theory includes " healing Qi " and " diseased Qi. " ( " Buqi " means " spreading the Qi. " " Wei Qi " means " external Qi " and refers to a protective " shield " of qi at the surface of the body. " Wei Qi liao fa " means " curing with external Qi. " This therapy works with " acupointing, " " chiropractics, " massage, physical therapy, Tuina, and " qi transmission. " QiGong Yoga Body Therapy is a combination of Qigong, " restorative " yoga postures, Reiki, meditation, and guided visualization. Quan Chi Chi Gong is a form of Qigong therapy. Quan Chi Chi Gong involves a variant of psychokinesis or telekinesis. Supposedly, practitioners transfer chi (Qi, " energy " ) stored in their " energy body " into the patient. The method is instrumental in accelerating healing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
