I found this discussion fascinating. When I tried SFQ for the first time last October I recall the healer I was seeing at that time being concerned that there was too mcuh emphasis on the lower Dantian. Actually I felt intuitively that that was where I needed energy at that time. Furthermore i was impressed by the way that SFQ circulates qi from one place to another - very obviously in the seven steps but also in the small universe meditation. Now I doscover from Gallen that there are three'biggies' and I think actually that was my healers concern. Possibly she puts more emphasis on heart and middle eye chakras and is possibly a little wary of 'wild energy' in the lower dantien because in my case at least it seemed to cause how shall we say the crap to hit the fan.
Incidentally people on this forum obviously read about qigong. Can anybody recommend a suitable book to read?
