Hello all..

What I am adding here is not directly related with the Chi Gunq practice, but I think it may sound interesting..In particular for any one who is concerned with regrowth of hair..I myself dont have a problem with my hair, but I hapenned upon an information useful and promising..Let me tell you how I happened to learn about it..
A friend of mine is a local dealer of an organic farming input. The input in question is a combination of beneficial microorganisms..(I dont write the commercial name of the input, in order not to advertise it.But by using the keywords of beneficial microorganisms one may have access to the product in question.) However, farming is not the only area where the product is used. There are some versions of it , intended for using in some areas of human health - like cancer treatment- A few days ago I read a booklet, showing the pictures of some people growing new hair, and also white hair turning to coloured hair. As I have already read many scientific research about the product as a farming input, I rely on the information presented by the producer, in other words, I have a reason to think that what is sold is not another snake oil. So, I wanted to share this information on this board...

Angel,
If you are in Rio de Janeiro you can learn it at Sociedade Taoista in Cosme Velho (Rua das Laranjeiras).
There are other places as well, but I know this one for sure.

Chi Gung can definitely do much to rejuvenate the body despite what our Yogic buddies might think. Yoga and Chi Gung are based on entirely different principles after all. The philosophy, purpose, and the way energy flows in Taoist and Yogic exercises is very different, they come from different countries and although there has been some cross over it would be wrong to relate the two activities together.

The strength and condition of the hair is significantly related to the condition of the Kidneys for example in TCM so deep breathing can do a great deal to massage these organs and make them much more efficient. The kidneys control growth and reproduction and so they are related to the ageing process.

Hair loss in Chinese medicine is often attributed to the rise of heat in the body into the head but is also related to stress. Chi Gung can help here too by keeping the heating and cooling energies flowing around the body and helping you to relax therefore allowing the rejuvenation process to work.

The eyes are more closely related to the liver so in any of these cases if you do Chi Gung exercises or more properly Medical Chi gung related to these organs then the corresponding part of the body will also benefit.

In general hair loss, teeth, and poor eyesight are connected with the amount of Jing or essence the body has stored and can process to aid rejuvenation. If you have lived a rock and roll lifestyle and taken drugs, alcohol or smoked then your Jing will be weaker, also the same is true if you 'overthink' or get stressed out easily, you will simply burn up more of your precious essences. Obviously good diet is also important and if you eat too much sugar then sure you can kiss goodbye to your teeth before too long.

If you live your life according to Taoist principles this is probably just as important as following a Chi Gung routine, after all an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure now isn't it?
