Buy a book on STRETCHING and BREATHING sorts of qigong, for example daoyin, eight pieces of brocade, Taiji qigong of Feng Zhiqiang, or something like that where you just breath, stretch, massage and move. Without concentrating on secret mind stuff, and energies you not even nearly know how it feels if they really begin to deepen.

Then you just do the stuff as described, and don't try to change the current statte of your muscles by head, stimulate your liver to put inappropriate stuff into your blood, and like. Just do what is described.

Sorry, if sounding rude, but the number of people that suppose doing DA REAL STUFF (concentrate on the force, Luke) mixing themselves up to extremes is a little bit too high for my nerves currently. Sorry.

BTW, you find an attachment of me in the "warm chi-kung" thread, do that as I described, once or at most twice a week for slowly getting a good effect.

I agree w/ Nik.

In general Yang Jwing Ming's books are good. Also, Liang Shouyu has a book called "Qigong Empowerment" that I think is excellent. Feng Zhiqiang wrote a book that has silk reeling exercises in it, but the only english translation I've seen is privately published and has a very small distribution. If you can find it, it was translated by Ted Knecht and Nick Gracenin.

Good Luck.
