HEALING YOURSELF with Chi (Qi) - USE YOUR OWN ENERGY

Cleansing and healing with Mental energy -

The Chinese call it Chi - in other parts of the world it has similar sounding names.

Sound like hard work? - not at all ! and the body and mind feel clean and focused afterwards.

How often have you had a sore shoulder from sitting too long at the computer - or a painful muscle in the back from lifting something heavy.  We reach around and rub the painful spot until it feels looser and better.  
When it comes to our inner body pains, organs etc. what to do (ke garne)
We take a pill or rush off to the doctor -
Instead, calm down, don't panic, let the body heal itself, and to help it along with the healing, sit quietly and do some mental healing using your own energy.

Sit in a quiet place - Relax - Empty the mind of all distracting thoughts. Focus on Healing and Peace
Find your energy ball or Chi  by closing your eyes.   Then in the 'eye of the mind', glance from left to right. Imagine a ball being bounced from left eye to right eye. You will perceive a feeling of something more solid moving from left to right and not just the muscle action of the eye.  It can feel like a fuzzy ball of energy that can be moved at your will throughout the body.
This ball of energy can be taken to any part of the body to be  moved over the painful spot wherever it is until the pain disappears.
This movement of the energy takes practise.

Begin by moving the ball of energy from eye to eye and then circle it around the back of the head full circle and then round and round moving slowly upwards or downwards towards the neck and shoulders. (As if you were winding a bandage around the head and working downwards)
Sometimes you will loose the feeling of energy and have to begin again.  With time you will be able to start with the energy in any part of the body and not begin at the eyes.
At times the energy will feel more comfortable and flowing, circling the torso or head, but as you work along the body it will feel more comfortable to reverse direction or flow the energy in a criss-cross pattern.  
I find this criss-cross pattern particularly in the legs. 
It wont matter the pattern of using your healing energy - there are no rules.
In soothing a headache, I circle around and round the head from top of head to jaw line and back again, slowly - using the energy to smooth away the pain and almost (paint it out)
The best way to do this is to get used to moving the energy around the body and be practised at it before a pain arrives.  Then when you do get a headache or other inner pain, you will be able to immediately and with ease, go to the stress point and heal it.

Love, Peace and Healing to you
