    Update

    Not exactly TCM, but I think I've found it.

    Thank you all...

    I don't drink or smoke. Funnily enough, my gums got worse after I quit drinking about three and a half years ago. (Could have been the antibacterial effect of alcohol.)

    Anyway, the other day, I...

    Thanks for the Pithy comment looking_up

    :)
    I knew that, I was wondering if there is any sort of complementary take on it in TCM. I know my diet and local drinking water probably also affect the duration and strength of flow of blood,...

    dilated pupils

    Having had a very wasted youth, wherein my pupils stayed dilated for extended periods of time, I tend to hold with the idea that my pupils are dilated after some standing qigong sessions because my...

    Right on, RAF!

    I think your analogy of the Emperor running around in his underwear is great.

    And to add to the list of quotes:

    Ditto to that...

    Probably the best way to approach any belief is with a sort of inquiring agnosticism.

    A Brazilian friend of mine once had a Brazilian witch do all sorts of stuff to exorcise my house of all...

    A Contribution On-Topic

    I don't know anyone personally to get involved in slagging.

    Don't get me wrong...

    Body Piercings and Qigong

    Quick question, and this is not a troll, but I could see how it would be construed as one.

    I was wondering if there is any hard and fast opinion about body piercings affecting Qigong/Neigong/TCC...
