ABOUT THUNDERHANDS



About Me: "Wakiya" (Thunder)
I am a Tribal, Musician, Writer, Artist. I try to walk the path and have studied the tradition of the "Wisdom keepers" like Lame Deer, Fools Crow, Black Elk, and Rolling Thunder from the tribes of this region, and Lao Tzu, Buddha, Bodhidharma, Yeshua, and other enlightened ones from the many various tribes of the earth. I understand the worlds religions and belief systems, and realize the division this can cause by the lack of understanding the "real message" from the Masters. My intention, and life's prayer is to try to live in harmony with Grandmother Earth, Grandfather sky, (Nature) and "the spirit that moves in all things," and help in any way I can to build a bridge between all men and tribes so they can walk their path in a manner that will benefit themselves, the Earth and others. I open up, and ask Great Spirit, The creator, The Tao, The Universe, to work and direct healing and positive energy through me by different means, like the Flute, drums, Words, Prayer, and Touch. I try to be loving and accept others from the heart, and practice forgiveness. I honor all people, the winged one's, and four legged ones considering us all equal, not one being above another. I honor the bountiful Harvest from Mother earth in the form of plant life, water, air and herbs which sustain our oneness with her. I pray all tribes should re-unite as one, so we may protect the planet and live in harmony. Within you, without you.

Qigong for health and longevity


In the ancient Chinese tradition, "Chi" (or Qi) means "internal energy, breath of life": a unified force which has unlimited capacity for expression, fundamental in all Perennial Tradition schools. Chi Gung - Chi Kung, Qi Gong, Qigong - is the art that teaches us how to master this energy. It integrates Chinese healing with Taoist meditation and gentle movements.

Chi Gung - Chi Kung, Qi Gong, Qigong - is a remarkably enjoyable system of exercises that greatly helps us to know our body and its forgotten capabilities. It balances the whole of our being, increases our Chi and teaches how to feel it and master it. It also greatly helps to free us from tensions, therefore facilitating a better harmony with nature.

Chi Gung - Chi Kung, Qi Gong, Qigong - is effective to:

*

obtain stress reduction and relaxation
*

prevent diseases and allergies
*

stimulate the natural healing process
*

cultivate emotional balance
*

gain mental clarity
*

increase concentration, vitality and stamina
*

build internal power
*

enhance sexual functioning
*

relieve joint pain
*

gain wellness and longevity

Chi Gung - Chi Kung, Qi Gong, Qigong - is neither a belief nor something invented from scratch: it is embodied in each of us. The newborn child does it naturally and unconsciously, the adult has to recall and bring those birth mechanisms to consciousness, so they can function again. The fundamental Chi Gung - Chi Kung, Qi Gong, Qigong - stages are three: cultivation of health and longevity, development of mental and spiritual powers, perfect harmony between man and universe. Nevertheless, according to the classic Taoist system, to complete the advanced stages it is necessary to practice also the other Internal Arts, such as Meditation, Tai Chi, Ba Gua and Tui Na.

The techniques from Lao Tzu's Water Tradition, contain Nei Gung teachings ("inner skill"). Gentle on body and mind, they awake in the adult the softness and flexibility of a newborn baby, coupled with the energy of an athlete.

These techniques are the only ones in the Taoist system to include - besides the 16 Taoist Nei Gung components - the Dissolving: a process to clear energy blockages both at the physical and emotional level. They are not easy to find even in China.
Students learn to focus attention on what is happening internally, and to feel, control, build and store their Chi.
