Questions for those who like to try and define the subtle - After watching and doing the Essence Qi Gong I notice a definetely new feeling of chi compared to the expansive, vibratory, energetic, flowing, etc. qualities of energy experienced with QT exercises and practice. To put it simply I feel more of a solid substance in the aura. As described in the dvd I felt a resistance to moving stagnant chi and can feel when it it moves down and out. Now when I do Tai Chi I feel a similar sensation when moving through the form as if there is something more solid being pushed and pulled through each changing move. It seems to follow exactly the lines of muscular use. It seems more like a thing than an energy. Questions- Does anyone else sense it this way?Is this chi something separate from our energy system and internal awareness?
