i am a noob and intrested WHERE DO I START

Good morning all, I am glad to have found the board and I look forward to digging into the discussion. I currently live in New Orleans and have been practicing Tai Chi Chuan for a little over 5 years.

Us Noobs could use a help function. I am still not sure how to make an entry in the welcome section and thus be a qualified poster.

Hello everyone! I'm an Irani-born, Italian raised, Bengladeshi lived, brown guy who is currently living in australia as an international student. Spirituality and the inner worlds have always been something of interest to me personally, and I really like Stuart Wilde's thought on daoism. Recently I've taken up NoFap (Quitting pornography and masturbation for a while) and soon discovere the benefits of semen retention. I used to edge a lot before, thinking I would get the benefits of semen retention, but in my experience stopping porn etc. all together changed my life. However sometimes it's just hard to avoid wet dreams, and you feel like there is a lot of sexual build up. So what I realized is that I need to do something about it. To cultivate my life nad manifest what I need. Use this energy to good use. I was thinking of taking up Zhan zhuang for a practice, but I cannot afford or get a teacher at the moment. So I ended up here. Any advice or tips would be highly appreciated!

Hi everyone, I'm glad to be here. I will tell you up front that after decades of reading and struggling and fighting for it, (fill in the blank) . . . I don't know anything at all. Now that's pretty damn funny ain't it! Peace, Just me.

Just when I thought there were no message boards on Taoism... Good to know I was wrong! I'm not much of a Taoist (nor a bum, though in this economy - who knows?), but I do my best to keep things simple whenever I can. Been interested in this topic for a while now... I even wrote a wee Kindle book about it. Who knows, one of these days I might even start a blog and try to get the word out. Don't know if it's just me, but it seems like a lot of people could use a break and some Tao Te Ching while they're at it. I guess this is the obligatory part where I write about myself? 26, male, proud owner of a malfunctioning improbability field, a bit of an entrepreneur and it looks like I'm cursed to wander the world until I meet The One. (So far, it's been Siberia - Seattle - Reno - Omaha - Las Vegas - Texas. O_o ) I'm still trying to wrestle my profile into letting me change the user settings... Either you guys have a particularly peculiar set of defenses against spammers, or technology has moved on while I wasn't looking. Looking forward to hanging out with y'all, Grigory (rhymes with "story")
