Yeah, this topic is ancient, but it's the best one that popped up in my search. I'm going to continue searching for other threads, but post my question on this one.
With seven steps:
Question 1: I'm not sure, but I think that, at times, I accidentally begin with the right foot instead of the left. Is there something to this?
Question 2: After 7 steps, we are to inhale one time focusing on the lower Dantien, exhale focusing on nothing in particular. If we do not complete the full list of exercises (start through 7 steps) should we also do this last breath in focusing on lower dantien exhale focusing on nothing in particular? For example, say I'm doing Joining of Yin and Yang and want to go into Harvesting at that point - should I do the last breathe in thing that would be done after Seven Steps?
Question 3: After The Harmony Of The Universe going into Seven Steps, what do we do with the energy ball we're holding?
Question 4: How long do you do Harvesting Qi if you're only doing a smaller session, of, say 10-15 minutes?
Thanks for your time : )
