Feeling your Ki:
First, you must know that your ki is flowing through you at all times. You must believe that it is really there. If you
don't believe, you will never be capable of using ki. First, start meditating. Make sure you are doing the ki breathing exercise
given above. Then, focus completely on your Tan Tien. Realize that you ki is stored there and focus on it. Visualize it starting
to glow. You might start to feel tingly at this point, that is your ki. Try to concentrate completely on the ki. Now, tell
the ki to move to your hands. Visualize it moving to your hands. Tell it in your mind to go to your hands. If you can't get
it, try focusing on your hands. It should go there. Now try sending to to every spot in your body. You definately need to
master this technique before going on. It might take you a week or two, or maybe even a few days.
Controlling your ki: Now you will learn how to move your ki to different areas of your body. This is a great practice for
those who are just starting out. This will give you a good feel for visualizing, make your will power stronger, and it will
give you a good idea of what your ki feels like. Now to start. Close your eyes, and concentrate on the fact that your ki is
flowing around inside all of your chakras(or just all through your body if you don't know about chakras yet)and inside of
your dan tien. Now, pick a body part that you would like to move your ki to. For example, we'll start out with your hand.
Now, start to visualize your ki moving and flowing smoothly into your hand. You can picture it one of three ways. The first
way, you can visualize it coming from your dan tien, flowing up into your chest, down your arm, and into your hand. The second
way is to visualize it flowing from your dan tien, out of your body, through the air, and back into your hand. The third way,
is to just picture your hands starting to glow because of the ki you put in them. If you feel anything such as warmth, tingling,
electric feeling, magnetic feeling or coolness, you have just moved your ki. Practice this technique until you can do it easily,
and visuaization is no problem for you. A good way to practice this technique is to move your ki all around your whole body.
Like hand, forearm, bicep, chest, bicep, forearm, hand, leg, foot, leg, foot. Do that until you can move it around your whole
body pretty quickly, then everything will be much easier for you later
