Inner Smile
Here, Mantak Chia shares a technique of transferring our positive emotional energy into our organ systems.

He has also studied Western medical science and anatomy for two years to gain greater understanding of the mechanisms behind healing.
3 of 6 Healing Sounds demonstrated by Wayne B. Chandler
This brief demonstration of chi kung (qigong) healing sounds and postures is given by Wayne Chandler. The first sound and set (comprised of 3 poses) is for the lung, and then the kidneys become the focus with the sound ‘chew way’ combined with an additional two postures. Finally, excess heat is removed from the liver in the last set (3 more of poses). You can’t miss Wayne’s eyes in this last set. There is a meridian connection (a channel that chi flows through) between the liver and the eyes, hence the reason for opening his eyes (to the point where their just about the fall out of his head).
