Yin Yang, Shambo the bull,Qi Gong- what is all this nonsense?
Whatever happened to going for a brisk walk and eating well? More silliness from the local English rag today about balancing your Yin and Yang. I thought Yin was 'one' in Scotland.
''Concentration boosts effectiveness; Qi-Gong balances yin, yang in body
This week we are continuing with the 24 important rules that are necessary to know and practice for Qi-Gong to be successful. These rules are to be followed as much as possible, in order to make the Qi-Gong practice more effective. Each rule has reasons behind it, and even if we don’t understand these rules on an esoteric level, we can certainly understand them on an obvious physical level. Thus, to continue our journey into the world of Qi-Gong ……''
So even though you don't understand them.....it's ok , you'll understand them.......
''12) Make sure that you don’t need to go to the bathroom. If you do, then stop whatever it is that you’re doing, suspend the Qi-Gong exercise that you’re in the middle of, and relieve yourself.''
Would that be kind of anywhere you are ? Salem Al Mubarek Street....Ikea ?
''13) If you are in the middle of practicing any Qi-Gong exercise, and you feel like you have something that itches you, it could be one of two things. It could be something like a mosquito biting, or it could be that your Chi has redistributed itself to that area of your body. If the itch is from something like a mosquito, then you can scratch it, but before you do, redirect your concentration to your Qi-Gong exercise, channel your Chi, and then scratch it. If the itch is due to your Chi going wrong, then you redirect your concentration and don’t scratch the itch, as it should disappear if you have redirected and rechanneled properly.''
Again, would it matter where you where or where that itch was? Damn mosquitoes.
Number 16 is particularly interesting, for I'm sure many of us would plan on doing a bit of exercise in our newly washed , dripping wet clothes- but just in case, Mia reminds us....
''16) Make sure that you are wearing dry clothes at all times.''
Next one is quite attractive to visualise.....
22) If you produce excess saliva while you are practicing Qi-Gong, don’t spit it out, but simply swallow it. This is important for your concentration.
So Mia says swallow.....
''The practice of Qi-Gong can be anything from extremely simple to extremely complicated. Naturally you start off with the basics and then move your way up. Remember, Rome wasn’t built in a day.''
It certainly wasn't Mia and I'm glad you reminded us of that old cliche....
And she gets paid to write that drivel ?
