Balancing Overall Energy – ‘Single Fish’

When our overall health is good and there are no major energy imbalances, we should still practice the ‘Single Fish’ to maintain good stamina and energy levels, by regulating the body’s Yin and Yang balance. This palm position should be practiced when all meridians are free of symptoms. Long-term practice will result in a strong body, extraordinary force and increased sensory awareness. The energy located in the abdomen (Dantian) is developed and increased, sustaining the entire body.

Releasing Excessive Energy Overall – ‘Seven Stars’
