[OT] Somewhat off topic, but maybe not so much.

I have been hearing about QiGong the chinese art of healing and the
Gong (or Kung) I belive is the same word as used in Kung Fu. The Qi
is pronounced "Chi" and is the life force referred to in Tai Chi, the
exercise movement.
KiGong is the manipulation of the life force and it really does
improve health. Clinical trials have proven it.
It's really interesting and in the past few years I have been able to
feel the force there. It feels like a warm fuzzy marshmallow but you
can move through it and it sends chills along my arms and down my
spine. It seems to revitalize my energy and has kept me from falling
asleep on long car trips, like to Mississauga.
Has anyone else here experienced this?

When I visited China with Elderhostel, we stayed at a healing college
for about 2 wks,
Classes included TaiChi, QiGong medicine, art and language.The Art
Master would speak of experiencing the Chi as a guidance to painting..
QiGong included a similar exercise to TaiChi, but color and direction
were important elements.
After one session, massage appointments were offered.
While I was fully dressed and sitting, 2 fellows manipulated neck,
shoulders and arms.
I remember especially the shaking-vibrating- of my extended arms.
Next morning and all day, totally unexpectedly, there it was...that warm
glow a couple of inches below my belly-button, as had been described as
the place of the Chi. I can feel the spot as I write of it about 15
years later. I never learned about moving it.

I've never been to China, but I first encountered Chi when I was
having accupuncture and I felt it moving then. Since then I've
encountered a different "flavour" of chi in the air around me. I can
gather it with my hands and arms and it send chills over my head and
torso.
I saw a video about it last night called simply "QiGong" Which I
think was produced by some organization called "Livingarts."
They covered the artist Qigong master, but I think that is only one
aspect of the chi. Other masters use other techniques as suits them.
The chi can be channelled in many ways, apparently. It's quite
interesting. Of course it'll be a while before our medicare covers
it.(;-))

I'd have to agree with you there. However Obama is possibly,... no
you're right, it'll be a looong time.
On the plus side, QiGong is something an individual can do for
themselves. Chi is all around us and we have just to tap into it and
experience it's benefits.

Well, that's what it's for. I mean not just that, but it's supposed
to cure things like pain and improve flexability, among other things.
Try going to:
http://www.worldclassima.com/qigong.htm
or doing a search on the net. I would advise not spending large
amounts of money on this, but get a feel for it first. It's
something that you can do for yourself and it won't cost anything.
