Ashida Kim. Is this the same person who wrote ninja books published by Citadel Press? In the world today, everything is up for exploitation and profit; very unfortunate. With the current monetary marketing system in place, things will unlikely become stable again.

Wow. It is plain naive to believe that a piece of software can read energy. If a person walks through the forest and sees a bear trap, does that person willingly step into it? Apparently so. Thank-you for sharing this information, it was very amusing, but the experiment will not happen here.

The times listed must be performed a little quicker that what is shown on the DVD's. Including breath sequence, the MSW meditations normally take thirty to forty minutes for me to complete the seven repetitions. Are you finding positive results at these speeds?

Thank-you.

This is most wonderfully written. Those who practise "New Age" material are building a house on a foundation of sand. "If one desires to become someone, they will miss out on the opportunity of becoming no one." Thank-you so much for posting this.

When applying this meditation, it normally takes me forty minutes to complete from breathing sequence to the finishing of thirty repetitions. Is it true to assume that these meditations are to be completed as slow as possible, even slower than seen on the video? My general inward feeling is to perform them so very slow, almost to the point of being visually difficult to see any movement.

I would like to share a typical routine which I practise daily. In the fall, this routine will incorporate the Tai Chi Ruler, which will be a wonderful addition.

Hi Ben, I too have back issues and empathise with your struggle. Practising the third meditation on disc two (50-10-50) of the FP series (seated meditations) and also applying the earth posture and monk begs for rice postures to your routine my help as well. These steps have greatly helped my back issues while still maintaining the half-lotus posture. Since these are postures that hold the hands low, the pressure is off of the upper/middle back and can allow a person to keep focus on correct back form and being centered. Best regards, Robb

Since my account gets randomly closed, trying once again seems to be the best option. "Hello everyone. Having practiced Tai Chi Chuan Yang forms and Flying Phoenix Chi Kung for several years, I would like to join this form and share experiences with other members. I am looking forward to building relationships with others of like interests."
