Questions and answers

I am having difficulty in experiencing the Qi flow in the legs. Is there any advice you can give?

There are a few ways in which you can tackle this. Here are two of them. The first is to break this Qigong down into its components and pick the one (s) that involve the leg meridians that you are having the issue with. You then keep repeating this section until the awareness builds.

The second method is to do a different Qigong that works with the leg meridians and we will work with some examples here: –

• Spleen Qigong, from the Five Taoist Yin.
• The Commencement, from the Shibashi, working with Kidney meridian and Bladder meridian.
• Painting Rainbows, from the Shibashi, working with Liver meridian and Gallbladder meridian.

What is the difference between the two Yin / Yang moves in this Qigong?

• Passive Qigong, experiencing the qualities of the Dantien.
• The second Yin / Yang, working with that experience of the Dantien.
• The first Yin / Yang, bringing balance and centring the physical on the energetic.
