It seems that my back pain has subsided. Last time, I wrote about a very strong chi flow. I've been getting this kind of chi flow almost every time that I've been doing chi kung since then.
I'm getting less and less afraid of the strong swaying the chi flow is giving me, which I guess is good.
I think the reason I'm suddenly getting this strong flow is because a blockage on my back was cleared. Perhaps not completely cleared but more chi is definitely going through.
Just now, I felt tension and pain in my shoulders and shoulder-blades during chi flow. I believe it's a new area of cleansing for me.
By the way, I have been farting a lot lately. I mean, more than 10 times a day and they all smell extremely bad. My wife can't stand the smell and has to jump out of bed and leave all the bedroom windows open during the evening. I tell her it's better to have a stinky and happy husband than a grumpy one. :)
Notes on my wife's practice:
She is still swaying gently during chi flow. Her knee and ankle are making cracking sounds during the swaying. Also shortly afterwards. This only started recently.
BTW, I have been gaining weight. Noticeably in my stomach and face areas. I look a lot like how I was 3 years ago. Just last October, I fell sick of flu. After I recovered, I found that I've lost almost 10 pounds. I never gained it back until now, which is after 2 months of chi kung practice. I haven't went on a scale but it's obvious to my wife and I that my face is showing less bones and my pants are no longer too loose.
