Guest guest Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Hi Deb, Qigong grows outwards. That is, when you first practice, its in the breath. Then, you start to feel it in the body. The, you might be able to move it by doing breathing and having positive intention. The Taoists are big believers in health and long life, so they produced many exercises for exactly this. The, you may feel that you are gaining energy from nature, and you start to feel connected, perhaps to a tree, or a special place. And then, again, it gets bigger, wider and you feel the connection to earth, moon, stars - then - everything. Unity. If you focus in your chi ball - and see yourself as the centre piece between the earth below and the stars above - and allow the energy to flow through you - yes - this is the time for your deepest love to flow through you and it spreads like rays in all directions. Yes - you can turn your hands outwards. I'll send a couple of photos to show you a few stances you can hold. Its static qigong. When I first practised and learnt, I did so in a group. My experience was different from others, and I had private lessons. My teacher had me teaching within a year. I learnt most teaching and interacting with others. Now I only have two private students and no group. But perhaps its time to join a group again. Thanks Deb for your interest. 2009/7/13 flowerpowers7777 <flowerpowers7777 > > > Dear Tiffany, > > Thank you so much for posting this.
