I've trained qigong since 1997. A lot of my efforts have been put into abdominal embryonic breathing. My first year of practice I did nothing but abdominal breathing, lifting sky, and pushing mountains. Sometime after the first year, I began training 8 pieces of brocade. I practiced those forms daily for about 2 years. After purchasing Qigong, The Secret of Youth by Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming, I practiced the Da Mo fist set for about six months. I changed my training routine shortly thereafter to my original routine. It's easy to forget where you start, and I saw quite positive results from there. I injured my shoulder at work Dec. 26, 2003, and I have not been able to use my right arm since that time due to a torn tendon. My routine changed drastically to embryonic breathing and a combination of five gates/bone breathing/walking qigong. I've had fantastic success with my practice as of late. I have on multiple occassions demonstrated fa qi, or qi transmission. I used this on my late friend's mother to temporarily revive her from a coma days before her death. I also used fa chi during my wife's pregnancy due to the severe complications she was having. Our daughter was born after only a five month gestation period fully developed with none of the problems typically associated with premature births. Using chi on the area of my surgery just recently, I was able to heal the incisions within 12 days from the operation. It typically takes 14 days to regenerate the first layer of skin. I've on multiple occasions, though I will admit I felt at full peak during these times, shocked people with a discharge of energy from my skin. It was not static electricity, for we were already in contact well before the shock occured.

I cannot convince anyone who doesn't want to be convinced, but I will say this: the knowledge I have placed here to share with others is knowledge I have gained through experience. None of the posts stating I am speculating are able to back up their claims whatsoever. I myself, however, am able to back up what I am saying not only with evidence and countless reports, but also on the word of experts whom I do not even know. You will believe what you will believe, but that will not change the facts.
