Hopefully someone will have better advice for you than me. I'll try to pay attention to the thread and if I don't see any activity from any of the more knowledgeable folks, I'll see if I can find some other safe healthy options for you.

Are you a student? What kind of life style are you living in? Do you do the m-thing alot like a teenager? Please tell me more about yourself so I can help you. I don't think the problem can be solved as simple as unclog or open the meridians. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your muscles are not contracting to generate the energy in your body to function properly. How is your breathing? Tell me how deep can you breathe. Breathing and muscle exercise is very important for your health. Practice Taiji is good for you to improve your present health. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gerard Posted July 30, 2023 Steps to open the meridians: 1. Walking mindfully for many hours/days/years especially if you start at the mature age. Circle walking preferably. Combine it with seated meditation practice. 2. Regulating the Yin & Yang, the 4 Phases and the 5 Forces 3. Acting upon the joints by using an Internal Martial Art or any other Kung Fu style that involves bending, twisting, stretching, sinking, expanding and rising (all related to the action of fhe 5 Forces). 4. Practice in the natural environment as often as you can. 5. Celibacy. 6. Good quality food and clean air. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gerard Posted September 3, 2023 Your question has been answered already in your quote. Add full time meditation practice as well which I missed to mention. A good practice would be Vipassana. 50/50 walking/seated meditation in a 24/7 practice setting. You would need a teacher in any of the methods including the full time meditation/retreat.
