The Energy Arts

By Charlie Fox

The Energy Arts Holistic Energy/Meditation/Breathing For Health/Martial arts/Life. The energy arts techniques are based upon un-complex ancient teachings which have since been adopted and complicated by belief systems, commercialisation and other traditions and limited to techniques rather than the founding principles of: of : Taoist breathing Qi Gong Yogic breathing The energy arts taught are non mystical. This means is not attached to a belief system.Whether you are a Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, Atheist, humanist, wiccan, taoist etc ...If you are human this will work. It is TECHNIQUE. It is NOT: -A life improvement course. -Finding out who you are. -A cult. It most likely WILL improve your life and help you find youself but thats incidental to the meditation. It just HAPPENS as a result of practice. It is NOT SUPERNATURAL in any sense. This is learning harnessing and more consciously directing NATURAL processes of the body.

That is through ignorance. It is also that an empowering technique in this world is kept for the elite, where as it should be open to anyone. Keeping it
