Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Hi Rusty, I remember your post from BEFORE I went on my holiday trips... Sorry for not answering it earlier, but it did slip out of my consciousness for a week or two... ....so, in answer to your question, THAT FLOW is also the penetrating flow (from the Radiant Circuits)... ....and it does NOT stop at the chest, then flare out... ....but it does flare out, because it is a Radiant Circuits, and it also goes upwards to the corners of the mouth... ....which is the reason that a " smile done with the Radiant Circuits 'turn on' the one that you smile at " ... ....and then it goes up, like I said before to Lori, " into the nose " ... ....which is the reason for the nostrial breathing that is done by the Hindu's for their psychic enhancement skills. A very short post on a very important Psychic Skills topic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(snip) Sincerely, Doc > Thanks, > Lori ----Original message---- Hi Doc, I just starting to read a couple of days ago a book I've had for awhile, but never read, " Science of Breath " by Yogi Ramacharaka . Would the nostril breathing you mention be the " yogi complete breathing " that's described in the book? I presume the significance of nostril breathing has to do with the ida and pingala that wind up the spine tothe nostrils. But that book never specifices if you keep the tongue in contact with the roof of the mouth closest to where ida and pingala both end (at the nostrils) though. What's interesting is that the breathing method I use in medical Qigong is also nostril beathing. And they are pretty adamant about keeping the tongue in constant contact with the roof of the mouth while always breathing with the mouth closed. The inhale and exhale are done a different way. Maybe tongue position doesn't matter to the Indians, because when the mouth is closed the tongue naturally seems to touch the roof anyway. Which reminds me I have a heck of a time keeping the tongue away from my roof when I go to level as you suggested at the last workshop. It naturally wants to drift back to the roof all the time.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Have you ever just touched your tongue to the back of your 2 front teeth. Great for relaxing.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Yes I just did. For me it seems to work better with the lower front teeth, seems to give the tongue a place to rest...and even more relaxing with the jaw dropped slightly I just noticed. Will see how it works at level. Thanks Lori , " Daze' Lisenkoff, Ph.D., C.Ht. " <daze@h...> wrote: > > Have you ever just touched your tongue to the back of your 2 front teeth. > Great for relaxing.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 > For me it seems to work better with the lower front teeth, seems to give the tongue a place to rest. - Lori. The spot that we use in taiji is ALWAYS the point where the two front teeth meet the gum at the roof of the mouth thus connecting the central and governing meridians. This is also a place which stimulates saliva. Swallowing saliva gives a chi boost. In China, if you see someone spitting it's definitely NOT Chi Gong as spitting is dicarding chi. rusty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Hi Rusty, I think I need to clarify. I wasn't using that tongue position (touching the lower front teeth with my jaw slightly dropped) for Qigong at all, I was using it for going to level (ala Silva Mind Control/RVRI). While at level the objective was to keep the tongue AWAY from the roof to relax and/or to drop the jaw to accomplish the same. I was simply describing a way I found to comfortably rest my tongue AWAY from my roof because it kept wanting to naturally drift back up to my roof where I didn't want it to be. And when I do Qigong I ALWAYS touch the roof. I mention it in the earlier post(see HE # 4634). A lot of it got edited by the time it got to this post. We were discussing a few different things in the original post. Thanks, sorry for if I confused you....
