Thank you. Even before I started Qigong, I did a little of this inanimate object stuff but now it's stronger and almost immediate. I could really feel the energy from my hands the first time I tried Qigong, sort of a static electicity type of feeling. I found I didn't actually have to help it along by cranking up belief or faith either. As long as I'm not operating from ego, it(Qi) just seems to flow. It's everywhere waiting to be called upon.
