Swinging Arms

[DanC]

I have been reading various books on Chi Kung and have came accross the Swinging arms chi kung exercise. For the last couple of mornings I did 300 repititions and could not believe how powerful this simple

movement is, my mind was relaxed and I could feel Chi flowing through my entire body and I felt calm, energized and relaxed for the entire day.

 

Here is a link describing how to perform this movment, give it a go you will be suprized at how effective it is.

Ron Diana was fond of this one. He would have us do it for quite a while, & yea, maybe 300 reps is a good start. He would said that you could chase out every frozen pattern in you body with just this form. Another very simple but very powerfull movement.

Hi Dan,

 

This practice sounds similar to something I have been shown called the "mouse swing". Having briefly read the article referred to by you, it seems the difference is that when I drop my arms I breath out through my nose in a short, concerted "burst" of air that is powered by compressing my belly. I also focus my attention to my lower tan tien while performing the mouse swings.

 

Generally I will do this for 4 or 5 minutes and then go straight into holding the tree and some of the sensations I then experience are pretty wonderful.

So the scret of it is to have weight on the heels? I know there are many different people teaching this including B.K. Francis...
