Ki Manipulation

What is ki energy?
Ki is an eternal energy. It is also called Chi. It is inside everything, and can be used at a
human's will. To use Ki, you must be able to visualize very well. The key to using Ki is a
place called the Hera. The Hera is located inside your body, 3-inches below your Navel. Visualize it as a swirling ball of green energy. This is where you are going to draw
your energy from. To use Ki, You must visualize drawing energy from your Hera, and projecting it out of your body the way you want it to.

Beginner Ki --
Practice ki at least 5 days a week no matter how much or how little.

The Dan Tien
Your dan tien is the very center of your body, it is located about 2-3 inches bellow your belly button and 2-3 inches inside your body, this is the very center of your body and this is where you gather energy from, all energy you gather to use come from here,before you try to use ki you must be able to feel out where your center is, close your eyes and concentrate, try to feel it deep inside your belly, try to see it, once you can feel it, it will feel like a warm tingly feeling deep inside your belly, now once you find it move on.

Meditation
This is probably,to me, the most important thing to get right first of all, to meditate you can be in either the indian style sitting position, where you sit and cross your legs with your left foot tucked into the back of your right knee and your right foot resting on top of your left knee, the sit that would see in a yoga video!, and place your right hand on your left calf and your left hand on your right calf and always keep your back upright.

The second position is simply in a chair, keep your feet flat on the ground and your back upright and your hands on your legs. When meditating you should also concentrate on
your breathing, breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth, this is also known as Ki breathing, which will be described later.

Meditation is quite easy, its just a total relaxed state of mind, no thoughts, no worries, just peace. To meditate is easy, just get into position, closing your eyes is optional, i find it easier with my eyes closed, ignore all outside noises and interuptions, then in your mind count backwards from 10, when you reach zero say in your mind "calm and relaxed", then count backwards from 9 when you reach zero say in your mind "calm and relexed", and so on, until you get to counting from zero to zero, then just sit there, your meditating right now and remeber to focus on your breathing.

When you dont wish to meditate anymore, then simply count in your mind from zero to 1, and when you reach 1 say in your mind "awakening more and more", then from zero to 2 saying in your mind "awakening more and more", then from zero to 3 and so on until you reach 10 again.

Visualisation
Visualisation is another very important thing to learn to do, if you have trouble with it already that is, visualisation is simply being able to picture things clearly in your mind, being able to feel those things, even taste them. You should practice this everday, it helps alot later on.

To practice visualisation, the easiest thing to do is to start meditating, and during meditation, try and picture an apple in your mind, see every detail of that apple, now try to pick up the apple, feel the apple, as if it had been there the whole time, now take a bite out of it, taste it, feel less hungry when you swallow that bit of apple. Once you are able to do this, which means practice until you can it might take a week or even a few days depending on the person,

Ki Breathing
Ki breathing is simple, just stand or sit, if standing, have your legs at shoulder lenght, hand by your side, if your sitting just sit like you would for meditation, now all you have to do is breathe in through your nose, visualise that your breathing in energy, let it fill your body, picture yourself and a large empty shell and each time you breathe in it fills the shell, when you breathe out, breathe out through your mouth and visualise it taking away the old energy, the bad stuff.
