Edd Posted November 25, 2007 Hello, I noticed you replied recently so was hoping to catch you. It's Chris, right? So, I have the Bliss book & practiced for a week. I felt a stable 'certainty' type of energy when I was around potentially stressful situations. I work with mentally/emotionally disabled adults and this practice seemed to boost my psychic self defense/energy in a more 'certain' way than just my yoga, which has left me maybe too open at times. So it was going well. My problem is with the right arm up position. I have a chronic neck/scapula/ shoulder issue that was agravated by the right arm up position. At the end of the week practicing level 1 the tension was back & I had to trade in the practice for my yoga as pushing through pain is a very bad thing for myself, anyone for that matter. Could you advise? Would left arm up/ right arm down work? I'd really like to continue to see this practice into fruition. Also, is there a chance a workshop will ever be held in Canada? I e-mailed this practice question to Kunlunbliss contact but was unsure if I would hear back. Thanx for any tip you can give. In return I'd be willing to post a testimonial on the site if I was able to continue my practice. Thank you, Ed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeblast Posted November 25, 2007 (edited) Thank you, Ed Perhaps try an exercise like 8 pieces of brocade to supplement - there's a lot of good neck and shoulder stuff in those. I'll also do a little spine waving during kunlun when I feel my arms or shoulders get tight. Just a little bit helps me go longer Edited November 25, 2007 by joeblast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mantra68 Posted November 25, 2007 Just hold the position to activate the energy. Then let it go. You don't have to hold the position the whole time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
