As far as I know Zhineng is the type of Qigong and the "Wisdom" is nothing more than branding.

If you don't want to spend $104 for the DVD, you can buy the online version for $25 at The Deep Root Center for Spiritual Studies. https://www.thedeeproot.org/store

I'm looking for some reviews of robert peng's yi jin jing 14 week online course. Has anyone gone through the course?
-
Short answer is no. Longer answer below directly from SFQ How to choose your master to go deeper
-
Thanks @tao stillness I'll have a look around and see if I can find it. Is the course you are doing called Longevity Qigong?
-
@tao stillness I'd like to learn more. Have you got a link for the course?
-
In the SFQ system is there any standing meditation? I know there is seated meditation and of course the SFQ moving meditations but I don't see any standing meditation. If there is, could you point me in the right direction. If not, does anyone practice SFQ and Zhan Zhuang, if so how do you do it. One after the other? Separate each practice?
-
Very valid points. You have given me a lot to think about. Thank you. Thanks also for the heads up about sleeping qigong. Again, something to look into.

I am going to contact Eric Isen and book a consultation with him. I go from one qigong system to another and I'd like to stick with one if possible. I was going to give a list of systems that I'm interested in, and at the same time be open to any different suggestions he makes. How much information does he need? If its online lessons, would the url help. If its DVD's would the name of the DVD's help.? So for example if it was Flying Phoenix, would I list FP or would I list the DVD's (Vol1, 2 and 5)? If it was Zhineng Qigong, would I list Zhineng or do do I need to list the specific schools ie Wisdom Healing, Chilel etc?
-
All of these are on my list, and I like all of them. I learned Fragrant Qigong with John Dolic's DVD's and had some interesting email correspondence with him. Pangu Shengong I learned the Moving and Non Moving forms with their correspondence course. I've dabbled with Flying Phoenix. I'm also aware that if I go with FP. Then realistically I would expect to build it up to 40m twice a day. I've heard of sleeping qigong and I have no experience with it. Over the years I have practiced many systems. Hopping from one to another and never really settling on one for a large amount of time. After reading posts on this forum mentioning Eric, I wanted to see if he could diagnose a good system for me to practice.
-
Thank you for your input. I know that ideally I would prefer to practice between 20-30 minutes once or twice a day. I prefer relaxed and healing practices. The systems I was going to run by Eric are all systems I like practicing. The trouble is I do jump from one to another, and I'd rather not mix forms. I'm looking for help in choosing a practice I will commit to for the first 3 months of 2020. So my consultation with Eric would be for (as you wrote in your first post) the mystical backing.
-
As the new year, I've been thinking about what I would like to practice next year. I'm hoping I can get as near a definitive answer as possible to the following question. If I can only practice for 20 minutes a day, maybe some days 20 minutes twice a day, is it worth learning/practicing Flying Phoenix? I know more would be better, and increasing my times would be better, but would I get enough value on 20 minutes once or possibly twice a day.

@Earl Grey Got it. Thanks for taking the time to answer this. Its appreciated.

@Earl Grey Sorry for the confusion, I may not have been as clear as I hoped to be. I'm only referring to the Volume 5 exercises. I have the DVD's and I was referring specifically to the above comment made by Sifu Terry. I went through Volume 5 and couldn't find the answer. If I repeat the sequence (Exercises 1-5) a number of times it would make sense to repeat all the breathing sequences for each of the exercises. My question is would I repeat the breathing sequence if I repeated each exercise a number of times and then moved on to the next exercise? For example: 1. Breathing sequence --> Exercise 1--> Count myself out --> Repeat 3 or 4 times --> Move on to Exercise 2. or 2. Breathing sequence --> Exercise 1--> Repeat 3 or 4 times --> Count myself out --> Move on to Exercise 2
-
Does this also apply to Vol 5 Meditations 1-4 as well? Would I do the breath control sequence and then count myself out for each repetition of meditations 1 - 4 if I chose to do multiple repetitions?
-
I've practiced chi kung for 30 years or so. I've practiced a little of Flying Phoenix Volumes 1 & 2 though not on a consistent basis. I would say I am experienced in chi kung but not in FP. I fancy starting a regular FP practice and I've really been drawn to Vol 5. It also fits in nicely with my time constraints and gives me the opportunity to have longer sessions by repeating the 5 meditations. I genuinely feel that this would be a great way for me to start a regular FP practice. With that being said, is there an issue if I start regular practice with Volume 5?
-
You're welcome @liminal_luke Even though I couldn't find any reviews I have signed up for it. His reputation alone is more than good enough to take a chance on this.
-
Seen that. Thanks. I've got a couple of his courses. I like his style. I like Udemy. They have some really good courses. Check out Vimeo - there are some good courses there as well.
-
Its meant to link to the UK. That's where I live.
-
Looking forward to it. It arrives on Wednesday.
-
@Starjumper The book is now live on Amazon UK. Do you know if this is the latest version? Amazon link
-
Yes, this topic is always alive. It ebbs and flows, jut like life :-) I would certainly be interested in your reply.

Hi @Fa Xin, My question is about step 3 (head) in the NMF. I have been practicing step 3 as a ball of light that completely fills my head, and then I rotate this head shaped ball of light as instructed. Is this correct? Did you learn the Condensed form in person or over skype?
-
@Fa Xin Do you practice the Non-moving form? If so, I've got another question.
