Loneliness is IME something one can use. To go deep into the pain it causes to be lonely and to allow it to break your heart open. After that it's all "aloneness" with no emotion attached to it. edit: Once you become a man of power there will probably be women wanting your company. Depending on your path you may want to spend time with them or you will simply direct them towards proper cultivation so they can also find they need nobody

You're right. That makes me the fool.

To eat more could help him or hurt him, if he is suffering from toxemia, which he probably is, he should go through a purification process like the ayurvedic panchakarma. After the initial purging and tonification of the digestive system he will actually have a chance to digest what he eats. Standing, walking and full lotus sitting will be beneficial once he has cleansed and put himself on the right path. If his weakness is due to a sickness of an organ then it's not good to invest energy into building muscle power yet, just exercise enough to keep up the spirits and circulation. Tonics will be great.. Ginseng, Ashwagandha, Brahmi, Calamus, Rehmannia, there's so many that are good for low energy and weakness. Ashwagandha and ginseng will help build Jing and nourish the tissues. Gokshura is a kidney strengthener. To be safe its probably good to get a prescription form a TCM or ayurvedic doctor. A spiritual life will help.

You just did FOOL big universal loooove everyone

I have to agree. No one here knows what kind of purification he will have to go through before any healing and tonifying can take place.

Tervetuloa maanmiehet! Welcome countrymen!

Yes people take it very personally and oftentimes indeed get hurt if you confront their culture. It's so near to our "self", like fat to the muscle, that we often cannot distuingish between the two. Well, to be able to do that we need to "realise" (both get the initial spark and then dedicate to working it) that the self is in fact empty, an ever changing flow.. And that can be a very threatening realisation.

Well, for myself I prefer people to be honest with me even if it's a bitter truth. Im not saying they have to be RIGHT just SINCERE Hmmm... whatever you do, whether you "go along " with people or you "take a nick" out of people, you have to trust your judgment.

Paul Walter wrote: "You as an empath will have some issues to face that could be rather hidden under all the 'niceness', it's difficult to 'see' this sometimes when we are giving a lot (energeticaly and otherwise) to others all the time. " Yeah this sounds familiar.. Many of us appreciate "nice" over "sincere" so much we start over-doing it and, well, pretending. One can learn/teach much more by being honest and up front, and it allows things to be processed instead of buried. Sometimes you have to hurt people with honesty simply because they have it coming anyway.

Full lotus sitting has improved my standing. It feels more powerful to stand with the hips open. I like both postures.

Why? Any decent Qigong is quick and powerful. Of course, it's all relative.

Funny when I look at this thread it's 8:19

Microcosmic Orbit is the foundation for both sexual Kung Fu and kidney rejuvenation.

it may take some time.. you will learn patience

I'm nowadays waking up 4.30 to do Qigong from 5 to 6 am. This feels very good and I see no going back to my old erratic ways.

It's funny how quickly the appeal of sexual power -and special energetic experiences in general- has diminished for me over the last half a year or so. At first the new idea of "different" sexuality with energy orgasms and the like seemed very empowering and endlessly interesting, now I feel it's just another phenomenon among all others, nothing to get too excited about.. I do notice how personal power attracts women and makes them more interested in sex and energy exchange. Apart from a few "experimentations" I haven't abused that much to this day, which I feel good about.

Health, receptiveness, sensitivity, flexibility, insight, healing powers, silence, funny things happening spontaniously.

Spring Forest Qigong can be learned from DVD/books. It's a great way to start if you haven't yet met a teacher. I don't have a teacher anywhere near me so I wanted the simplest and safest possible Qigong system to practice on my own. It's been very smooth, effective and inspiring.

Since I started doing MCO in full lotus every morning (30 min) all excess sexual urges and loneliness have dissipated. Not to say I'm not sexual, but I now realise how far from healthy I've been. This morning there was an exceptionally clear sensation of cool juice rising up, as well as the lower back opening.

For a Daoist there is always room for Mo' Pie.. But do listen to the teacher, especially when dealing with high voltage.

Well the positive emotions are something very effortless.. Nothing much to work on there

Last night I was too tired to be interested in any type of sex but this morning the wife told me she had an orgasm neverthless, with no physical stimulation. This is convenient, as she didn't have to bother me for it

Colds and flus can be necessary to get rid of mucus and toxins, and thus the best preventive against colds is to avoid accumulating mucus and toxins. That way even if you do get a cold it's not likely to bother you much. Sugar and milk are mucus forming, as well as anything poorly digested.

Yes, well put. And this is how I was intorduced to Taoist practices a couple of years ago. I just didn't know what the hell to do with my sex energy. From there I soon went on to Dao Yin and SFQ. After that it all started to flow smoother. Nowadays sex is not a problem.. It's funny to notice how I just don't get that lonely anymore, even during many weeks of no sex. oh yeah, I started taking the Indian herb Ashwagandha justa a few weeks ago.. Now I'm noticing a nice increase in my overall vitality. I seem to need less sleep and sexual wise I feel more powerful yet harmonic.

I would seriously consider dropping Big Draw and others dealing with (stimulated) sexual energy. It's too intense! A few years or more of gentle practice with focus on relaxing and disciplining the mind as well as balancing and refining your qi will eventually prepare you for whatever you want to proceed with.
