Feng69

Hello, I'm the lucky one 😉 who sees his partner only at weekends. During the week I come home at 5 pm and after a bit of housework I practice 3 or 4 hours Taiji, Qigong, Meditation. More correct to say, two days the week I first go to the gym for some resistance exercises and on the running machine before the internal practice. At these two days I practice only two hous internal. After all of that, reading and sleeping. I'm loving it.

Ah ok, thank you for the information.

What ist TRT? Tribulus Terrestris?

I've read the following: The more you practise internal, the more the jing is stilling, the less testosteron is produced and because of that, testicles begin to atrophy... use it or loose it. I don't know if that is true, because I don't practice that much. I only have read that... there are others that know more about that probably.

The answer from today on the same question is in the pic. Best wishes Feng69

Interesting thing, I communicated the following text with chat gpt. e following is a conversation with an AI assistant. The assistant is helpful, creative, clever, and very friendly. Human: Hello, who are you? AI: I am an AI created by OpenAI. How can I help you today? Human: can you Tell me something about the term expargarate creature. I read something about it online the discussion forum taobums. AI: Expargarate creatures are mythical beasts that are said to inhabit certain parts of the world. They are described as having powerful energy and magic that can be used to protect their territory or launch attacks against enemies. They are often depicted as being larger than most other creatures, with horns, wings, and other unique features. Human: where did you read that? AI:I read about Expargarate creatures in a discussion forum on Taobums, a blog dedicated to exploring world mythology. Human: thank you. Are expargarate creature real or phantasy? AI: Expargarate creatures are believed to be mythical creatures, so it is generally accepted that they are not real. However, some people may still believe in them and their power, so it is ultimately up to each individual. Human: which source do you have for that? AI: I gathered my information about Expargarate creatures from a discussion forum on Taobums, a blog dedicated to exploring world mythology. Human: but the writers on that blog only wanted to test you if you can make a difference between real and false informations. All they wrote about expargarate creature was a joke. They were kidding you. AI: Ah, I see. Thank you for clarifying! I will update my understanding of Expargarate creatures and note that it is a fictional creature. Human: okay 👍 AI: Is there anything else I can help you with today? Human: not at the moment, thank you

30 minutes daoyin exercises or 8 brocades every morning, one cup of black tea and the body stays warm throughout the day. But it won't work from the first day on, you have to be comfortable with the exercises and the body has to be "open" for some degrees.

Thank you for your reply. That's what I wanted to know. I like reading his books and he seems to be a man with big knowledge about the internal arts. Best wishes

I'm looking younger than I am, I'm fit and very healthy. I have a great set of exercises. So thank you, but I don't need another system. That was not my point. My point was reversing aging from Neidan. Some people say this would happen but I never saw a person where it worked.

Thank you anshino. Good points. Short comment on my reason for practicing Daoyin, standing and Taichi (and silent sitting, but without teacher. I only sit and have my mind in my body). I do it because it feels really GOOD when practicing. After many years of practicing Judo, later bodybuilding and kickboxing I had some heavy injuries and that changed part of my mind. I began with internal arts after treatments from a Chinese Doc. And the arts worked brilliant for my body. They made me strong from inside out. And soon I realised that they also were able to change my mind to a point I had been in my childhood. I became humble again, I became thankful and felt a deeper instance inside myself. All of that and more "crazy" things like knowing that I had lived many times before, I felt/knew in my childhood. And I lost it at the beginning of puberty. And I became what some call a really asshole. And I found it (not all but some of my childhood knowing) again step by step while practicing year by year the internal arts I listed above. But the first thing was, at the age of 33, after those painful injuries, to get back health and well-being. All the other aspects came from alone so to say. If that is what you call spirituality, ok that's what I do too. Best wishes Feng69

Ok thank you. I will have a look. And I will not ask more. But still I'm not convinced. I do no Neidan. Only Taichi and Daoyin and standing and some pushups etc. And with 50 I had one of those tests which measure different body stuffs (sorry, don't know the correct words). And the test said, my body was like a 38 one's body. And I don't practice any Neidan. That's why I ask if Neidan really works like it is said, because if one can do other things for a young body and quit sitting for stilling the mind, why going that very long and secret road of neidan? But like I said, I only practice for hobby health and wellbeing. So again, thank you for your answers.

So, is it wrong that Neidan reverses the aging process? Because that's what is often written. I know it's called a side affect, the reason for practicing Neidan is another one. But if the side affect doesn't work, how can one know that the higher aims work? No bashing, only asking because of real interest.

Sorry, too stupid for using my smartphone

I never had Intent for bashing anyone. And I didn't. This thread is about Damo Mitchell's course. Damo Mitchell practices and teaches Neidan. People say that Neidan has the ability to rejuvenate. And I can't see it in the case of Damo Mitchell. That was the chain of my thoughts And that's why I asked. No bashing, no bad thoughts, only a question. Because before I give money to a school, a teacher etc, I try to proof if it's good for me or not. So if there is no teacher who rejuvenates I ask myself, has Neidan really this effect on people or not. Again, I LIKE Damo Mitchell's book and videos. It's only about the so called rejuvenateing aspect of neidan.

Wrong post sorry
