    Hello,
    I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to determine if I am too much Yin or not enough Yang. I have read that these are two different things with very similar symptoms but different treatments. I have been very fatigued and have a light kind of sick feeling. I tend to have some anxiety, can be temperamental and moody have aches in my muscle and joints and headaches as well as muscle tension. I have been like this for many years. The standing exercises in, i believe, the internal chi breathing video and the microcosmic orbit meditation help a lot. The standing meditations I am referring to are the set that starts with arms stretched out to the sides breathing in through the heels and out through the fingertips and then back through the fingertips and down through the heels.
    any help or advise would be wonderful!
    Thanks
    WTP

    Sorry, I meant too much yin or not enough yang. I have trouble with concentration and cloudy thinking as well. haha

    First, I recommend you go to a medical doctor and rule
    out any obvious medical issues, such as thyroid imbalance,
    diabetic/hypoglycemic, cardiovascular issues, sleep apnea, etc.
    Always good to first be cleared of any underlying issues
    that could be dangerous left unchecked.

    Second, I’d recommend checking your habits. Do you
    consistently get a full night’s sleep each night? Or you
    do try to get by with less? Do you go to bed at the same
    time each night? Do you drink coffee or eat irregular meals?
    Are you an over-achiever, perfectionist, or someone who tries
    to do too much? ETC. ETC. Try correcting these first.

    Third, after doing items #1 and #2, if still no improvement,
    I’d recommend going to a licensed acupuncturist and/or herbalist
    schooled in Chinese medicine and tell them of your issues.
    There they can take your pulses, do a case history, etc.,
    and be able to make diagnoses/recommendations based on their
    knowledge. Don’t self-diagnose either through your own ideas
    or from listening to random things people say.

    Outside of doing the first three things–which I think would be
    pretty important to do if this were a problem that has bothered
    you for quite some time–I would (if I were you) not put my
    personal attention on what is wrong, but rather put my attention
    and energy on things that promote health and wellness. Try to
    identify healthy behaviors and habits . . . things that align you
    with optimal health, and try to incorporate more of these into
    your life.

    The body wants to be healthy and well. The body has a built-in
    innate intelligence for healing (just think about how cuts
    heal and disappear over time). So regardless of what
    is wrong, if you align yourself with health and wellness, your
    body will naturally move in that direction regardless of the
    circumstances of your starting position. So from a qigong
    perspective, whatever your problem is, is ultimately irrelevant.
    If you simply create health in your body, there is nothing to fix.

    How does one do this?

    I think you are already on the right track if you listen to your
    intuition. If you believe the standing-in-stillness postures
    and the microcosmic orbit meditation are helping you, then continue
    to do them and perhaps gently increase the amount. Don’t be
    afraid to listen to your own intuition and to follow what your
    body seems to be telling you is helping it.

    Personally, in my view, standing meditation (in its various forms,
    such as the QF4 video, Iron Shirt 1, Yiquan, etc.) is a critical
    component of any physical healing protocol. Other body-oriented
    practices such as Tai Chi, Tao Yin, etc. are also very supportive.

    Another personal favorite of mine for physical healing
    would be Michael Winn’s Deep Healing Qigong Form.

    See Deep Healing Qigong

    If you are dealing with chronic health issues, I would get this,
    and add this practice to your daily routine.

    Best,
    Steven

    Steven,
    Thank you for your advise. Yes, I have seen many doctors and have many tests, I probably should have mentioned that. I ordered Deep Healing QiGong and I love it! Thanks again!
