Welcome! Sounds like an amazing experience!

Like Miffymog said, morning sessions are best. Sleep a bit earlier and get up a bit earlier so you can do it before having breakfast and going to work. I work 12 hour shifts and manage to get a 1 1/2 hour to 2 hour session before work so it should be a piece of cake for you! The energy and health boost will be worth it.

How come no garlic and onions?

It must be the longest running thread on TDB!

What you can do get the first DVD then finish every session with seated stillness meditation. At least that will help prepare your legs for the seated practices the second DVD afterwards.

Instead of focusing on what makes us lose jing, what if we discuss the best way to create more jing?

Welcome!

Going to cut, paste and edit a comment I made recently for someone else: If you are short on funds I would recommend starting with Flying Phoenix. It is a powerful healing qigong system. The first DVD is $39.95, that’s not too much for the five practices on it. The practices combined with a good seated stillness practice will last you a good few months before you will master them and want to move on to the next DVD, which will be $39.95 too and has six practices. Lets say you spend four months on the first DVD, that will be around $10 a month, not too bad. Eventually down the line you will need training and corrections from Sifu Terry, which can be done over Zoom, either with solo or group lessons, but worry about that later, just focus on the basics first. In the meantime he is very helpful with replying to your questions by email. Sifu Terry also teaches different kung fu forms in his online lessons. Check out the details here if you are interested: https://www.taichimania.com/chikung_catalog.html I would also add that you shouldn’t read too much theory, getting first hand experience from practice is much better. Then things will make more sense when you eventually read.

I hope you manage to find a solution soon! Also I just noticed this hilarious coincidence:

Very wise, please follow your own advice!

It depends on what your goal is @Johndoe

Hi

English is his second language so can forgive him there, but can’t forgive him wasting time trying to learn from Drew’s posts
