fyi - I've now attended two extended workshops with Lam and have been priveleged to watch him perform his martial arts once (apparently a privilege that very few people have enjoyed, so I feel quite honored in that respect). He's a master of them all, including Bagua. So, please dispell the impression that he does nothing but standing practices.
However, he'd tell you that the static practice is the root of the dynamic arts. And if he had to sacrifice one for the other, there's no question which one he'd retain. He basically said as much.
The most advanced two-legged posture I've experienced with him is the yiquan dragon stance, not something you should do without instruction, because you won't do it right:

Got a link?
no, I can't find that particular flim, sorry. It wasn't that fascinating, but they visited a few of those place where roads have been diverted and big stone formations where the gnomes live. There was an Icelandic guide along with them explaining the stories. It was shown after this, which actually is quite a spectactular documentary in its own right, but in German:

Sorry, no solid diagnosis here and if it were only the mop feeling, I would mention qi sensations I've had in the past which abate with time. But with intense eye and headaches, I'm thinking you might need to see a doctor.
Have you ever had migraines?

Oozing sarcasm out of every pore in your skin is in fact a poor tactic if you're trying to convince anyone of your integrity.

There was a travel report on tv here a few weeks ago that focussed on the gnomes and their homes throughout Iceland. That was a good watch!

Perhaps pay closer attention to and cherish more the aural perceptions. Hearing is generally a more profound sense than vision.

@corpus - thank you for sharing your experiences, you're quite possibly the first to pique my curiosity about the book. I'm glad you found something useful in it.
The breathe work you describe isn't anything exotic or esoteric, and certainly not limited to any one school. How are you planning to advance along the path?

Sounds like you've found your calling, Flo, I'm happy for you :-)
Could you please elaborate on this one, I honestly can't make heads or tails of it, but hamstrings are an issue with me, thanks:
10. squats with an emphasis on slightly kicking back with the hamstrings. learn to find the hamstring engagement and then sit with it

let's hope that is not the case. as far as being on a "roadmap to be banned"
He wrote essentially that. I believe he's going to continue baiting until he catches something big. Just to prove a point, I guess.

Or I guess we could ban all Mo Pai and Buddhist discussion and maybe not even need mods anymore

Of course I don't know that for certain but I know the deep chasm of guilt that permeates the WEST German consciousness and a world that will never allow the reich to be forgotten. WEST Germany is like a lodestone of guilt. If anyone is going to over compensate for past actions, and represent European culture in the guilt Olympics it's the poor old Germans. It seems to me the only pride is in manufacturing things and being efficient, national pride seems verboten.
something for you to chew on there. The East never suffered the ailment.

no you didn't. You just tapped into something that confirmed your beliefs, and it felt good.
