release tension. These exercises are done in a circular fashion and a specific order. These exercises can be performed at any time and any place, with or without other techniques.

2) CONDENSING BREATHING: This is, in my opinion, the single most important part of Tai Chi, Chi Kung, and other related internal meditation, and energy cultivation exercises.

Incorporating "condensing breathing" into your daily practice will increase your energy levels, chi awareness, personal power intensity, and spiritual stamina.

3) BASIC PATH TRAINING: In order to prepare you for the upcoming training and work, I have incorporated into the training basic Tai Chi forms. These exercises are to help beginners with no previous experience to express themselves and become more present. These exercises have been incorporated to help keep you grounded as well as give you a physical vehicle to build your Chi Kung practice upon.

These exercises are designed to teach each practitioner the location of the basic channels, their doors, which are the specific location in which the chi enters and leaves the body, and the directions and pathways the energy flows through in the body.

4) BREATHING TRAINING: There are only two basic breathing techniques.

A. OUTSIDE AIR: This type of breathing has also been referred to as stomach or abdominal breathing. This is very similar to the breathing done in Zen meditation. This will be used for comparison purposes only.

B. INSIDE AIR: This type of breathing is very special and important. This particular technique has also been referred to as "pre-natal breathing" or "fetal breathing." This is a type of breathing that does not rely upon the lungs and general circulation for air, but refers rather to the breath as used in your mothers womb, before you were born. "Inside air "is an internal system of breathing which should be at the heart of "Chi Kung."

5) SITTING FORMS WITH THE MIND TRAINING / AKA - 6 FORMS AND 7

CIRCULATIONS: These exercises are what I consider the heart of "CHI KUNG." These are the exercises that make "CHI KUNG" an internal exercise system. It is important to understand that these are not just physical movements, and that there are very specific chi circulations involved in each exercise.

6) THE MICRO COSMIC ORBIT / AKA - THE 10 STEP CYCLE: This is the most important part of the "CHI KUNG" system. This is directly related to how you cultivate and circulate your chi, and is one of the most sought after techniques, by both meditation and TAI CHI students alike.

7) STILLNESS SITTING WITH CONDENSING (TAOIST MEDITATION): This is a general term used to describe many of "The Chi Circulations" practiced in this Chi Kung system. There are many techniques that can be as specific as possible.

8) CLEANSING OF THE BONE MARROW / LIGAMENT AND CONNECTIVE TISSUE EXERCISES: The major reason for practicing this set of exercises is to prevent problems associated with sitting for long periods of time. These exercises are not for stretching your muscles, but are more for exercising your sinews (ligaments, tendons, and cartilage tissue).

9) HEAVENLY DRUM (49 TIMES): This is an exercise used to help you realize your chi.

By practicing heavenly drum, you become more aware and sensitive to the flow of your internal

energy. This exercise helps to calm you, and create your own personal space. This is a very well known exercise and has been written about in many books.

10) HEAVENLY WATER (36 TIMES): This is an exercise to help you feel your own internal heart. This is also helpful in strengthening your teeth and gums, and improving your digestion.

What it's for Important preparation for "The Micro Cosmic Orbit."

THIS MUST ALWAYS BE PRACTICED PRIOR TO DOING "THE MICRO COSMIC ORBIT.

Long term implications Puts a snap in many of your circulations. Develops internal coordination and improves your posture when not practicing.

5) SITTING FORMS WITH THE MIND TRAINING AKA / 6 FORMS AND 7 CIRCULATIONS

What it is Movements performed in a sitting position, using the arms in

connection with the torso. These are used to create the pathways the energy flows through. Remember, the energy circulations are more important than the actual physical movements. Don't be concerned with the correctness of the movements. Be more concerned with your intention in circulating your energy through these specific pathways.

Don't forget any internal details.

What it's for Connecting the body as a single unit. To create communication with all your cells.

Long term implications Helps to "bore out" and increase the energy pathways. These circulations are unique to "Chi Kung" and should be practiced for many years.

6) PALMS ON KNEES MEDITATION

What it is Connecting meditations through your knees and your palms.

What it's for Connecting your condensing breathing through your arms and legs.

This opens your major energy channels.

Long term implications Helps to create "a vacuum" in your body for storing and attracting more energy.

7) STILLNESS SITTING WITH CONDENSING BREATHING

What it is Condensing breathing without the effort placed on the physical body.

Done in a sitting position, this is also to reduce the harmful effects of gravity.

9) CLOSING THE CIRCUIT

What it is The final step or conclusion of "The Micro Cosmic Orbit." The downward drop of your energy and return to "Tan Tien" (3 inches below your navel).

What it's for The return home of your essential energy where it is stored in "Tan Tien."

Long term implications Absolutely necessary to preserve your Jing.

Releasing your dreams into the universe

Long term implications Strengthening all your Chi Kung practices. The final connection to your own reality. External actualizations.

14) LAYERED CONDENSING

What it is Calling you own energy back to you. It is like the opposite of an onion skin. The more you can "fit in," the better and more valuable this technique will prove to be.
