Fire Dragon Meridian Qigong

Author(s): Zhongxian Wu

Qi Gong

"Fire Dragon Meridian Qigong" is a traditional Chinese Qigong form that embodies the spirit of the rising dragon, an auspicious symbol of transformation in Chinese culture. The form works directly on the meridians, awakening areas of stagnation and bringing the physical and emotional body into a balanced state of well-being. It is the key Qigong form the authors offer to people seeking healing from cancer and other significant or chronic health chellenges. "Fire Dragon Meridian Qigong" implements special visualization and breathing techniques in addition to the movements that imitate sparks arising from a banked fire and swirling upward like a spiraling dragon, generating tremendous inner fire. Stoking the inner fire melts away the 'ice', or the areas of stagnation, blockage and disease residing in the physical, mental, or spiritual body.
This creates pathways of flowing water, allowing the refinement of Jin (essence) and its transformation to 'steam' or Qi (vital energy), refinement of Qi and its transformation to Shen (spirit), and the refinement of Shen to transform it to Emptiness - the wisdom that reunites the spirit to the physical body, and is able to nourish every part of the Self. As well as information about the background of the practice, the book contains a detailed description of the form itself and is fully illustrated.
