POWER of Qi Gong 18 Style.

The fun of working on my ‘61 VW bus turned to pain after I tried to “muscle” the engine that one last inch into place. Lying on my side under the vehicle pulling with my right arm, I knew I could get the engine to move that one inch more, I just needed pull harder. The engine did not move, however, I managed to pull the muscle in my right shoulder, spraining it to the point that for awhile I thought it might have separated.

After a few days of reduced activity and increased pain, it occurred to me that I needed to do what I tell others to do:  “Get up and do the practice, do it with care and awareness.”

I also treated my shoulder with Zheng Gu Shui, a Chinese herbal liniment every morning and evening. What do you know! After a couple of days, there was noticeable improvement. Two weeks later it was feeling significantly better. And now four weeks after the injury, my shoulder is almost ‘normal’. I have full range of motion, can lift and carry with my right arm as long as what I am carrying is not too heavy.  Qi Gong 18 Style was the solution. I have healed with no medication, only one chiropractic adjustment to realign my ribs, and a daily ritual practice of Qi Gong 18 Style.

This experience has reminded me of the power of Qi Gong 18 Style. After many years of practice and no particular challenges, I had lost sight of its POWER to heal. That must be why I had to try to be Hercules: so I would be reminded of the true POWER of Qi Gong 18 Style.

Organs and the Clock

This is an interesting blog post, Why doesn’t the Chinese Clock Go Tic Toc? This article is talking about the relationship between the time of day and organ function. Each of the organs is influenced by the rotation of the sun. The influence determines the energy of each organ. The day is divided into two-hour segments, 12 segments, one for each of the Yin and the Yang organ pairs. During the corresponding segment of the day, each Yin/Yang pair of organs reaches maximum energy/influence. This event happens in the same order and at the same time day after day. Read the article and learn how you are influenced by Mother Nature.
