The beginner in the Taoist system takes the fist steps learning a series of exercises transforming the physical body in an efficient and healthy mechanism, released from the tensions and the stress of everyday life.
The target of this level is to study how to heal our mind, how to love our own way of existence, our perception over life, to learn the primal way into healing our bodies and the bodies of everyone related or connected with us.
This level of energy mastering can sometimes take around 12 months to be completely covered but in all this time we learn how to condense and preserve the vital force through a few major techniques: the inner smile, the six healing sounds, the microcosmical connection and several others.
As people grow old their vital force is getting weaker causing illness and suffering. Through Tao they can learn how to gather and refine the life force in a Qi sphere so it will stay with them forever and not lose strength or consistence.
The true Tao masters from China have over time retired in anonymity. Their place was taken to some extent by the Qi Gong masters who unfortunately have lost the secrets of the ancient practice that used to harvest the sexual energy and the inner body alchemy, but have transformed the spirit of Qi – the energy – into a science.
The energy techniques that are part of the inner Tao alchemy recognizing Qi Gong as one branch are able to get extraordinary results in balancing the nervous system, the circulation, the breathing, the gland activity, the immunity, the digestion and aid the development and health of the muscle and bone mass. The practice can help restore balance in the body temperature and in the nervous system.
These practices help us remove or transform the fatigue and stress, increase the work capacity and keep the composure and calm through inner balance before the unexpected events occurring during life.
The very foundation of the Tao practice relies on transforming and preserving the physical energy inside the body so it won’t be wasted or weakened as a consequence of the interactions with the exterior world.
The complete spiritual independence resides in avoiding the energy to be wasted through the interaction with the world but to keep it and treasure it to be used at the exact time when the body needs it. And this is the essence of the Tao way.

Kriya Yoga To Overcome Psychological And Mental Problems!
“Kriya yoga is a self-discipline, self study and attunement to the indwelling reality”.
Exercises and breathing techniques are intended to purify and hence cleanse the body’s energy channels.
Kriya Yoga mentally directs one’s life’s energy to revolve, upward, downward and around the six spinal centers which correspond to 12 astral signs of zodiac.
One half minute rotations of energy around the sensitive spinal cord of the man will affect subtle process in his evolution.
Kriya Yoga is derived from three other yoga techniques such as Karma yoga, Bhakti yoga and Jnana yoga.
Karma yoga – Focus on the movement of soul inside and out side of body. Karma means actions, all acts done by you from birth till death. Karma yoga shows the path for doing right things.
Bhakti yoga- Focuses on spreading love to other fellow beings. This yoga is based on the principle “God is love and love is God”. This yoga is regarded as the most direct method to merge in cosmic consciousness.
Jnana yoga- Focuses the mind on a task and allows the mind to be free. Knowledge of the right and insight into the proper means of realization are the two attribute to Jnana yoga. Jnana yoga is awareness to do or not to do.
Kriya yoga procedure involving body and soul:
The first and fore most action of the soul is to breath. The kriya yoga is based on breath, brain and spinal cord. Breathing is the mediator between soul and body. The brain is the mediator between sense organs and mind.
The physical actions you perform are reflected on your sense organs through the link of the lower part of the brain and the spinal cord.
From the lower part of brain, where the lower mind is situated, you pass your concentration into the higher mind then to the breath and lastly to the soul. This is how Kriya yoga is done.
By practicing kriya yoga, one can create an inner fire called “Tapa Agni”. The inner fire allows the practitioner to burn his karmas (past actions, negative thoughts and sins) which in result overcome psychological and mental problems.
Preparing the body: The person who practices other yoga techniques can start with Hatha yoga (as this improves flexibility of the body) and the starters can start by a 15 minute program to yield maximum results from this yoga.
Preparing mind: Your mind should be away from distractions and thoughts. Ensure your mind to be correct in a focused direction. Kriya promotes the study of metaphysical principles and cleanliness and purity of the mind.
Mudras: The mudras are added to kriya yoga to have control over the flow of energy in the body and the chakras.
Pranayama: Keep attention on the breath which goes inside and comes outside of the body. Kriya pranayama is done to increase the magnetization of the spine and direct life force to the brain with the effect to refine the brain and nervous system.

Allergy Causes, Symptoms and Risks
Causes and Risks
Allergies seem to have some link to heredity. (If both your parents have them, it's more likely you'll develop them.)
There is some belief that babies, who are not breastfed, are more predisposed to developing allergies.
A depressed immune system can encourage the development of allergies.
Hay fever (allergic rhinitis) results in the presence of pollen, affecting mucous membranes of the nose, eyes and airways. There are three hay-fever seasons: They are February to May, late spring and summer, and fall (or ragweed pollen season).
Mold allergies can happen when mowing or raking the yard, harvesting crops, walking through fields/meadows. Molds can grow wherever it is damp and dark especially in the bathroom, kitchen, trash containers and garage.
Some of the more common foods that people have allergies are sulfites, chocolate, wheat products, dairy products, strawberries, shellfish and eggs.
Symptoms
- Sneezing
- itchy, watery eyes
- runny nose (clear discharge)
- coughing
- nasal congestion

Insomnia Treatments
Treatment and Prevention
Types of insomnias may go away on their own if they are due to disruptions in your sleep schedule. These types are known as transient and intermittent insomnias. If the insomnia is affecting your daytime performance or you experience daytime sleepiness, your doctor may prescribe short-acting sleeping pills.
Anyone taking sleeping pills or other medication for insomnia should be under close supervision to evaluate the effectiveness and side effects of the drug. Doctors will usually give you the lowest dose possible to relieve your symptoms.
If your insomnia still isn't going away, keep a diary of your sleep history. A doctor may also want to interview your partner about the quantity and quality of your sleep.
Your doctor will want to diagnose and treat any underlying medical or psychological problems, such as depression, and identify behaviors, like caffeine consumption or TV-watching, that may worsen the insomnia.
Certain behavioral techniques can improve your sleep.
Relaxation therapy can relax your body and mind and stressed out muscles. There are several ways of using the therapy but they all center on non-directed relaxation. A patient would concentrate on a repeated word, sounds or muscle movements. By not blocking out other thoughts or feelings, the focus is on relaxing through accepting the thought or feeling.
Breathing exercises, acupuncture, massage therapy or some forms of yoga can also help to relieve stress and tension.
Sleep therapy involves allowing a few hours of sleep during the night and gradually increasing the time until you reach a normal night's sleep.
Reconditioning alters how people with insomnia associate the bed and bedtime with sleep. With this therapy, you don't use the bed for anything but sleep and intimacy, you go to bed only when sleepy, and you leave the bedroom if you can't sleep. You are also taught to avoid naps and sleep at the same time each day.
Herbal Recommendations
Valerian: This herbal tranquilizer may help muscles relax.
Melatonin: The pineal gland produces this hormone. Small amounts can help regulate the sleep cycle in people who have a deficiency or in people with jet lag.
Chamomile: This soothing and calming tea is used in Europe and the U.S. to invite rest.
Kava Kava: A Pacific island root that may help alleviate anxiety, and set the stage for restful sleep.
Consult with your physician before taking any vitamins, supplements or herbal products for treating insomnia. If your condition is severe, do not delay seeking help from a doctor or sleeping disorder clinic.
