releasing stagnant physical energy: why it's so important * 1
    #18806947 - 09/06/13 10:51 AM (10 years, 5 months ago)

this year i've come to realize how undeniably important it is to get your energy moving around physically....it's so incredibly important to well being.

a good example is if you work in an office like i do. you just sit there, your body doesn't get to move much. your mind races all day and your body is just sort of stuck. what happens is your physical energy literally begins to build up and stagnate.

you can feel it in your gut when it starts to happen. then you get emotional effects...depression, anger, fear. once you reach this stage, meditation and mind over matter IS NOT ENOUGH.

at this point you literally have energetic stagnation in your PHYSICAL BODY. the only way to clear this is to get your body moving and flowing with life again (light exercise, walking, jumping jacks, punching air, whatever you have to do to get energy flowing). that's why physically static environments like offices, cubicles, school rooms, etc can literally be cancerous to your being if you are stuck there for long periods of time. cuz there's no movement, no flow...you sit in one spot and energy literally becomes stagnant.

point is, the body has to move and if it doesn't get to move freely then all sorts of physical/emotional issues arise. it's something our modern culture seriously neglects as many people spend their entire workday just sitting in one spot. that's literally a cancerous environment....

remember recess when you were a kid? remember how cleansing that was mentally and physically? why do we remove that need for physical movement from our schedules when we become adults? it's much more important than people realize....we ALL need to flow with life on a physical level....no matter what our age is.

Well you don't have to make it woo woo with things like "energy". Just consider the fact that our lymphatic system has no heart, like blood does, and its circulation relies on our physical movement. No movement, no circulation. Stagnant lymph that doesn't do its job of detoxing the body like it should. Basically you end up swimming in your very own toxic slime.

:lol: you didn't know this stuff then?

Welcome to the land of the movers and dancers. You'll like it here :biggrin:

For instance one of the benefits of a good wholesome screw is that all the moving, straining and shaking, thoroughly bamboozles every part of your body for quite a while, allowing all your lymph to purify thoroughly and do its job. You're then refreshed and ready to go like never before. Not just the emotional touching and attention from another does you good, but the physical activity as well.

Same for dancing. It's not just the mental / emotional letting go, it's all the jumping and stomping and waving about. Very healthy stuff, good to do for more than one song. Happy is the dude that finds a group to regularly dance with. Major reason why you see poor subsistence tribal communities with far more happiness than lone urban Westerners that sit on chairs and sofas most of their life, flipping channels or typing on keyboards, living idly through screens and monitors.

No amount of pills, vitamins, wheatgrass and purified water will do any good, if your lymph isn't moving to clean after your cells' processes. Not moving enough is in a way exactly like not flushing your toilet. If you take care to flush that every time (for obvious reasons) then it's far more important to move enough, to flush internally, or a straight up river of shit will simply accumulate in your body and you'll swim in it. You'll BE it.

To avoid all that, just keep on rolling :nyan:

Great advice! I thought I could do it with pills'n'wheatgrass but there is nothing like living life through the experience of moving around constantly and learning to do it harmoniously and fluidly.

Ironic that a being of energy would call energy "woo woo", all is energy/information.

I know and agree, it's just that "moving energy" is very vague, whereas moving lymph is much more clear and specific. Kind of like saying "drugs" or "liquids" is more generic and confusing than saying the name of a specific substance.

I notice when I exercise finally I get this purifying feeling. Might go out in the backyard and do some starjumps etc. soon.

What is a good no-weights backyard exercise program that gets the whole body moving?

How visible is your backyard to neighbors and curious onlookers?

If not so much, then this.

Just fill a player with whatever animated music you like, and show up in the backyard with some sporty shoes on and a mischievous attitude. The rest should take care of itself.

For bonus points try this. The goal of the exercise is to literally start a dance party, or at least snap people out of their meh attitude about life, maybe walk up to you ask what music you're listening to, that makes you feel so awesome. When they do, give them a hug and tell them you don't even have music, that the battery on your player died hours ago :lol:

Ultimately, the exercise that you DO, because it's so fun, is the best kind. The ideal exercise that you read about and then do once and quit because it's boring or painful, that's not so useful. Just show up. Make it a must to show up 10 minutes out in yo backyard, with proper shoes and music playing, and see what's out there. Music is a must IMO, for running or anything you get more out of yourself than without it.

Spinning things is big at festivals from what I've seen. Juggling too. Get a toy like this and put some time in it, hours of fun and movement will be the result:

I am starting to understand why it's called woo woo now. Lab coats like to dissect things atom by atom while ninjas are more interested in swimming. No time to dissect things while swimming, and the search for scientific truth is less of a swim and more like floating along a glacier.


Ironically when I used to read these terms I used to feel they were woo woo too, there was simply no context to fit ideas like "Chi" or "moving energy" into the framework let alone things like "move a purple green energy ball to your left toenail chakra and rotate it seven times while chanting hare krishna".

In these days we are coming to see a unification of the two modes of thought. I'm guessing AI/machine intelligence might do well to help frame the two together and perhaps point us to the full picture, knowingness of the movement of wholes as the movement of parts. Might start with sifting through all research in both ends and slowly building a map of terms/relations and eventually giving us a picture of how "Yin" might mean cold water flow at a temp of 10.5552*C in a particular context. Certainly building up an ontological map bridging both fields would be excellent. There are many such projects for the pharma side of things but I have yet to hear of a Chi Gong master or yogi running a computational analysis of what the hell they do :lol:

I think it's also called woo woo because it's impossible to measure and accurately point out, due to incomplete definitions.

One example is Ama, from Ayurveda. That's IMO not woo woo, because they describe it very clearly. Toxins from incomplete digestion that get spread around your body, then collect on your tongue during the night as a white thick gelatinous coating, that tastes awful. THat's NOT saliva. You can (and should) scrape it off with a spoon, as it's unhealthy to swallow it. So there it is. Testable, visible. It won't be there when you eat normally and have a good night's rest, but stuff yourself with a huge meal late at night, and the next morning presto, magical Ama. Western medicine thinks nothing of it, but in Ayurveda it's quite important to keep a good digestion and keep Ama at a minimum. Prevention is the name of the game.

If and when the Qi Gong masters can be as accurate with things like Chi, making it clearly measurable in some way, then Chi too will become less woo woo and be accepted in more mainstream fields.

Speaking of Ayurveda, they do have ways of helping along the lymphatic system.
