I was doing the form in my living room and I could sense my body lying on the sofa behind me. When resting I usually lie down on the sofa. I am not sure how to interpret this? 😁 So I did the form again, very slow and in the last move where the hands move down in front of you it was as if seeing life as a movie being winded back and I was there in a big space. How have you been experiencing FP lately? Hi SodaChanh, Yes, any combination of practice FP meds.--and especially the FP Long Form--can put you right out of time. Meaning that your energized and very relaxed mind can sometimes "remember" where your energy has been...or other memories can float up into awareness. Your state of consciousness after you finished your third round sounds sublime. I was in L.A. and Hong Kong for a total of 6 weeks starting on Oct. 8 and I was doing 2 rounds of the Long Form each day to maintain minimum balance and functionality. It didn't help my jetlag or sleep deprivation from too much work. So I had to fall back to some heavy-duty Tao Tan Pai Yogas (which I've done since 1974) to replace lost sleep and recover from jetlag. But the intensity of the trip due to my busy schedule kept me from getting getting de-jetlagged in HK. I was always on L.A. time when I was in Hong Long. And the jetlag from flying east only got compounded (worse) on the flight from HK back to LA. But once back in the States, I finally did allow myself to get adequate sleep fully recovered. All that is to say that, as I stated in early years, GM Doo Wai told me--and I've proven it to be true time and time again--that FP Qigong requires normal restful sleep in order for it to impart its health, immunity, longevity, and intelligence benefits. But in times of stress, FP practice will at least keep you from cracking up physically or emotionally. It induces and maintains allostasis very nicely and sublimely. Enjoy your practice, SC!

So I've picked up Flying Phoenix to cure my issues, but even while doing it I get spontaneous qigong. What would Mr.Dunn @zen-bearrecommend for this case? Am I incompatible with the system or just allow it to go on as is? Thank you. Hello tianzhang, I had to look up what you condition is. What do you mean precisely when you say you "get spontaneous qigong"? What specific FP meditations are you doing (and for how long) that cause what call the "spontaneous qigong"? Is it uncomfortable or painful and put you in a worse way than before practicing? Once you provide some more info, I may be able to provide adjustments to improve your experience of FP.
