Flying Phoenix Chi Kung

[-ꦥꦏ꧀ ꦱꦠꦿꦶꦪꦺꦴ-]

Another tip @VinC, you can do Monk Holds Pearl seated at the end of your practice to bring the qi back to the lower dantian. 
 

Monk Holds Pearl can also be done lying down and seated in a chair, I like to do it when I’m commuting to work on bus or train, or when I’m on the airplane so I get some extra practice in.

Wanted to share my experience.  I ebuoy doing FP Chi Kung.  I split it in the AM and before bed.  However , while doing PanGu Shengong and SFQ- I never got sick.  In the 2 weeks I've been doing FP- I have gotten sick 2 different times.  This current time is 102.7 F fever.  🥴😞.  I'm tempted to return to PanGu for an hour a day.  Definitely frustrating.

Oh no, that is a shame, and is perhaps an indication you should stick with PanGu for the time being. How long have you been doing that form of qi gong for?

 

A sign of a good practice is that you get ill less often, so PanGu was clearly working for you. It might be that your body is just currently adapting to a new practice and that has weakened your immune system, but I don't think that's right, as my transition to fpck was very smooth and easy. In fact, it had an immediate positive impact after the first session.

 

I've injured myself recently so am currently just doing Monk Holds Pearl, lying down and sitting, maybe try that? The fever will pass, then you can take it from there. Good luck 🤞

I'm going to do what you (and others) have suggested. MHPearl.  I learned PanGu Shengong in 2009 and received immediate benefits, while I was fighting Lyme Disease and Hypothyroidism.  I also mix in SFQ Level 2 Energy Breathing - for a total of 90 min a day between both forms.  I've been doing FP anywhere from 30-55 min a day.  I skipped qigong all together yesterday due to the fever and lethargy.

Oh god, I'm totally out of my depth on this one now.

 

When I first started fpck, I already had a mildly energetic practice, and as soon as I had converted my energy to Flying Phoenix chi after the first meditation, it felt very pleasant and benevolent.

 

This is a very different experience to your self.

 

I can only suggest that the level of achievement in your other practices is actually pretty high, and is benefiting you well. It might just be that to get to the same level of benefit at fpck will, I'm afraid, take a bit of time.

 

But for some reason this does not feel to be the right answer, so I am out of solutions 😔
