JessOBrien Posted February 21, 2020 Hi Papayapple, Thanks! So glad you liked it. We are trying to give some informal history/experiences of our own along with an indepth review of the material in the book. It seems like most stuff out there is instructional, so we want to do something more personal and entertaining I hope. We have a new episode if you wanna check it out:  https://neijiaquan.podbean.com/e/the-neijiaquan-podcast-episode-5/  The Neijiaquan Podcast Episode 5 February 19th, 2020 In episode 5 we discuss the principle of "raising the spine and dropping the chest" and it's application in energy gates qigong (chigung) and internal martial arts, like xingyi, bagua and tai chi. Also Jess tells a story about Bruce and Isaac reminisces about the old days at Anvil Ranch and Bruce's early retreats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
