flanneau Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) I mean the version as explained in 'qigong teachings of a taoist immortal'. Edited August 9, 2016 by flanneau Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flanneau Posted August 9, 2016 I think there is a lot of good information in the book, I have some difficulties in comprehending the fifth brocade (single pass windlass) and the sixth brocade (double pass windlass). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yinqi Posted August 9, 2016 There is a very good seated brocade video on YouTube. The windlass postures are much simpler. However the Olson book is really interesting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daeluin Posted August 9, 2016 I recall quite enjoying "Eight Brocade Seated QiGong," though I am not sure how this book differs from his "qigong teachings of a taoist immortal" book. Â The one I read was full of textual explorations which gave multiple perspectives when it came to actually exploring the how-to of the practice near the end of the book. I only ever did the first four though. Â Curious now about how the teachings of this book differ from that book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
