One cycle? Does that mean you are doing this once a week? I would highly suggest an every day approach or more. Think of what healing transformation can occur when you subject yourself to constant blissful healing. I agree with you and commend you for your reluctant to take a pill approach. Doctors these days are too quick to prescribe something to mask the problem rather than go to the core of the problems.

That being said Iam2 has some good points and you are the ultimate judge. Your doctor is your doctor but you are your doctor as well. If that makes any sense. Since there is no emergency then why not put a little focused time into Qigong and see where it can take you. Also, as Anita stated Master Lin is very approachable perhaps seeking his advice on the matter would be very helpful.
