Hello Michael,
I do feel a definite change since the
2012 shift, and I’ve been trying to
find a way to put it into words.On Dec 22, I did a Solstice Ceremony
(see my Practice Log, most recent entry
for detailed description of that night).The biggest shift I feel is that of
some kind of internal grounding, a kind

I have learned Buddha Palm and practiced it before,
but I haven’t practiced it in a while to be honest.
Currently, I’ve been focusing on my Tai Chi practices,
as I hope to certify in them soon.Maybe you could share some of your experiences
with it. Cosmic Healing tends to be a topic that
is not as common or available in the US . . .…[Read more] -

I don’t know anything about clinical trials,
but it is considered a “classical” Chinese
herbal formulation, one that has been
around for a while historically in China
and Japan.Note: I am not an herbalist.
However, “Bupleurum and Dragon Bone”
is a formulation that I take myself.
So consequently I can vouch for the
fact that it…[Read more] -

How soon is it that you are going to China?
Master Zhongxian Wu is another Daoist living (mostly)
here in the US, and he plays the guqin. I’m
not sure if he teaches it, but he plays it
and you can buy his CDs. He also teaches a
full spectrum of Daoist arts, namely Qigong,
authentic Chinese calligraphy, meditation,

If you are having wet dreams, but it is not due to
sexual abstinence or intentionally trying to avoid
ejaculation in your waking life, then this speaks
to a different issue I feel.My feeling would either be unresolved
psycho-sexual issues (Lesser Kan & Li course
is one way to explore this), or possibly
simply liver…[Read more] -

There are many ways to devote own’s life

involve explicitly joining a Daoist temple.Let me list a few to give you an idea of
different options.1. Develop a daily home-study of Daoist
practices (such as the Healing Tao material
on this website). Your level of devotion

There are no masters here,
only people sharing experiences.Dreams typically allow you to explore and
express that which is not expressed in waking life.Wet dreams are a combination of the simple biological
desire to release aging prostate fluid, so the body
can fill the area with fresh fluid . . . combined

Because if you are going to be attacked by a lion,
all the blood and qi is drawn to the heart area,
and the heart starts pumping really fast to give
you extra energy to run faster and/or fight for your
life. You breathe differently too . . . typically
short, shallow, quick breaths in the upper chest.
