Guest guest Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 Ron, Thanks for the information. I mentioned in another post the 5 healing sounds + Triple Warmer as far I know them. I will admit right here and now, that right now (at present) I know just enough to be dangerous to myself and others around Qigong. I'm like a first grader I've only being doing the drills for about a year. In other areas I'm a master and a teacher but the most I can teach as far as Qigong is in my estimation 1st grade level. I defer to others Rusty, Doc John and obviously your knowledge as well on classic Qigong matters. Energy Psychologies, Energy Medicine, Hypnosis, Huna, RV/RI, Silva, HPE/NS/NLP/DHE, Taoism philosophy, Spiritual Transformational work, I've got a handle on those and yet the specific field of Qigong, I'm at the edge of my experience when I write about it on the list.
