My 2 cents. The depth of your stance is a function of stretched muscle. You may sit deep with nothing internal. Internal can happen at any depth. Allowing the qua to sink - spine elongate.

Karen what have you specifically healed or been given relief with oil pulling Sme question to all Thanks

What do you sifu

Unconditional love is what seperates the haves from the have nots. It comes of it's own accord through witnessing and compassion. A simple shift in consciousness.

Time for a favorite quote ONE MANS SCIENCE IS ANOTHER MANS MAGIC.

Intu-flow has some pretty good neck movements for oiling and freeing.

where do you live

Look for a teacher or if there is none near you try to find workshop/ seminars.

odd that he is "levitating" at night in the dark. Fake Fake Fake

Nothing like answering a question with a question but anyway. I stand every day for one hour. On bad days I sometimes also ask myself why I stand mostly wu wei knees bent a little. Sometimes I hug a tree or two. I stand for health - to let go of tension and to root. Now how long do you stand and how often. You've already said why.

That's what I was taught. Buddy how often do you stand and for how long

Sometimes I practice while closing my eyes.

Mirror image is an appropriate term. Left instead of right but NOT back instead of forward.

A worthwile practice. I taught myself the reverse of Wu style 108. I did a little at a time - it can be challenging. It is freeing for mind and coordination, breaks fixed patterns. It helps you go deeper into the form and pay attention to the usual side- deeper realizations. Haven't done it in a while. Maybe I'll bring back the practice.

Well maybe your bodies no longer there but where ever your essence is going you will be there. Reminds me of the story of the servant who somehow learns he is going to die so he borrows his masters horse so he can escape death by ridingto the next town. When he gets there death says to him I've been waiting for you. What took you so long. I worked in the world trade center NYC The day of the first world trade center bomb I got up in the morning and told MythisMaker I didn't feel like going to work. She said stay home - don't go. The 9/11 destruction of the twin towers - I no longer worked there after maybe fifteen years of working in the world trade center. If an inner voice tells you something listen but when the big whatever hits where are you gonna go.

Whereever you go there you are.

Agreed he is too stiff and his body is not song - relaxed. Stance is too wide with too much stress on knees.

I don't have and haven't had any image displayed on the right side of the header for quite some time. How do I get it back. Thanks

Practice flat footed feet parallel as possible weight on the outside of your feet so you don't pronate. Go only as far as you can without curving your back in. You can hold on to something in front of you with relaxed arms so you don't fall over. Think of sitting down - lead with your behind taking your thighs toward your calves. Relax as much as you can - release any tension. You can also try sitting on a low stool. Hang out as long as you can without straining - a little each day.
