The Taoist Water Method chi gung (qi gong)Training
The energy gates training teaches the pathways and the method to locate and dissolve physical and emotional blockages in the body as well as teaching the practitioner how to develop awareness of the finer bodies through the practice of standing meditation and the outer dissolving process. The training teaches a method for locating the energy gates, for developing awareness of what constitutes proper physical alignment for the purposes of achieving maximum chi flow and how to maintain the alignments, internal and external, in movement. Four moving exercises complement the standing meditation as well as exercise for the purposes of releasing tension held in the vertebrae and spinal cord. Developing awareness of and the ability to move each individual vertebrae becomes possible with its myriad health giving and sickness alleviating potential. The energy gates training contains all the fundamental internal components of tai chi chuan and is considered to offer one of the most profound insight trainings into the body and ultimately to the Tao.
