I've been studying a number of books and Internet resources about the
subject of the Chinese Five Elements Theory. The Five Elements are more
often referred to as the Five: Movers, Energies, Transformations,
Phases, Powers and Forces. The Five Energies are Wood, Fire, Earth,
Metal and Water.
I prepared a brief 2 page document about a gentle five movement Qigong
set based on the Five Elements. The document is titled: The Five Elements Qigong and Internal Training Methods.
It will be used by our Valley Spirit Qigong Study Group in Red Bluff,
California. It is a read only PDF document. The "Internal Training
Methods" refer to visualizations, meditations, Taoist readings, mystical
practices, and feng shui that will be discussed in our Study
Group; and which are only hinted at in the brief list of correspondences
under each of the Five Elements.
I highly recommend the new book by Dr. Steven Liu and Jonathan Blank
called "Secrets of the Dragon Gate: Taoist Practices for Health, Wealth,
and the Art of Sexual Yoga." The variety of creative practices and
methods for health and well being are very useful and explained
clearly.
