Gallen,
Thanks! Good to know that I am on the right track. Movements for the active exercises become more natural now. When you said "energy point" on the palm and foot, are they similar to the seven level energy channels mentioned in the Seven Steps?
I was just thinking about learning how to send energy to another person; like helping the other person to feel more relax or getting a "distant massage". I will practice to use my mind to direct the qi. I tried that this morning for myself. Hip bones were feeling stiff and I just think about the qi moving to that area. It worked pretty well.
Of course for now, the body is still more energetic after a full set of active exercise.
