  1. What to drink after practice?

    I was just wondering about what you drink after practice,. I used to drink a lot of cold water after my exercises, but after reading Ken Cohen where he says that cold water has negative effect on Qi, I have gone over to drink a cup of tea instead. Do you feel any adverse effect from drinking cold water immediately after? I didn't but now I wait a little bit until I drink water, just to see if there is a difference. //abramelin posted this in the wrong forum. If there is some kind moderator out there that could move this to the taoist discussion. // abramelin

  4. spring equinox

    This is actually the first equinox I have put any thought in that matter. but what I think is the idea within taoism(correct me please if I'm wrong) is to get connected with the flow of nature, and the equinox is a time when the natures Yang energies gets moving, to then culminate in the summer and then move into more Yin in the fall and winter. So my Idea is to get more connected to the spring energies. comments, addition, ideas? I'm just exploring so hopefully someone with experience can explain this better. //abra

  9. introducing myself

    Hi there. I have been a "lurker" of this forum now for a while, reading trough all interesting topics, it will save me from asking unnecessary questions later. I really enjoy the atmosphere here in the taobums forums, and has found this forum to be one of the most positive ones out there. lots of humor (and sex) here. about me: * a Swedish 26 year old male * been practising qi gong for a couple of years now, is it about 5?(time flies) * mostly self learned in the qi gong department, but i have also trained aikido for a while, and that helped me in my cultivation practice. be happy// abramelin
