Elemental Gate

There is a core fundamental understanding that is needed when training Meditation and Qi Gong and the core is the Energy Gates. In Qi Gong there are 5 Elemental gates located in the physical body. Each gate corresponds to an internal organ, season, direction and emotion and it is essential when starting to play the game that we learn about these Elemental Gates.

Dragon Gate: The Game of Universal Abundance is a way in which we can come to learn about these fundamental elements without getting stuck in years of training some Tai Qi/Qi Gong. After 14 years of gathering information from teachers from all around the world, it is important for me to just cut through all the flowery forms and get to the root of this energetic knowledge.

Ok well, I can only scratch the surface in this Blog, but I will start to scratch. We have previously talked about the Natural Alignment of our spines. These energy gates/chakras are spinning vortexes of energy that move around the central nervous system and are directly affecting the health of our internal organs.

When we approach any form of Qi Gong, Tao Yoga we need to keep in mind that these energy centers are a great way to bring a more integrated practice to our life. Starting from the Stomach at the base of the spine we have the Earth Gate and this is by far one of the most important energy center in our natural evolution to open the Dragon Gate.

When we start training Qi Gong it is important to have a stable foundation… so what does that mean? To me this means you need to have certain strength in the physical body and it is important to have a strong foundation into the earth.

Hence the first Elemental Gate is Earth, this is related to being grounded, when you are eating well and not too much, then you will naturally feel relaxed and at home. When you are exercising and your body is strong and your feet are firmly planted into the earth then this is also another way to feel your foundation.

Also a deep understanding of your sexual essence is needed and for men it is really important that you have an understanding of retaining your sexual fluids and you will need to learn techniques to cultivate your sexual energy. These are the foundation to a healthy existence and when the body is strong enough then we can move on to the higher levels of this game.

So when you are registering for the 35 Day Qi Gong Challenge, the first level of the Dragon Gate Game then the first thing that we will establish is a proper understanding of our foundation and breathing and then we can move to the other levels of this game.
