Chi Kung experiment: Day 2

So, a second day of Chi Kung experiment is over so let's sum the day. First of all, I have to admit I really like the feeling right after the Tao Yin exercise.

Chi Kung experiment

Further development of the experiment Tao Yin and Tin Kuang are a good beginning, but I would like to add more complex exercises to the mix as the experiment progresses, ...
