LoTUs NEI GONG QLGONG SETS FOR LEVEL ONE OF
LOTUS NEI GONG SYLLABUS
In order to move through the Nei Gong process we use a
series of exercises as ‘tools’. Through static and dynamic Qi
Gong and Dao Yin training a person may awaken the various
energies required for Nei Gong development. Below are some
of the exercises taught within the Lotus Nei Gong school.
SONG BREATHING #3
The process of breathing is a basic but very important aspect
of our training. The Daoist approach to breathing is to link it
with the process of releasing ever-increasing layers of
tension. This tension can be physical, energetic or emotional.
In all cases the tension is released from the body and this
allows a practitioner to move deeper into an awareness of
their own being. In the beginning a student learns to simply
Song breathe throughout the entire body but advanced

practices allow for targeting of specific areas of the energetic
matrix.
JING GONG #40)
Jing Gong is an umbrella term for the various standing
postures we use within the Lotus Nei Gong school. These
static training methods are different from what many people
would know as Zhan Zhuang as they are designed to awaken
various parts of a person's energy body. This type of work
forms a large part of our practice and students will encounter
Jing Gong from the first day within our school. Different Jing
Gong methods are utilised at different stages in a students
development.
JI BEN QLGONG BAS
The Ji Ben Qi Gong are eight simple moving exercises which
are primarily designed to teach a person how to move their
body in the correct way. They are designed to help a person
restructure their form and sink their Qi through relaxation in
order to refashion the body for more advanced internal
practices. Each exercise is based around unification of the
body, breath and awareness in order to circulate Qi through
key internal pathways within the body.
WU XING QLGONG As
The five Wu Xing Qi Gong exercises are simple movements
designed to help a person contact the five elemental pulses.
These pulses dictate the base health of the five key organs of
the body, the Kidneys, the Liver, the Heart, the Spleen and the
Lungs. As a person develops their Wu Xing Qi Gong practice
they help to nourish these organs. The medical benefits of
such a practice are obvious but what is also important is that
these pulses dictate the quality of the Qi which flows
throughout the rest of the energy body as well.

WU DAO YIN HS5
The five Wu Dao Yin exercises are moving forms of energetic
purging. Each exercise is designed to target and open up key
energetic centres within the body. As these centres are pulled
open they generate enough space within the energy body to
help clear stagnant Qi. The movements are then combined
with focused awareness and specific breathing methods in
order to lead the body towards a state of better health. The
exercises are also used within Nei Gong to help clear
emotional traumas which have often become trapped within
the Jing Jin and meridians of the body.
DRAGON DAO YIN $5
The four Dragon Dao Yin exercises are a set of short forms
which specifically target the spine and associated channels.
Through various stretching, twisting and undulating
movements, the spinal column is squeezed and stretched in
such a manner that it helps to purge pathogens from its
length. This helps to generate space within the soft tissues of
the body as well as opening up the core congenital networks
which run through the torso. The more space that is created,
the higher the level of internal energy which the body may
conduct along its length. As an added benefit, many students
have noticed the strong healing effects of the Dragon Dao Yin
exercises upon the spine and other joints of the body.
HUNYUAN QLGONG SBI
The Hunyuan Qi Gong exercises are designed to lead a
practitioner deeper into their energetic system. They work at
developing a higher state of release than most other exercise
sets. This skill is of paramount importance if a student is
going to move beyond the surface level of their practice. As
the Hunyuan exercises develop they help a practitioner to
contact the deeper, congenital pathways of the meridian

system. These are the channels through which flow the
congenital essences which are used extensively in alchemical
training.
LOTUS MOON QLGONG FRxéaJy
The Lotus Moon Qi Gong are actually a category of exercises
rather than a specific set. This is the umbrella title for
women's Nei Gong exercises which we use within the school.
Though women largely use the same tools and go through
the same process as men, there are some subtle differences
in the nature of their energetic makeup and these exercises
are designed for women to take advantage of their gender-
specific strengths. They largely revolve around unification
with the energy of the moon, balancing the energy of the
Uterus and understanding the reverse cycle for women. There
are also practices from the Buddhist tradition for invigorating
the energy of the Heart.
DAOIST SOUND WORK JERR FRR
Utilising both vibratory syllables and full Mantra-style
chanting, Lotus Nei Gong uses various sound exercises to
help awaken various energetic areas of the body. At the most
basic level these sounds are used to generate internal
vibrations whilst at their more advanced levels, sound
practices can lead a practitioner into various altered stages of
consciousness. These exercises are generally practiced along
with specific hand positions (Mudras) and standing postures
or else trained in a seated position.
