I do it barefoot, standing wide on the floor of my room since I live in the city proper and 2 parks are 10-15 minutes away by walking. I could now feel the energy in my arms, fingers, legs, including energy contracting in the middle of the soles of my feet whenever I’m in step two of the exercise (affirmations).

Man I’m excited to see how this extra energy will impact gains, I’m about to do it in a bit…

How do you breath though? do you breathe through your chest or your stomach? lol

Either works I think… Chest breathing works for me. I haven’t learned how ti stomach breathe yet, but l heard that stomach breathing is ultimately better

True, Imma do it twice today so I’ll try them both!

Is it a bad idea to do it right before bed? It’s already 7:47 pm and I haven’t tried it yet but I want to get in two sessions before bed

I usually do it before bed and it’s fine… though i have bad insomnia so I don’t know whether the energy from the exercise is affecting my sleep or not, Try doing it before bed and see. Sorry i’m not very helpful :frowning:

Yeah that’s what I was thinking about lol no worries, I can handle energizing fields in my sleep so I don’t think it’ll be a big issue

No man! You’ve been very helpful, Thank you!

I’m used to belly breathing which I read from Qigong experts years ago. I’m comfortable doing this exercise breathing from my stomach since I think it targets the Dan Tien, although using your lungs/chest for breathing is still okay IMO.

So do you think it’s best to do it through the stomach?

Yes, I think this will lead to optimal results in the exercise.

Ohhh… @_OM … you’ve created a monster! I love it bro! My feet and arm went numb is that normal? Haha I feel really light and rejuvenated/refreshed! I only went for about 70 breaths because my arms got really tired lol

Awesome. :smiley:

That’s normal. You can put your arms down and continue the exercise if you like.
