A. Absorbing Chi refers to the practice of building Universal Chi from the ambient energy around you through specific physical activities, breathing and visualization.
First you absorb the Chi and then you learn how to cultivate what you have to build more Chi and store it in the body.
The primary storage locations in the body are in the lower dan tien and in the bone marrow inside the bones. This practice method (known as Bone Marrow Washing) is a highly regarded secret in Chi kung. There are extensive books that have been translated into English on Bone Marrow Washing. These texts explain in great detail what Marrow Washing is but they do not explain how to do Marrow Washing. In the book “Chi Energy: Activation, Cultivation and Flow” I have a section explaining how to practice Bone Marrow Washing and this is also taught in the 3 Day Healing Chi Kung Course.
Q. What are energy blocks?
A. There are many different forms of energy blockages but the symptoms are generally the same.
Commonly an old injury or arthritis has choked off the nerve function. The flow of bio- electricity between synapses is lessened and numbness and neuropathy sets in which causes a decrease in feeling and a loss of power and mobility in the affected area.
After some period of time most people seem to become used to and accepting of this and they assume it is just part of their daily life and how things are. The problem is that when you have inhibited or no sensation in part of your body over a pro-longed period of time then atrophy and disease tends to set in and your body cannot properly fight the problem. Often people are in such debilitated shape that they need assistance to get everything flowing and properly working again. Universal Healing Chi Kung is an excellent method for this kind of work.
