Waking the Qi by John Munro Pdf

Qi is the energy of life. Where qi flows there is health, vitality, strength, and wellbeing. Unfortunately, for various reasons this 'qi' can become inactive in people, like going to sleep. This can be due to stress, injury, ill health, long periods of inactivity and other factors. When this happens, the energy withdraws to the centre and it is much harder to identify and feel its flow. Weakness, sickness, injury, general illness, and low energy results. Waking the Qi presents a series of twenty qigong exercises designed to activate your life force energy and get it flowing through your body again. When the qi is flowing, not only are you healthier, stronger and feel better, but you can also actually feel your living energy more easily. This makes it easier for you to get the benefits fromTaiji (Tai Chi), Qigong, and other energy arts you may practice, as when you can actually feel your energy you are more able to assess whether your practice is achieving its intended results, and make changes as necessary. In Waking the Qi, the role of the Mind, Body, and Breath is explained for each exercise so that students can gain a practical understanding of what they are doing and how it works. The practices in this book are particularly useful for anyone who has become weak and debilitated from prolonged illness, has a stiff or sore back and neck, weak legs, suffers from stress and anxiety, wants a stronger immune system, better digestion, improved circulation, easier breathing, or simply to have more energy. Whatever your circumstances waking your qi is sure to enhance your health, vitality, and awarenes of your own energy.

Between Heaven and Earth by John Munro Pdf

The movements in the Between Heaven and Earth practices are simple but energetically very powerful. By stimulating the flow of energy within the eight extraordinary meridians in the body. They set up a very strong and stable energy pattern within us, similar to the pattern found within galaxies, atoms and gyroscopes. This strong stable energy pattern makes us very resilient both physically and mentally, and able to cope with whatever life throws at us without being knocked out of balance. Activation of the extraordinary meridians also allows us to connect to the power of Heaven and the power of Earth, allowing this energy to flow through us, refreshing and cleansing our energy field. When our energy field is full and strong it forms a protective buffer, and developing skill with this allows us to interact more harmoniously with other people and the world around us. This book contains complete instructions and illustrations of how to practice the Between Heaven and Earth exercises, along with theory and practical explanations so that you can understand exactly what you are trying to achieve with each exercise and how each exercise works. The Between Heaven and Earth qigong practices are an excellent way to boost your energy and build health, strength, and resilience while gaining a practical understanding of the often misunderstood extraordinary meridians.

Daoist Nei Gong for Women by Roni Edlund,Damo Mitchell Pdf

Although the energetic anatomy of men and women is different, the ancient teachings of Nu Dan, a separate branch of internal alchemy for women, have been lost in the literature over the centuries and only survive through practice in the lineages. This book takes a detailed look at female energetic anatomy, exploring how it is different from its male counterpart, and explains and describes the specific practices which support the unique strengths and challenges that the female energy system presents. Previously wrapped in secrecy, the teachings in this book include qigong exercises that activate the energy of the uterus and an explanation of how menstruation and a connection to the cycles of the moon can be converted into a tool for Nei Gong development.
