At last the wedding day has arrived for Ryan & Faye. Monsignor Doyle is about to give the wedding Mass.         The music is starting and heads are turning to see the stunning young bride. The exchange of wedding vows will happen in the next few minutes. I am at Saint Rose Catholic Church in Miami, Florida. It’s a blessing to be here to celebrate this holy event.

On my way to the church, I ran into Faye’s cousin. We met a few times over the years. He’s a martial artist, well trained and disciplined in his art and dedicated to his practice. I asked if he was doing any internal training and he said.

“I know I should be, but am not.”

Big mistake dude! I am around 30 years his senior and no kidding we look around the same age. I can tell you why. I don’t know him very well but I know he practices a hard form. I am sure he gets a buzz from it, feels lots of juice and surges of energy. Although he is geeked up for now it won’t last.                                                                     He’s way too yang and burning himself out without even consciously realizing it. That much yang energy is only OK when you’re young but if you don’t cultivate yin you’ll be old before your time.

All of the old masters practice an internalform Qi Gong, Nei Gong, or Shen Gong it maybe under another         name if Japanese, Korean or Philippinebut every form has some kind of internal practice.

Basically Yang is fire and Yin is water. If you continually build your yang energy you will dry up the yin, then you’re in big trouble. The organs get too much heat and they dry up and so do you. Your body loses flexibility, the tendons contract and your joints will start to ache your skin gets old and so do you. There not a day when some martial artist comes into my office and complains of pain.

Doc. “I did Karate or Kung-Fu for years and now everything hurts, can you help me”?

They never practiced any internal work and they always got as yang as they could taking hot yang formulas over training to stay geeked up and now they are paying for it.

Well guys and gals it’s not too late to recover and start feeding like you were young again.

When they come into the office I start them with a special diet, yin nourishing tonics and teaching them the secrets of internal work. Most centers don’t teach it to their students for a few reasons; either they don’t know it or they hold information back from the student to keep the edge for themselves.                                                                 The internal exercises like the Recharging Qi Gong ones are the opposite of external exercise.                         External exercises like kung-fu, karate, boxing and wrestling often deplete the body and the internal organs.  This causes premature aging illness and loss of Qi.                                                                                                            There is a saying that I heard many years ago. ‘If you train externally you must train internally, but if you train internally you don’t need to train externally”.

I created the Recharging Qi Gong program and teach the members of the Qi Gong Inner Circle an on-going program to keep them as young and powerful as possible. If you’re a martial artist, a weight lifter, swimmer, runner, boxer, dancer or just someone that’s wants to retain your youth and health join me and the members that are getting younger as they practice. www.RechargingQigong.com
