Resting is NOT Quiting

Resting deeply is true QiGong practice. Where do we get the perception that we must always be Doing something to make progress? No so. If the active, outward nature of your practice, and indeed your life, is not balanced with receptive, inward nature… alas
thee is going to be off kilter.

When we rest deeply we are letting the healing energy flow inward, to drench our cells, our organs and glands, our every tissue and attitude with healing chi. During the active side of our practice we make our best effort, we do our best with the form. Then we have the opportunity to do our best with the time to rest, surrendering our healing into the QiField, opening our mind and body to the healing energies creative circulation within us. Many of us need much more practice resting, trusting the passive side of the healing process, inviting the miracles to happen when our eyes are closed, our hands are empty, our mind vacant.

What to do when your resting? Feel your energy body inward. Enjoy your breath. Fall asleep. The only requirement is NO Quiting. Don’t sign off, don’t check out. Participate in your surrendering, in your trusting, in your feeling the energy moving inside you.
Enjoy your rest!
Haola!

Do your best! Don’t stress!

Do your best! Don’t stress!
The first and perhaps most important benefit from practicing any forms of QiGong is stress reduction. We start to yawn, breathe easier, slow down and open up to new possibilities. One of those possibilities is that life doesn’t have to be so difficult. We can enter into an experiment with the energy that sustains all life and discover it will sustain us too, today, in the middle of whatever story that has us all tied up.

So begin where you can, with whatever you know. Never been to a class? Don’t have time? Well thanks for taking the time to read this! Haola! (All is well, so be it!) Jump over to my YouTube channel (link on the left) and explore, see someone moving, try it yourself. Copy and experiment.

If you are practicing a form I’ve taught you, awesome! Don’t stress. Do your best. I was up in Oregon House teaching on Sunday and quite a large number of students there are dedicated daily practitioners. They are getting the kind of results we all wish for. AND we discovered that some of the folks who had gotten superior results were technically doing it “wrong”. Wrong form, right attitude. Wow, and now that we made the form adjustments, the chi (Qi) will be flowing even stronger.

The point is, the universe knows when you are doing your best. You can’t do any better than your best. If you’re not feeling well, your best may very well be to lie in bed and watch the video imagining you are practicing. Don’t give yourself a hard time (that thwarts the chi flow!), Relax! Enjoy! That’s the way the chi loves to flow!

Something is better than nothing, experimenting is better than nothing. Give your practice a sincere best effort and you’ll be stunned at the results.

The next ten days I will be assisting my teacher Mingtong Gu at an Intensive Healing Retreat in Sonoma. I’m hoping to capture some of what opens up for me here in the blog… If you’d like me to send you some healing energy from this powerful QiField, just ask!!
Haola!
