Tai chi, yoga, chi kung, help open the energy channels of the feet that feed earth energy to the energy centers of the torso.
Turn Your Senses Inward
Constantly looking outward, Exhausts the eyes and liver. Over-reaching to listen,
Exhausts the ears and kidneys. Eating too much numbs the tongue, And burdens the stomach and spleen.
Compulsive thinking of past and future Will drive a person crazy.
An unquenchable desire for more
Will break the heart.
Therefore, the alchemist turns his senses inward. He feels the ebb and flow of creation
But maintains his center.
