So you don't know what qigong is. It is an ancient practice from China that has been around for thousands of years and Traditionally or back in the day it was only taught to the royalty and only taught to the very select few people because People who are able to use qigong not only were they able to heal other people with it, but they were also able to use it in combat and cause cause either Incapacitation you can stop somebody from moving paralyze somebody even stop them from breathing or Possibly even kill somebody with if you have the high enough skill in it but today obviously we don't most people don't focus on the on the combative and on the on the self-defense aspect of it most people focus on the Health aspect, but just to let you know it it can and can be used for self-defense as well not as a Technique but more as a quality that you add to your techniques and more as a quality an attribute that you add to your own Resilience for example your skeletal structure for example your joints Example the speed and coordination of all your different body parts that all adds up to make you a better Person who is income combat of a sports or even just regular sports It will help you to minimize injuries and also speed up recovery from any injuries Okay, so let's continue Make sure you hit the like button.

Okay, so let's get together rub your hands stand up straight or sit up straight Rub your hands like you're putting on Some sanitizer Cleaning your hands with it now start rubbing the hands like this and brush them along the fingers hold the palm Brush each finger.

We're gonna go like follow the bone here brush it upwards like this brush your cheeks backwards brush your cheeks backwards That's your chin Brush it brush your ears go around the ear like this around the ear Besides brush the back of your neck and for the back of the head you brush like this Brush like this It means around and brush like this sound your trap muscles Now continuing down the neck Follow the line down to your shoulders from the front of the shoulder Down the thumb line Is there one on your shoulders Down the thumb line and down the shoulders down the middle finger line remember to breathe and then breathe out Breathe some relaxing breaths as you're doing this the back pinky line Back of the shoulder so you go so you can reach around but behind your shoulder Go to the back a little pinky get a hand Ideally you're doing this with it downwards so it helps the energy sink I'm just raising my hand so you can show which line I'm brushing brush the inside So this is the inside your bicep the forearm and the palm Brush down your armpits triceps and the side of your body and brush your throat Down to your chest throat your chest Middle of the chest down to your belly button and down to your belly down the side of the chest Side of the body again Brush the back your hips Hey, Dave. Welcome. Hey, Sarah. You're welcome Okay, brush your hips all the way behind and the side brush a bum front of the legs side of the legs so what you're doing and just Imagine you're squeezing or just releasing the energy down that channel These ankles and your feet brush the top of the feet like this brush the thumb Underneath the feet side of the feet Brush the ankles and the heel thing on the inner foot Ankles front of the foot side of the foot Other side of the foot underneath your foot your toes and heel Okay I'll shake a little Take deep breaths Like you just came back from a long day of work and you just like oh just like Collapse on the couch, but you don't want to collapse you want to keep the structure and you use the same kind of same kind of a breath like oh Do that like you just relaxed a ton. I just dropped the weights off your shoulders But then don't collapse your structure keep the structure while doing that So so you feel lighter already just by doing that so Yeah, and you feel more relaxed like Like drop the weight Feel all your meat like your muscles everything around your bones. Just drop From the structure of your skeleton Like that okay now we do a little bit of the we call it the padding or the Or the commercial anyway, so Patty Go along the same lines that we did before Lightly on their face lightly on the head lightly on the back of the head Lightly on the chin and the jaw Lightly on this on the neck the back of the neck Just use your fingertips don't need to be too hard on the sensitive spots Okay Now on the shoulder you can do a little harder Keep a nice structure your legs Like a little bit wider than shoulder width and start striking downwards and brushing down those channels And you should have a very relaxed and whip like hand and relax, but heavy heavy Heavy but relax. Okay That's why it sounds like such a big smack Because it's actually quite heavy So one way to practice the heaviness is just put your hands in front of you and just let them drop to your thighs But don't actually put add anything don't add any muscle any muscle. Just let the gravity or the weight of your hands You know just pull your hands down by itself though So I'm not actually like putting any energy in I'm just letting the weight and the gravity Bit of work So just like a put it there and then you want to relax as fast as possible That's the that's the key is to how fast you can relax Okay, exactly the same thing So in in internal power a Lot of it is not how hard you can hit and how much force you can put is how fast you can only relax how fast can you relax and and then Create motion. That's the key one of the keys to Generating functional Internal power. Okay, where were we? So we're striking so do the middle now if it hurts It's two reasons if you're hitting yourself and it hurts It's either gonna hurt your hand or it's gonna hurt your body right or it starts to sting if it hurts your hand That means your body iron or your structure in your body is better or your body is more relaxed than your hand If a if your body hurts that means your hand has more structure and has more iron So to speak iron and has more relaxation. Okay, so the key is you have one have a balance Okay, so you feel like oh that hit I can feel it going through my body and just relax that part of your body more Keep that structure. I keep that alignment Let the meat Hang off from your from your bones and then and then do it again And now I feel my hand hurts more to do more my hand hurts more than my body. That means you doing it properly So the idea is you want to keep increasing the relaxation of every part of your body So that when you smack something it's harder and also when you get hits you don't get hit You don't get hurt as much only good conditioning if you do any combative sports, you know, you get hit in the body quite a lot Right you can do this to increase your Your resilience in your to take the body shots, right? So, you know, the traditional they tell you to do this right Like like do a crunch And that works to an extent, but this is a little bit differently. It's about actually you're relaxing and you stretching out Stretching out this part, so you're actually very tall, you know like Muay Thai They stand very tall. They don't do like this To take the body shots. They actually stand taller reason you guys imagine that This is like a drum, you know a drum to do to do and the drum has a skin on top of it. Now if you Loosen up the drum head, then it won't make any sound, right? We just go black but then you tighten the skin on top of this drum then you get a hit Pat pat then you get a sound right because the the drum skin is actually bouncing or reflecting the Reflecting the hit the drum stick hit on it to make a sound so that this imagine this is your drum So if you're like this, it's not going to reflect any of the impact by these tightened up Basically lengthen this up. This becomes like a drum skin and then it's more like it's better for reflecting the Hit back, but then you have to train this Psychologically because usually when somebody goes like this, I'm gonna do your body people who usually go ah, don't hit me in the body right they They do the fetal position So it takes a little bit training to just stand there straight and straighten this up and And then see you can hear the difference, right? If I go like this You hear that? It's a lower sound and it actually hurts more but if I straighten up and I tighten this up If you actually smack you feel I mean you can hear it's got a higher pitch And I can feel it in my hand. It's reflecting it back. Anyway, that's just the concept of why we stand up straight, okay? So keep doing that Question is it possible to put your frequencies on Apple music? No because our frequencies are you know, some of them are quite quite expensive and Apple music doesn't allow us to charge that kind of money for the for the Frequencies possibly some of our lower lower end frequencies or some of the free ones we can put on there Yeah Right now. Yeah, we're working on something like that. I don't know what what I have somebody even working on the frequencies and Distributed to different places. I don't know What's the progress on that right now, I'll check it on a check on that do my legs smacking Focusing on the channel that I'm developing and just Visualizing the energy going down my legs list as I'm smacking it the five minutes left Okay, so it's good for smacking now you can do this partner stomps So as you really want to feel the impact on the bottom of the feet now next thing is Let's work on Gathering she energy so imagine you're holding this tree Or a bell or a cauldron the giant cauldron and notice that my spine here is pretty straight, okay? and then my head is suspended from a String so everything is kind of hanging down hanging down from the head My chin is not high and not low. It's kind of straightforward You know some people say you tuck your chin a lot, but actually you want to do that You wanted to be maybe even slightly up Slightly upwards but not too much I would say like slightly upwards Slightly upwards just imagine that These two points are being pulled up and your hands are loose your elbows are relaxed Your shoulders are relaxed Everything is just hanging there and for some people it might be tiring just to do this And hold this for five minutes But the key is to relax into the position Take deep breath and then sink everything and melt everything Hey Sarah, I truly do love cheek oils. Thanks so much. I need this You're welcome. Now if you're doing this probably you should feel your hands getting hotter Or you might feel some tingly sensations or if your fingertips When your palms your hands the key is to have your hands relax. Okay, so this is relaxed hand This is not relaxed hand. This is open hand when you open your hand actually stretches it out and tense is your hand But and this is not a relaxed hand either because they're clenching it up. So it's somewhere in between Can't relax your hand fingers are just bent just hanging there everything's just hanging just hanging like that Okay, maybe a little bit open just open it up and then relax like this and you should feel some heat in your fingers or In your palms who here feels that you're welcome. This is power. Thank you David. You're welcome So breathe and then every but every breath. I want you to melt everything more Melt melt melt melt your hands melt your elbows. They keep the structure Now you feel like tension if you feel tension. Let's say your shoulders are getting tired, right? That's how it is. Just relax. Just let them go wiggle it around Massage a little bit. Move your neck just loosen it up and start it over So take a deep breath and then relax into that position Just relax more relax more relax more and Just scan every body part start relaxing your face Relax your face relax your ears Relax your neck relax your shoulders relax your triceps biceps and elbows Relax your forearms relax your wrist or just scan one body part of the time And we would say relax like just imagine you're breathing air into there and then when you breathe out It's just sinking down and releasing now your chest Imagine you're breathing in that bear into it and then when you breathe out just relax just mention that the You're just emptying and clearing out that part of your body like upper back Tommy or you mean your solar plexus Middle back your belly lower back front of the hips Side of the hips both sides back of the hips Just do one body part by part of the time your bum the thighs in front of the thighs Now you feel tension once again start over loosen up a bit Wiggle around And start over now. We have the thighs to go thighs relax front of the thighs Relax both sides of the thighs relax back of the thighs Relax the knees Relax the knees and more relax your shins relax your calves Relax your ankles Relax your feet top of the feet Relax each toe all the toes relax Relax your heel So when I say relax imagine it's just melting melting into the ground and relax the entire bottom of the foot imagine it's spreading and just melting into the ground About to do some chigo myself good on you awesome good rainbow body wisdom Okay, now we did a full body now I want you to with each breath start from the top and in one whole breath We're going to relax from the top of the body through your body down to the bottom of the feet and you can actually guide like this so you take a deep breath And as your hand comes down each part of your body is kind of relaxing in sequence like this relax relax Relax your chest now your toy. So now your body and your hips and bum They said let your hands guide the relaxation down like you're washing Like you've got this energy here in the waterfall and just slowly washing Melting pouring Throughout your whole body as you're guiding it with your hands One breath to take a deep breath as you come up By the way, you guys like the background Sound and nature sounds you like this better or you just want music Keep those likes coming in Now at this point you should start feel really heavy and that's a good thing The body should feel heavy And you feel like you can just sit there in that position. Okay, if your legs are getting tired just stand up again You sit it out and get back to that position So the goal is to be able to kind of sit there in that position as if you're floating Under water as your whole body is underwater right now You want to feel weightless But at the same time feel heavy And weightless at the same time. It's kind of so it's kind of like you're being pulled in two directions There's an energy that is pulling you upwards and then there's an energy which that's pulling you downwards at the same time And you're just kind of suspended there Just like when you're underwater right because in the other one the water your body tends to float up But there is also gravity happening at the same time. So you're being pulled in two directions So every part of your body is being pulled in two directions Up and down at the same time and you may be surprised if you've got this right You can stand there for quite a long time without getting tired And you're gonna feel very calm and centered and this is one form of meditation You can call it standing meditation right and the key is I mean you can do this without standing out or sitting down but What happens when you do this standing is because you are calming and centering your body actually Calms and centers your mind because your mind and body are connected So if you calm the mind it'll calm the body you calm the body you calm the mind They're not separate So you see you're calming and relaxing and you're centering the body now your mind automatically centered and calm So some people they sit They sit down and they meditate and they can't center and they they can't calm themselves because Well, you're only doing one half or a part of it You're only just doing your mind But if you do it with your body too, it just makes it easier because now you have another tool That can help you calm and center Another thing you want to add is now start to add a little smile and when you breathe in I want you to imagine It's really loving auspicious Healing bright whatever the highest frequency you can think of And inhale it as you inhale you want to absorb it with your whole body And then smile a little bit and then relax and then just Let it let yourself fade in that energy So breathe in smile a little bit Imagine all the loving energy and beneficial for you success and abundance love joy gratitude Breathe out and just sit there and enjoy That energy that is around your body right now Okay, time's up Now we're going to hold hold that thought hold that energy and now it's gathering it back into your Dantean your stomach So just put your awareness back there Back here and if you just grab this imagine you're sucking all that energy from around your body into that area Okay, so that's all You don't like the noise. Okay next time I'll probably do something different. Um All right, thanks for coming and I'll probably be back Saturday or sunday Okay, see you guys later
