Time-Oriented Practice Methods of Daoism Qi Gong --- 24 Qi Sitting Qi Gong

Time-Oriented Practice Methods of Daoism Qigong was developed by the famous Daoism Qi Gong Master Chen Dan (Chen Xiyi, 871-989), who lived for 118 years. During his old ages, according to his experience of practicing Daoism Qi Gong over years, he created this Qi Gong practice method on the basis of natural laws and traditional Chinese medical theories, such as heavenly stems, earthly branches, 12 months in a year, 24 solar terms, the laws of interconsuming and supporting relationship of yin and yang in different periods of a day in combination with the change of internal Qi in the meridians and reservoirs by selecting 24 kinds of movements. It already has a history of over one thousand years.

Besides, the opening and closing of the meridians and the flow of qi also change with time. With biological clock of body and simultaneous practice of heaven and earth as a leading theory, Time-Oriented Qi Gong Practice Methods are used to collect the energy from heaven, earth and nature to achieve the effect of regulating Qi in the body. This practice can regulate yin and yang of the body to meet the change of yin and yang in nature aiming at maintaining a harmonious relation between the heaven, earth and human.
