Exercising the Soul: How Tai Chi Connects You to Your Authentic Self


The collision opened a cauldron down my center core and at the same time the sun rippled across the crystalline peak of Pilot Mtn. My entire being erupted with a burst of pure white yuan light. It was so beautiful I about fell over, then looked around to see where I was. No one had noticed, but Michael had a smirk on his face I thought it would be hard to keep the directions strait just sitting in one direction facing east, next to Michael but all it took was for me to set the intent and invite the pattern to unfold and it did.

I did absolutely no qi manipulation during the meditation and just sat and watched the pattern unfold VERY slowly, taking almost 3 hours. I learned how to truly feel the shift of consciousness in the qi field thru my body during this mediation. It felt like someone was pouring water thru the pathways, but the water did not move, it only passed the consciousness of movement thru the pathway.

See a Problem?

I learned that qi does not move in the field, but rather passes consciousness thru the field. In this case it was linear but can pass consciousness non-linearally, multidimensionally across great perceived distances as well I have spent four years working with this form. Drawing in the five elements, thru the four sacred directions and center, holding but also turning upon the centre known as the core channel. I flow into a deeper version of myself, part sky dancer, part geomancer, moving back and forth embracing earth, embracing heaven.

This mystery of what this core channel is deepens. I am astonished at the process I witness. This practise complements and supports all of the Taoist inner alchemy Kan and Li practises. Its a kind of initiation into those mysteries. This Taoist stuff just gets better and better, melting into the nooks and crannies of my life until it threatens to coat everything.

I took a flight into Dulles on my way back to Philly. Surrounded by a concourse of coffee driven carts and mad dashes is an invisible haven: Inside, the chairs are arranged and focus god onto the pulpit, but off to the side, in front of pictures of the Quaba sic and the Koran lays a rich broad carpet. Off with my shoes and backpack, onto the magic carpet and into this labyrinthine primordial form that calls the center from within. It made the rest of the trip much more bearable. I don't think I have had such a balanced effect from any of the other forms as I have with this one so far.

Because it is so deeply centering, I can understand why it offers a different response each time. It is like calling into a very deep cavern and listening for the echo of my voice. It feels like a really sweet orgasm. After purchasing the audio CD's for Primordial QiGong, it helped to fill in the gaps and helped my understanding of the form and helps it all make sense. The background information and the questions and answers really brought it all together for me, and so hence I found the audio CD's really essential in my completely integrating the form into a daily practice.

I was disappointed in the speed of shipping and handling in this day of Amazon. When people order something they are excited to get it. Take away the technical points and service logistics and Michael Winn and Primordial Qigong are a The hype re the great healers, etc.

This may be someone who is energetically not open to the marvelous benefits of this form, testified to by hundreds of people. But his negative judgmental comment denying others their reality suggest his resistance to his OWN healing. This could not take place unless he did the days practice of this form daily.

It helped me to practice at home and have a teacher available at every moment I like it. Worth the price and a treasure for the rest of my life. I still need to practice more in order to understand, but dvd is very good I think. I appreciate the way Michael has added the refinements into each segment where they belong.

It took a few times through watching the video but the instructions were clear, the demonstrations helpful, and after a couple of weeks I'm now doing the practice outdoors, without the help of the video to watch. I'm appreciative of this practice being extended to us, humankind, at this time. The effect of the practice for me has been soothing, relaxing, unwinding, yielding, returning. The instruction on the video is clear and helpful. The sound quality, if you focus on the background sounds, it gets a little much; however, if you can let it go and feel for the transmission, it is rich and full and quite supportive for learning a new practice.

This is an excellent practice and a solidly good purchase. The audio CDs are another issue. I haven't yet had the time to listen to all the audio CDs, but there is at least a long time of physical shaking that is not on the DVD. Home About Tai Chi Index: Health Tai Chi difference?
