Qigong Meditation Small Circulation has been known for centuries to not only promote health and longevity but also to open a path toward spiritual enlightenment.

Small Circulation meditation is the practice of circulating energy within the human body through the two main pathways, the Conception and the Governing vessels. This practice is considered a foundation of Internal Elixir Qigong and was a fundamental step of meditation training in ancient times.

Practising Small Circulation meditation will help you to:

  • Regulate the Qi circulating in your twelve primary Qi channels
  • Make Qi abundant throughout your entire body

Building upon a foundation of Embryonic Breathing practice, Small Circulation is the second stage of meditation training for health, longevity, and spiritual enlightenment through meditation. The third step is to practise Qigong Grand Circulation.

Dr. Yang presents translation and analysis of many ancient Buddhist and Daoist documents and offers modern scientific explanations for learning and training safely. This double-edged approach will enable you to quickly achieve a high level of understanding.

Qigong Meditation Small Circulation is organised into three parts:

  • Foundations: General Qigong concepts and meditation theory
  • Meditation training procedures: Four refinements and five regulatings
  • The practice of Small Circulation meditation

This second edition includes pinyin tonal marks for pronunciation, modern Chinese fonts, and illustration enhancements.
