  2. if the economy doesn't open it will be much worse for everybody
  3. How to find the lower dan tian ?

    so you think it exists because some people say it? same with me until not long ago. But it is not a good argument. Some people and teachers also say that God exists. So do you think it exists just because some people say it?
  4. How to find the lower dan tian ?

    you can insult me as much as you want, but sometimes I wonder if this doesn't exist and it is all imagination
  5. why do i always believe anons???
  6. Several doctors say they have received instructions from government to write death certificates indicating covid 19 as the cause of the death: https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1247680994821509121
  7. I was wrong then. I just did it one month or one month and a half, while i did fragrant, which is much better, for 7 months.
  8. I really think it is time to say the truth about this flying phoenix qigong thing. How many people has paid for this, wasting money and time ?
  9. On walking

    100 km walking? not bad!
  10. people will get very damaged with all this joke. Lost jobs, lost rights, lost liberties, etc.
  11. Zhan Zhuang Standing information

    good thread. I want to ask you something @Gerard. After more than 10 years, how is your zhan zhuang now? are you able to do it a long time in a relaxed way, and getting all the benefits? For me it is a very difficult exercise. But again, i put the question of this other thread: is it better than walking? is it better than other kinds of exercises?
  12. https://medium.com/@ra.hobday/coronavirus-and-the-sun-a-lesson-from-the-1918-influenza-pandemic-509151dc8065 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4504358/ Abstract The H1N1 “Spanish flu” outbreak of 1918–1919 was the most devastating pandemic on record, killing between 50 million and 100 million people. Should the next influenza pandemic prove equally virulent, there could be more than 300 million deaths globally. The conventional view is that little could have been done to prevent the H1N1 virus from spreading or to treat those infected; however, there is evidence to the contrary. Records from an “open-air” hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, suggest that some patients and staff were spared the worst of the outbreak. A combination of fresh air, sunlight, scrupulous standards of hygiene, and reusable face masks appears to have substantially reduced deaths among some patients and infections among medical staff. We argue that temporary hospitals should be a priority in emergency planning. Equally, other measures adopted during the 1918 pandemic merit more attention than they currently receive.
  13. Here you have a link: https://medium.com/@ra.hobday/coronavirus-and-the-sun-a-lesson-from-the-1918-influenza-pandemic-509151dc8065
  14. I don't remember where I read this, it was a newspaper and there were images of people lying outside hospitales taking the sun. Let's see if i can get the link
  15. in 1918 the spanish flu was treated with patients being exposed to the sun, but as i said before i am not an expert
  16. I have no idea about medicine, that is the truth, but some say that the sun light can be good for healing the virus
  17. Everyone post some favorite quotes!

    This one is from Epictetus, one of the best greek philosophers of history: "There are things which are within our power, and there are things which are beyond our power. Within our power are opinion, aim, desire, aversion, and, in one word, whatever affairs are our own. Beyond our power are body, property, reputation, office, and, in one word, whatever are not properly our own affairs. Now the things within our power are by nature free, unrestricted, unhindered; but those beyond our power are weak, dependent, restricted, alien. Remember, then, that if you attribute freedom to things by nature dependent and take what belongs to others for your own, you will be hindered, you will lament, you will be disturbed, you will find fault both with gods and men. But if you take for your own only that which is your own and view what belongs to others just as it really is, then no one will ever compel you, no one will restrict you; you will find fault with no one, you will accuse no one, you will do nothing against your will; no one will hurt you, you will not have an enemy, nor will you suffer any harm. Aiming, therefore, at such great things, remember that you must not allow yourself any inclination, however slight, toward the attainment of the others; but that you must entirely quit some of them, and for the present postpone the rest. But if you would have these, and possess power and wealth likewise, you may miss the latter in seeking the former; and you will certainly fail of that by which alone happiness and freedom are procured. Seek at once, therefore, to be able to say to every unpleasing semblance, “You are but a semblance and by no means the real thing.” And then examine it by those rules which you have; and first and chiefly by this: whether it concerns the things which are within our own power or those which are not; and if it concerns anything beyond our power, be prepared to say that it is nothing to you"
  18. this is very disturbing and sad: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8262351/Nurse-New-York-claims-city-killing-COVID-19-patients-putting-ventilators.html

  20. On walking

    Yes, stretches are necessary always
  21. Quarantines are useless except for making u sick due to lack of exercise and sun
  22. I have been reading this post, i will read it more later. It is very sad the police abuse happening in some countries. It is like we hare heading to a new dictatorship without liberty nor rights, like in 1984. That is why i have had anger issues these last days, i am working on this now
  23. in my case i am at level 1 of your classification: opening the tissues and channels what do you think is the best way to open them up? as of lately i am doing a lot of walking, as i think it is one of the best exercises for my body. some time ago i did a lot of qigong, particularly fragrant qigong
  24. So if tests are not accurate i do wonder how they can make stats of infected people and how they know that the real cause of death of those who die is this virus
  25. On walking

    walking is good for strenghtening the legs and the back, but at the same time it is good for the cardiovascular system
