Thanks for your insight and link! I'm going to check out this thread. I'm new to the practice. @SodaChanh said he got energy imbalances from doing S-M, though he didn't specify what / how exactly.

I'm sure it would be beneficial to attend a seminar, but I have little money, and I'm not close to them. I was hoping to find GoT in DVD or video if anyone has it. It's too bad they are no longer available. I'm interested in Jenny Lamb's DVD also... But it seems not available anymore either, not that I can find anyway Thank you!

If you don't mind, can you expand on the above on how SM and Kunlun differs in results over time? I also find the book lacking in detail and vague on practice. I guess I'm still new to SM... I don't really get much spontaneous movement. So, in that regard, there isn't much "to let happen" (not yet anyway). How does ordinary LDT meditation differ from SM if there's not movement happening? Other thank spontaneous movement and the beginning / ending movements in SM, aren't they essentially the same basically? To sink yourself into LDT Hmm, I thought SM was pretty safe from my reading. Can you talk a little about what it caused to happen? "Gift of the Tao is reverse engineered SM so to speak." Are you saying that Gift of the Tao is kind of a way to open up to SM easier? Thanks!

As a new person to both of these systems... They appear pretty similar in overall instructions (relax and put awareness on LDT and just let go and let the body spontaneously do what it does). Although Kunlun has raised heels and arms / hands which help "turn on" the movements, whereas in S-M you cover the LDT with your hands. But my question is... are the outcomes of both the systems similar / the same over time since they are focused on similar areas and spontaneous body movement? Or, do they open the body up in different ways? I haven't done as much S-M as I have done Kunlun. But I notice with Kunlun, holding the hand positions seems to open up the energy between my palms, which also seems to parallel or spread the energy to the channel between my LDT and MDT. I'm not sure if this is intended or not. I also get more spontaneous body movement doing Kunlun as the raised heels get it kickstarted. I guess before I get going too far in one system or another, I would like to know if the outcomes are similar between the 2 systems? Or, I'm completely missing the mark. That way I can choose a system now before getting too involved. for me, I do have health problems (lower back, bladder / kidneys, immune system, digestion, gut health). So this is for healing, but also for developing Qi and spiritual / mental / energetic growth. Thank you!

Hi there! I wish to practice Michael's stuff for health and growth, but I can't find the DVD's that used to be available. All I see is workshops and expensive $600 memberships. I am out of work and have very little money and can't afford this. Does anyone still have these DVD's / videos they want to get rid of or sell? I don't see anything on youtube either. I don't see them online at all. I think I get the gist of stillness-movement from his book. You essentially relax and keep attention / awareness on the LDT and allow your body to move in any way that comes up. Is that pretty much all to it in simple describing? Too me, it looks kind of similar to kunlun in that you let whatever happens in the body to happen (minus the raised ankles and arm / hand placements). I will read up more here on this site to see if I can find out more about it. Gift of the Tao is another thing. I don't understand the movements from the book. Why are the videos / dvd's no longer available for people who don't want to or can't afford to buy a course / membership? If anyone has any info or access to the DVD's, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you!
