  1. Zhan Zhuang and Purple Feet

    It seems you followed a photo from Damo’s style. I do not follow this system framework, but I can say that you may need to check your knees and where you’re placing your weight. The image is not adequate to fully assess also as it’s not known what your intent is or what your spine, legs, lower back, and knees feel as you do it and for how long. I unfortunately can’t comment further as it is not my system and I am not your teacher.
  2. Zhan Zhuang and Purple Feet

    Enough to need medical emergency care or find out that even the doctors can’t detect what’s wrong even if he still feels pain.
  3. Zhan Zhuang and Purple Feet

    I don't know how you stand, but a lot of people who are self-taught do things that involve claiming what they are doing is Zhan Zhuang when it's clearly not upon inspection, and doing it completely wrong while causing more damage to their bodies while practicing.
  4. Oh look, I got covid

    Yeah, I got it a few days ago. I'm so happy anti-vaxx or Plandemic talk is no longer public. Stay safe and healthy, people. Delta is very real.
  5. Searching for qigong teacher

    Flying Phoenix qigong.

  7. Need Help For Severe Problem

    No one who dates people for status, dick size, income, or washboard abs and height is worth dating. Your reasoning sounds like an incel in the making, and this is dangerous. Don’t fall into the adolescent trap of reddit or relationships. Work on yourself to the point you’d date yourself if you could. Remember the line of Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs and feel this way about yourself before you even consider dating others: If you look for a woman to validate you, you won’t grow as a person and you’ll drag her down instead of her pulling you up. She also will likely be the kind expecting to be pulled up too and it will be a cycle of abuse. Go live your life and make it something you enjoy. If you can’t, go seek professional help.
  8. Power centers/vortices

    Very. I have practices for spirits, be they nature or the dead, so I have felt how the energy affected me before learning them and afterwards.
  9. Power centers/vortices

    Most notable spots: Preah Vahear and the Killing Caves in Cambodia, Elbrus in Russia, Sagada in the Philippines, all of Timor-Leste, all of central Java and Flores Indonesia, and a spot in northern Sri Lanka by the Farah ship. Let us not leave out ‘Murrica: Much of Nevada’s desert all the way to the border of California, and around Rhode Island by H.P. Lovecraft’s grave, and around Northampton, MA.
  10. Power centers/vortices

    Felt it when living in Tanzania on the peaks and in the desert, and various other countries I worked and lived in where the common denominators are 1) nature 2) religious structures 3) mass graves and warzones

    Will include you in my appeals for your well-being.

  13. Horse Stance and qi deviations

    Hi. I reported her post that was targeting me in case you didn’t see (I think you did). Can you tell me what’s wrong with the post I made so that I may proceed to edit appropriately then?
  14. Horse Stance and qi deviations

    I did just fine. No long Covid-19 and have methods that made it heal better.
  15. Horse Stance and qi deviations

    Don’t try to teach yourself Zhan Zhuang in any manner without someone to guide you, even on video calls at least. You will end up with knee and spinal injuries even if what you think you are doing is correct. I spend most of my time correcting people who taught themselves even from Lam Kam Chuen and they ended up revealing that they had irritated existing injuries. And no—I am not taking students in at the moment because my Internet connection is bad in my current location and I do charge a premium for tuition to filter out who is serious and who is a hobbyist.
  16. Gaming Corner- What's your game

    No…
  17. I recall @Cleansox mentioned lots of his old posts disappeared and the same happened to me. I hid my posts from being seen publicly, and now while looking for some, they’re missing altogether, including one section of several for my Flying Phoenix journal. Almost the entire PPJ was hidden because I had a stalker and doxxer, and while I lament the loss of some post history, I am mostly okay. I just think there may be a system hiccup causing some posts to disappear in people’s PPJs.
  18. Another case of sections of PPJ missing

    Found it. It wasn't there when I looked yesterday in my own PPJ, but it's there today. I'm wondering why it wasn't there, and the other parts that were missing were restored too. Walden at the time only had one thread, and then all the missing threads are there now, but all hidden. Thanks!
  19. Colloidal Silver: The Alchemist's Quicksiler

    Yeah, I saw this a few years ago when someone recommended colloidal silver and then I concluded that I need to stop it before I become a Smurf. Miracle cures are 99% hype.

  21. Flying Phoenix Chi Kung

    PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT The following individual in this Youtube video is demonstrating gross misunderstanding of the Flying Phoenix capstone Long Form Meditation--start to finish--and thus of Flying Phoenix Qigong as a system, according to an aghast Sifu Terry Dunn. Sifu Terry advises FPCK subscribers to avoid this video and not to learn anything from it except what NOT to do with one's bad habits carried over from external styles. This is the comment I have posted that was done while meeting and conferring with Sifu Terry:
  22. Zhan Zhuang - Grounded or Ungrounded

    You got warned not to insult and here you are doing it again…
  23. Zhan Zhuang - Grounded or Ungrounded

    How about asking others to clarify what they mean instead of assuming and going into passive-aggression instead? What I was saying is that someone opened a qigong clinic and promoted spontaneous practice without recognizing that it can be dangerous without guidance. What YOU are saying is that I'm attacking you--I left you way back on the other side of the river because of your insults.
