painfull ming men

[aku]

Hello everyone,

the reason Im posting here is that my ming men is painfull when the wether is becoming colder

How I know that?

Well,Im a dds and an acupuncturists.But my knowledge is limited because I live in Montenegro,an small country on Balkan peninsula.My origin is from small fishermans village,and,thanks to my parents extreme effort,I was able to finish a colledge.Then I had to work hard to repay and help my family.

Hard work took the tool on my health.Also,my genetic code is about average,in some aspects less.

Im becoming more and more easily tired.

My mingmen is painfull that much whole lower back is sore,even today in slight drop of temperature.

Please advise how to srenghten my mingmen.

Thank you...

There might be more than one mingmen depending from what perspective you are looking for (Yang, J-M), but I'm guessing you mean Gv-4. I don't have experience with particular points to date, but maybe you can be more specific about symptoms and what role you think the Gv-4 plays in this.

 

Have you seen a doctor about your lower back soreness? could be a good idea just to rule out other potential causes, such as posture, ergonomics etc.

 

Tiredness could mean different things. Short of breath? Feeling bodily weakness? Mood?

If you are clear about the symptoms you might have a starting point to trying something over time and seeing whether it helps.

 

I wish I could offer more...

good luck

Yes,I meant Gv-4 as a mingmen.Can you be more specific what other ming men are present in the body?

Well,being a doctor myself,I eliminated other physical factors.Also,When I apply heat on Gv-4 pain on my lower back diminishes.

Some exercises help also.The 8 precious exercises always reduce sorenes in about 80 percent.

Ocassionally I do Tai chi Sun stule for health which I learned from Dr.Paul Lam after I bought his online program.

I want to live in good health.Everything I know is not enough.

Earlier in My life I use to smoke, but menage to quit using acupuncture on my L-7(Lieque) point and a few ear lob points.

Also,I use occasionally Do-in tapping and it helps too.

Howewer,all this tehniques helps temporarily and it frustrates me.

in Jwing-Ming Yang's book he mentions Gv-4 mingmen as "located on the lower back between L2 and L3...sometimes it means the two kidneys in Qigong society...[in] Chinese martial arts, Mingmen means the area between the shoulder blades" p.364, Qigong Meditation Embryonic Breathing.

 

and again I'm not sure what kind of "tired" you mean. I have heard about how others receive temporary relief from some discipline which goes away when they stop, but I have no experience with that myself.

This is very interesting about mingmen between shoulder blades.almost identical explanation is in Barbara Brenans book-The healing heands-where she describes chakras opening.For the second chakra-Shvadistana.

Well,regular chakras opening,or at least Muladhara and Svadistana should remove tiredness.

My basic problem is lack of will to do everyday exercises.Some exercises are pleasant,some are not.

It may be the problem that all humans have-how to organise life to live in peace,health and harmony with self,others and nature.

Will be vary helpful for me to hear from masters of tai chi,chi gong and other arts of energy cultivations, how to make daily routine.

Welcome!

 

Try reading the book Zhuan Falun and then the five exercises of Falun Dafa. It is all free of charge and will give tremendous health benefits in my opinion:
