It’s such a joy to be able to read about this subject in such detail and it certainly puts Qi and Meridians in to perspective, I am dealing with some meridian blockages just now, I managed to eliminate and clear one issue on my very first professional live class, however since then I have brought old wounds and related pain to the surface and because of this I am seeking to expand my knowledge. I have also read about this topic several times before in books and in various other online information and resource sites. I do believe that Qigong is the ultimate self healing method for clearing energy blockages which could be causing pain or discomfort in the body, however with that said Qigong has had an overall tremendous effect on my physical, mental and emotional well being too. I have experienced excellent results with Qigong just as many people have but my biggest challenge right now is to make it a daily habit and not just something to do every once in a while. Thank you for your great insights and wisdom on this topic.

Thanks for the great post. What is the difference between the sinew channels and the primary 12 meridians? In your Qigong which ones are you working on?

Thanks for this! This is exactly the kind of article I would like to see more of! I suspect I am not the only one out there who likes to know what is going on under the hood, and who wants to understand the connections between qigong, Chinese medicine, acupuncture, philosophy and more, so that a total picture emerges. Whenever I read a set of instructions on how to do qigong, I always want to understand its precise energetic effects, and this information is usually not provided. I think it helps a lot to develop sensitivity if you know that, for instance, lifting the sky affects the liver – you get the sensation by doing the exercise, and you internally absorb what it feels like to work with that meridian. I would also like to see articles on how to resolve severe issues like qigong sickness – what steps were taken in specific cases? Thank you again for providing outstanding information.

Hello Sifu Anthony,

Yes!, Yes!, Yes! Would really be interested in reading more. However, I think this should be another course, Qigong 301. This could cover the meridians, the governing vessels and flowing into the small universe. This is so helpful in understanding the ins and outs of qigongs.

Enjoyed the blog.

By the way, how is the book coming along? Are you getting closer to a release date?

In reply to Éamon Ó Ceallaigh.

Thanks for the kind words!

My blog now has over 3 books worth of material…so you’re right that it may take you a bit of time to get through it all!

I’ve just finished reading your blog and found it very interesting. I practice Tai Chi Chuan and Qigong. I am also nearly qualified as a Bio-energy therapist. What I find fascinating about your blog is the way you inter link all.
The blog is so concise with many side roads on related articles that it is going to take me some time to read it all. That being said I’m really looking forward to it and when finished, I’ll definitely check out some of your courses.

Thank you for this Sifu Anthony.
Can I suggest that in addition to anything you add here, people are maybe also pointed towards some of the really useful resources your wife has put on her blog
http://www.doctorakemi.com/blog/

I’m guessing that between you, you can cover the detail of both individual meridians and also of the 5 elements (started but not yet complete) in a way that complements each other and gives a wide & full understanding to students at a pace that is comfortable to them.

Great content, and as always, so informative and clear! I was actually mentioning this blog to my wife the other day and expressed my sadness at a lack of fresh content, so this was a nice coincidence!

Here’s some ideas to possibly talk about next. What’s the relationship between internal strength and the meridians? Can qi flow from one meridian to the next without traversing the ends of the meridians? Does shen flow through the meridians the same way that qi does? What’s the relationship between the meridians and the 5 spirits? And perhaps some more information on spiritual qigong. Hope these questions turn gears! Thank you sifu! 😀
