@@fatefulbrawl5838 well, yes, I have changed completely in the last 15 years. And the healing is on all levels. Physical, emotional and mental. That's the awesome result of this training!
Thank you. I can feel the vital energy upper body, but I cant seem to feel it lower body, my hips and below. Any advice to get the stretch and feel in the lower body?
Hi Ken, I got your mail also. Thanks for the question! I will make a video for that topic. And next Friday I will upload a video that covers that in part as well. Cheers Armand
Hi thanks for the content, so relaxing but energising. Still having difficulty in pushing open fingers and pulling open. In my mind I think of expand and contract which seems different. Is that important?
Hi Steve, expand and contract is the feeling you are looking for. Opening the joints is the entry to elasticity. Tendons, ligaments, fascia. We are talking about two directions. Pushing joints open is like an expansion in the space between the joints. Pulling is like a vacuum in the space. So, you probably have it. Just ask yourself, do I feel elasticity? Then you are in business. Then relax into the stretch, hang muscles and tune into the feeling of life force. It’s just a feeling we are looking for. Good luck, hope this helps!
Whenever I try to bring the hands closer breathing out, I feel a slight pressure stopping me from getting them closer, when I pull them away from each other while breathing in they come easily. When I get the hands closer and do this kind of tapping, that's when this pressure becomes more obvious as both hands approach, as they get a bit further away I feel a less obvious force pulling them together again, like there's an equilibrium point, where I don't feel any force, any push or pull. Is this what we're aiming at? Or there's something else? Thank you very much for this video and for any further insight! =)
Great, thanks for sharing. This exercise focuses on the awakening of the energy body, which starts with the feeling between the hands. You are looking for the magnetic feeling. Do it a hundred times and you will feel a lot of different sensations. From there you can start with pore breathing and awakening the whole body. The stillness that arises as a byproduct of the training and the feeling is what you want to focus on. Follow the path of stillness and you’ll be oké. Happy training.
I'm confused...you pull the joints open when inhaling. and you... push them "open" when exhaling? how do u push them open? or do u mean u compress the joints by pushing when exhaling? tnx
Hi Alon, maybe these video’s will help: th-cam.com/video/A60vCd971UY/w-d-xo.html and also this one: th-cam.com/video/Ou6ZvkMb4j4/w-d-xo.html. These show maybe a different shape, but still the same concept. By pulling the joints open imagine springs between your fingers, and by pushing, imagine a big spring beton your hands. Hope this helps! Thanks.
SO if you are pulling the joints open, and also Pushing the joints open, when do you close the joints? Are the joints staying open the whole time while breathing in and out? Again, is the exercise to open and close the joints, or to just change the direction from pushing to pulling while the joints stay open the whole time? thank you
This is so strange. At first i felt nothing "magnetic" but at some point it felt as if when my lung expand the area between my hands push outward and when i breathe out my hands are sucked in to the center. It didnt feel as if i imagined it but steangely real
Yes, in order to move the Chi (mind moves Chi, Chi moves the body) we have to learn how to awaken the energy body first. Or else Chi is just a concept, not an actual experience.
If you would slow the feeling down and release time on it yes. If not, it’s on the lower dantian level. It is about learning to wake up the vital energy body, the Jing.
@@ChiSkills no, it's hard to breathe type tension in my chest. Only happens after I breathe in and stretch. Now my breathing is shallow and tense lolol. It takes time for me to breathe normally again. I'm guessing that's not normal? I also do reverse breathing when I stretch. Is that incorrect? Should I direct the breath into my belly instead when I breathe in and stretch?
@@Simon2k17 imagine your lungs between your hands. On the in breath open the space/ ball between the hands as you fill the lungs, and start breathing into the hands like they are suction cups. On the out breath relax into the stretch as the space/ ball between your hands becomes smaller, releasing through the pores etc. Natural breathing, hope this helps.

Thanks for your beautiful comment Michael, all the best from Holland.
*Excellent method here, one step further to developing the chi skills of a Shaolin monk!* 😎👍
Thanks!
@@ChiSkills What are your goals with Tai chi?
@@fatefulbrawl5838 it's all about equanimity for me. Cultivating stillness. Be well and merry Christmas.
@@ChiSkills Same here, have you gained the abilities to heal faster as well?
@@fatefulbrawl5838 well, yes, I have changed completely in the last 15 years. And the healing is on all levels. Physical, emotional and mental. That's the awesome result of this training!

In this case the whole time.

This is important for tai chi too right?
Yes, in order to move the Chi (mind moves Chi, Chi moves the body) we have to learn how to awaken the energy body first. Or else Chi is just a concept, not an actual experience.
Do you happen to know Mark Rasmus?
Yes, he taught me this. Thanks!
Chi Skills I knew it haha
Nice ! Thx . You are all so a student of Roel Jansen aren’t you? It shows in the was you move.
@@karelmeijer5919 yes Karel, I was very lucky to be trained by Roel Jansen! Great that you can see it in the way I move! Have you trained with him?
@@ChiSkills yes I’m one of his students. Have we ever met? I train with him since 2018. Before that I trained Chen style of Feng Zhiqang ( Hunyuan)
Is it activating middle dantian
If you would slow the feeling down and release time on it yes. If not, it’s on the lower dantian level. It is about learning to wake up the vital energy body, the Jing.
The breathing in part is causing tension in my chest. Is that normal?
As long as this tension is fascia stretch you are fine. If it is muscle contraction, then you want to change that to into stretch.
@@ChiSkills no, it's hard to breathe type tension in my chest. Only happens after I breathe in and stretch. Now my breathing is shallow and tense lolol.
