Nei Gong Notes, February 10, 2026

No lesson Tuesday, because of my dog’s health problems; fortunately, he’s recovering fine, so it’s been a more normal week this week. (My practice sessions have been a little short, but not awful.)

Wednesday: 45m Wu Ji, 40m Spleen Hui Chun.

Thursday: I switched away from the wedge pillow that I’d been using for a couple of weeks, I think it was causing problems. (I think maybe it was outgassing in a way I’m sensitive to, even after that time? I wonder if I was this sensitive before I started doing Nei Gong.) For Tai Chi, I did 20m of theThree Ring exercise from Practical Tai Chi Training, 20m Rolling Power, and the Chen sword forms. And then in the afternoon I did 20m Wu Ji, 25m Dragon 2, 30m Kidney Hui Chun. And Hunyuan 48 review in the evening.

Friday: 30m Wu Ji, 15m Balancing Upper and Lower, 35m Dantian Gong.

Saturday: My regular Chen class; I got some good pointers on a couple of forms.

Sunday: Monthly Chen class, plus a little bit (10-15 min) of just sitting.

Monday: 55m Spinal Dao Yin; 10m Balancing Upper and Lower; 25m Spleen Hui Chun.

Tuesday: Reviewed Fair Maidens Weave the Shuttle. Chen pole weapons. I did the 37 form twice, once pulsing the Jin and once regular. Xinjia first form, plus the beginning of the Hunyuan 48. In the afternoon I went through the Du Stretch; and for a channge I tried out a video of a non-Nei-Gong class by Corey Hess on Non-Directed Body Movement, but I didn’t get too much out of it.

Though the reason why I didn’t get much out of it might have been that my mind was a little too restless, kind of like a week or two ago, it would be good to get that under control… I’d hoped that changing pillows would fix it, but it didn’t completely solve the issue.
