Chi Kung For Health, Volume Two: Six Seated Meditations

CHI KUNG (qigong) means “energy work,” the ancient Chinese yogic art that cultivates man’s intrinsic internal energy, or vital life force–which the Chinese call “chi” (qi). For centuries, Qigong has been practiced for healing, rejuvenation and longevity―and is the foundation of all systems of Chinese martial, healing, and spiritual arts. Chi Kung For Health is a ground-breaking DVD series by Terry Dunn (creator of Tai Chi For Health dvd’s) that teaches the very rare and powerful “Flying Phoenix Heavenly Healing Chi Meditations”–a remarkable system of medical qigong (there are also martial styles of Qigong, which this is not). It was created more than 400 years ago by legendary Taoist sage Feng Tao Teh of Ehrmei Mountain (Omeishan) in Szechuan Province who traveled extensively throughout China’s western frontier and Tibet to acquire his yogic knowledge. This rare and powerful healing art has been impeccably preserved by seven generations of Taoist martial arts masters, and is now available to the public–as a precise, safe, and dynamic program for natural health, healing and illumination. It is comprised of standing and seated, stationary and moving exercises that impart profound health benefits: improved circulation, respiration, metabolism, skeletal strength, neuromuscular function and immunity. Flying Phoenix Qigong is ideal for beginners and advanced students alike because its exercises are simple and fool-proof, can be practiced safely without the supervision of a Qigong master, and yet they impart profound energizing and rejuvenating effects. Because of the deep state of physical relaxation and mind-body integration that it fosters, Flying Phoenix Qigong is also an excellent complement to Tai Chi practice, while being considerably easier to learn and practice. This wonderful hygienic art not only promotes splendid good health and longevity, but it as a complete Qigong system, it provides an invaluable foundation of experience by which one can fully understand and evaluate all methods of yoga and meditation. The five-volume DVD series is beautifully filmed by Mike Hoover. Terry Dunn’s expert, step-by-step instruction is enhanced by multiple camera angles and accompanied by transcendent musical scores by Robert Scott Thompson. In Volume Two, Terry Dunn teaches six basic seated meditations of the Flying Phoenix Celestial Healing Qigong system, a subset called “Monk Serves Wine.” Exercises one through three are very simple and easy-to-do–yet powerful–preparatory meditations that instantly mobilize qi in the upper body and bring it into tangible awareness. Each exercise begins with a short breath-control sequence. “Monk Serves Wine” Exercises four through six consist of simple and elegant sequences of natural upper body movements done in the half-lotus position. Each is performed with total relaxation in set of seven repetitions following a breath-control sequence. The Flying Phoenix seated exercises develop fine control over basic energy (qi) pathways governed by eyes, mind, movement and breath, and ultimately bring all organ functions under the regulation of the subconscious mind.
