Guest guest Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 Since an important foundation theory of the martial arts is the importance of posture and breathing in blockage of the meridians many books alude to these issues. Dr. Yang-Ming often referes to these issues of openeing the meridians through movement, breathing, and posture in his books.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 Yes MCM, Unblocking the meridians using posture, breathing and movement falls into the realm of Qigong. This topic can't be discussed on this forum and another group was set up to deal with it. Dr Yangs book is good.....called The Root of Chinese Qigong. For a begnnner I'd also recommend any of Daniel Reid's books...especially the one called " The Complete Guide to Chi Gung " Kind regards Dermot - <vinod3x3 <Chinese Medicine > Wednesday, December 01, 2004 8:00 PM Dr. Yang-Ming and merdian blockage > > > > Since an important foundation theory of the martial arts is the > importance of posture and breathing in blockage of the meridians many > books alude to these issues.

Using posture and movement in diagnosing channel conditions, especially sinew channels, is most definitely within the scope of CM and CCM, though vanilla TCM training doesn't touch on it much. Martial arts masters are traditionally also masters in medicine. Framing the issue as exclusively gigong, and hence banishing it from this forum -- is this a way of hiding, running from ignorance? Not meant to offend, but the TCM penchant towards the dogmatic here is getting out of hand, IMNSHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 Chris, I'm not running or hiding from anything. I voted to keep it as a topic within this forum - but the majority didn't.
