The best practice is by the ocean or in the woods.<br /> I may not have time every day to do everything in that sequence, and may have to break it up occasionally. Hopefully getting Bagua in once a week later at the Dojo if possible, between partner training.Dojo Rathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12057645566330892415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201222618566180765.post-32988713763683968942010-03-25T19:30:34.830-07:002010-03-25T19:30:34.830-07:00Awesome!

But to practice specific movements which have been passed down through legitimate masters for a cultivation of an inner power many consider real, sounds pretty cool, nei gung. I've been incorporating more quiet seiza in my life now, and trying to get to a consistent spot where true effects (or non effects) can be felt after 100 days. Good luck going inside.Zacky Chanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17174486813298415578noreply@blogger.com
