I slept for over 10 hours last night, and felt so emotionally and spiritually drained when I woke up today… and if I’m being honest, this whole week was far too exhausting for me to tolerate

I don’t think I’ve managed to cultivate and store enough #OriginalQi in my #LowerDanTian to keep going with #TuNaSiBa yet—at least not every day; this should be no surprise, it IS a synthesis of #Yijinjing #Xisuijing and #Roushu so what is true for them is true for it

So, I decided to take a step back (as I usually do when I push too far), and just completed the #XingyiQigong set for my middle-of-the-day slash effectively-morning #Qigong session; now my coffee is perfection, and I feel alive again

Gotta keep focusing on the fundamentals and not get ahead of myself

I’m noticing an overabundance of #FireQi with this method of regulating the emotional mind, requiring constant balancing throughout the day. Not unexpected. But I do need to keep working on my #WaterQi and #LowerDanTian

I suppose I will have to start #Yijinjing training this fall instead of waiting until next spring
