Dear All, I'm new, in the past, I did Tai Chi Chuan (2 types), Chi Kung (1 before and with one I continue), the Inner Smile and the Healing Sounds, Hatha Yoga and used the Ji King intensely for 2 years. I'm interested in Tao Yin - if you know Tao Yin asanas/exercises that strengthen the inner thighs, could you, please, be so kind as to let me know which ones do so? (And how should I do mula bandha at the same time- when to do the lock, when to release ?) Alternatively, if you have a link to a video, page etc. with this info, that would be great, too! Thank you very much.

Thank you, Blue Eyed Snake! I must pay attention to what I wear indeed. Thanks for the invitation, Nuwa seems to be a good place! * IdQuest, yes, it could be, but strangely it has always been antibiotics with which I could get rid of my symptoms, so I tend to think it's infections in my case, but thanks! * Uroboros, I didn't think of a side effect! Thank you. As to how I know about the leak, it was an expert of the human energy-system who told me so after I mentioned my symptoms to her... I'll experiment with stances (-:

You are right, VonKrankenhaus, I'm having them anyway, either due to cold air, or a current of air. (I just noticed that the egg aggravates the symptoms.) Thanks for your advice!

Thank you, Uroboros, yes, the instructor talked about "Chia's" Tao Yin probably, I'll look into his You Tube videos again. I need to strengthen my entire region down there, not just the thighs, to prevent any energy leakage at the area. I started the Jade Egg pactice several times, but I always had to stop because of yet another urinary infection - I did boil the egg before-after, but I've been prone to such infections, so I must find a method that doesn't need an egg. Thanks for the recommendation as well. * Thank you, VonKrankenhaus!

Uroboros, I see you have your forum registration birthday today, 12 years, wow, happy birthday :-) I didn't find anything on Tao Yin branches; it was a HT/HL instructor who told me that with Tao Yin, one can strengthen the thighs efficiently. Do you know several? * Thank you, IdQuest and Soaring Crane!

I'd like to strengthen my 1st chakra to get rid of some related issues, and help my practice. Thanks, RainbowVein! Gerard, that's great, thank you!!

Hello All, My modest background - I did 2 types of Tai Chi Chuan, 2 kinds of Chi Kung (one is part of my practice), Hatha Yoga, the Inner Smile, the Healing Sounds, used the Ji King daily for about 2 years. I find this forum impressive, thank you for creating it!
