Absorbing the Essence, Book No. 2 Absorbing the Essence comprises the Qigong cultivation techniques that were taught to Simon by Grand Master Zhong Yunlong the Abbott of The Purple Cloud Temple at Wudang Mountain. Wudangshan is one of the sacred Daoist Mountains of China and is renowned for the development of Taiji. This book is for the intermediate student and for people with experience in meditation. It contains three sections: 1. Warm up - preparation movements; 2. Wudang Longevity Qigong - this sequence of gentle, flowing movements stimulates the Heavenly Orbit, absorbing the primordial energy from the environment and letting the negativity dissolve into the distance; 3. Ba Duan Jin, Nurturing Life Qigong - this 30-minute sequence includes eight sections with exercises to stimulate different organs and meridians of the body. It is practised in a seated position on a chair or cushion - ideal for people who have discomfort whilst standing.
