 Hello, our citizens. My name is Chris. I'm a brain education instructor from Rolling Hills, California. Today, we're going to do a kegong practice for heaven, earth, and human. Heaven, earth, and human correlate to our three energy bodies in brain education. So we're going to work to activate and strengthen them. This is the practice that best for strengthening the physical aspects of our body in relation to heaven, earth, and human. So we're going to start by opening our feet about shoulder width. We're going to get a little activation of energy. So bounce to your knees, bounce to your hips. Just get a little vibration to your legs, grab the earth with your feet, fingertips sweeping. Breathe out. Try not release tension through the arms by flicking off the fingertips. Try to dust tension off your body. Good. Use the breath to release. You see the tension release from the neck, from the shoulders, from the chest, and from the back. Find your full range of motion. Now we're going to go up. So reaching towards the heavens. Throw your hands in the sky. Try to touch the heavens with each reach. Find your full range of motion and let go of that stress and tension. Toss it up into the sky. Let the universe take it all away. Jump. And now we're going to come forward. So tossing your hands forward. So throw the stress out. Feel your shoulder blades open. Feel your spine move back as your hands go forward. Let out the stress and tension in the back. Throw it out to your fingertips. Letting go of all that tension. But now we're going to go to the outside. So toss your hands out wide. Good. Feel your chest, your back open. You want to create the circulation, create the stimulation in our body so we feel the energy more. Good job. And slowly come to a stop. Feel the buzzing and tingling in your body. So first we're going to enter the posture for heaven. So we're going to grab your feet about shoulder width, a little bend the knees, tuck your tailbone and you're going to inhale your hands up at your chest. You're going to flip those hands and then you're going to reach up. It's a gentle reach. I'm not stretching for the sky. My shoulders are relaxed. My elbows are relaxed. But my palms are open. My palms are facing the sky. My fingers are pointing towards each other. So I'm reaching up and I relax. So when we take a holding posture, we are filling our body with energy. So try to feel the energy raining into your palms from the universe. Heaven's pouring down. So feel the energy coming up from the feet, coming down from the hands. Your body is filling with energy. Holding the postures allow us to build strength, to create the power to grow our energy and grow our practice. Relax your shoulders. What you might find is a little bit of pain, a little bit of discomfort, a little bit of tension. If you're feeling it in the shoulders, lift your sternum just a little bit. If you're feeling it in your legs, press the earth with your feet, tuck your tailbone till you find that alignment that allows you to find a little bit of peace. Good. You breath in and out. Now we're going to come to our earth posture. So we're just going to straighten our legs. We're going to push our hips back, hinging. And we're going to drop our hands down till they come down to reach for the floor. Your arms are fairly straight, but not locked. Palms are facing the earth, fingers are open again, fingers are pointing at each other again. So I'm going to turn a little bit so you can see my legs are straight, my bottom is hinged back, and my hands are facing the earth. My spine is straight. Don't drop to look at your knees and don't look up at me anymore. Look straight down beyond your fingers. So now this posture, you may start to feel a little bit of tension in the lower back. Now feel the energy coming up from the earth through your feet, through your palms. There's tingling, there's vibration. Temperature is definitely going up. Feel that connection with the earth below you. Your whole body is feeling and charging. And now we're going to come to the human posture. So from here, we're going to get slight bend and drop your bottom. You're going to swing your arms up to the side, embracing the giant tree, bringing your arms in front. Your palms will face your heart, your fingers point towards the center, and give them a little open. Shoulders are relaxed, elbows are just below your hands. Look, feel the connection to the earth through your feet. Feel the crown connecting to the heavens. So after we charge our heaven posture, our earth posture, our human posture, we're going to circulate energy by flowing between them. So we'll connect the breath, and we'll give you a little bit of time to really, really connect to those energies. Relax the shoulders. If the shoulders are tight again, lift the sternum. Press the earth, open the knees, tuck the tailbone. We're constantly looking to adjust the posture to build the strength. Holding postures allow us to alleviate some of the joint pain that comes with life. Good. Now we're going to start to flow. So we'll follow the breath. I'll guide you slowly the first couple of times, and now I'm going to let you go. So as we inhale, we're going to bring our hands in towards our chest. We're going to heaven posture. We're going to flip our hands through the inhale, and the exhale we're going to push into the heavens. So feel that gentle stretch, feel the energy pouring into your hands. When it's time to inhale, we're going to straighten our knees. We're going to slowly lower our hands, pushing your hips. When I get to about my flat back, then I'm going to exhale, extending my hands to the earth. Feel that connection. Good. And now when it's time to inhale, I put a little bend in my knees. I start to swing wide. Inhale brings me up. Exhale will wrap me around the tree. Now with your breath, as you inhale, coming in, looking, exhale up to heaven. As you inhale, dropping the hands, hinging at the hips, straightening the legs, pushing down to the earth. The exhale allows you to settle into the posture well. Good. Inhale, you bend the knees, sweeping up, coming into your human posture. Inhale, exhaling up into heaven. Inhale, straightening the legs, pushing down, coming down to me here. Good. Bending your knees as you inhale, coming up, wrapping around with your breath, inhaling in. Exhale, hinging at the hips, straightening the legs, pushing down to the earth. Inhale, bend the knees, coming up, wrapping around. We're going to go through two more times. Go at your own pace. In brand education, we often refer to these postures, we find our names in Korean. So our heaven posture, we call chan, ji, our human posture, we call in through heaven, earth, and human. Connect the energy of the universe that gives us the breath, gives us the spirit that leads our heart, the earth that gives us the food, the water, the body, and all of humanity. That energy that connects us all, you know, that energy flow and feeling the vibration, whole body is filled with energy. You know, the energy from the heavens coming through your craft, the energy from the earth coming through your soul, the energy of all humanity moving through your arms, through your heart, through your body, rinsing, cleansing, recharging. Two more times, be closer. And settle in through the thing in the breath. Close your eyes. Feel the energy that it's sway you. Feel how all three energy, heaven, earth, and human, have become one. Instruct over us, bring your feet over shoulder width. Put all that energy down into your lower dungeon. Slowly stop. You can go and shake out any heaviness and any tension here. And I want to thank you for joining me for this heaven, earth, and human practice. This is the practice that allows you to really build your physical power so that you can open your mind, open your heart a lot more, and keep growing your practice. So I want to thank you very much.
