Hi all, I was wondering what you guys did to develop ging/fa-jing. Here's a couple of things I do:

1. I hang a piece of paper on a string fromt he ceiling. Then I place my hand witht he fingers outstretched, just touching the hanging paper. I relax, focus then try to hit the paper by collapsing my open hand into a fist with a phenix eye as I strike. I try to hit it so that I get a small hole with my phoenix eye.

2. I swing a heavy bag back and forth. On one of the swings, I brace myself and try to intercept the bag with my palms, trying to impart just enough force from a standing position to brign the bag to a stop without either getting pushed back myself by the bag or without thrusting the bag towards where it came from. This is a modification of an exercise that my sifu showed me that I thought would help me focus and control my ging better.

Anyone else?
