Qigong To Clear Stagnant Energy

This is a six-exercise set, which is different from my typical 1–2 movement practices. Once learned, it becomes a quick and effective 10–15 minute reset you can return to anytime. Be sure you’re familiar with Pulling Down the Heavens and Channel Dredging before beginning (see my Profile Page). The Qi Scatter Set is a complete energetic cleanse designed to disperse stagnant Qi, clear the meridians, and reset your system from the inside out.

Welcome. If you are new here, My name is Sally and welcome back if you've been here before. My channel is all about quick qigong practices that you can do in 10 to 15 minutes to reduce stress. Boost your energy and help heal your body. Today we're gonna be doing a set called the Chi Scatter Set. This video might be a little bit longer because this is an actual little set. This is made up of six exercises. Normally I end up doing one or two different exercises to give you something quick, But once you know this set, You can do it in 10 to 15 minutes. And it's a great way to wake up all of the chi, Disperse any negative chi or turbid chi, And then ground that chi back into the earth so it can be repurposed, Regenerated, And brought back to light, Back to love, Back to source. So the six exercises that we're going to do is pulling down the heavens, Channel dredging, Counter sway, Pound the post, Trembling horse, And then back to pulling down the heavens. I've gone over pulling down the heavens and channel dredging in prior videos. So if you don't know those two, Those are probably two of the more explanation needed exercises from this set, Then I'm going to link those below so you can go and learn those first and then come back to this set. Otherwise, You might be a little lost because I'm not going to teach those in this video. In this video I'm going to also be doing the channel dredging with more of an advanced theory as we move through the channel dredging. We are going to do it on three levels, The Jing, Qi, And Shen. So Jing is like your physical essence. Jing is your tissue, It's your organs, It's your body, It's your corporeal self. Chi is your emotions, Your emotional body, How you feel about things. It's more of that sensitive area of your being that you are. Your Shen level is your spirit, Right? It's out beyond you. It can travel in all directions. Light waves, It can remote view, Your spirit is boundless, Right? So your Jing is bound, Your emotions is your Qi, Which kind of tend to make your Jing feel good or feel bad. And then you've got your Shen, Which is your spirit, Your trust, Your belief, Your connection with the universe. So as you're doing the channel dredging and you're moving in these three levels, The first level as Jing, I want you to be raking your fingers like they're physically like you're digging into your skin. Like you are going deep into the body and you're like working that energy. And you're like, Again, You're using these fingers, Like you're going through the skin into the arms and you're kind of raking this energy from the body, The physical body itself. The second two, So we're going to do two of each one. The second set is going to be on the chi level. So this is going to be the emotional level. So as you're doing the channel dredging, I just want you to lightly touch your skin. Like just very, You're just touching a little top, The surface, Like you're just tickling your skin as you're dredging. Through. The Chi, The emotional field of the body. And then the Shen, When you do your Shen, You're not even going to touch the body. So as you're coming up, You're just raking right in front of the body. You're staying. On the outside of the skin, You're not touching. Anything as, Again, You're cleansing these three levels of your meridians, Of the channel dredging that we're doing. You're clearing it on the physical level, The emotional level, And then the spirit level. And you'll feel different each way that you do it. So that's all I'm going to say about the rest of this practice as we kind of move through it. It's more self-explanatory. So again, You're going to begin with a pulling down the heavens, Three pulling down the heavens. Then we're going to do six channel dredges. One, Again, Two for each of the levels, The Jing, The Qi, And the Shen. The next exercise is the counter sway. So the counter sway, It's like your feet are just shoulder-width distance. You're pulling the energy up. This is the movement. It's literally up. And down, Up and down. But as you're doing it, You're imagining filling your whole body with the chi from the earth and the heaven, Right? Now you're coming down. So you're filling your body with chi and with energy. And as more energy comes and moves into the body, It's going to push out and release the turban chi. So the second part of the counter sway is you're going to be turning to one side. And you're gonna be like, It's like you're releasing. All of that turbid chi that you've pushed out because you're bringing in all of this good chi. So to explain this, I just want you to know, So as your hands are out, As you're doing the twisting of the counter sway, It's like you just lean over to one side. So it's kind of like I'm just leaning over to one side. So I'm leaning to the right, The left, The right, The left. As I lean over to the right, My left hand comes like I'm sweeping this energy through and my back hand comes behind me. Okay, So if you're doing it like this. This doesn't feel right. This will feel very hard. And this is wrong. Okay, So really you want to be swinging out. And out. And out. And as I do it, I kind of It's like I'm releasing, I'm letting that Turbid Chi go. The next one is Pounding the Post, Where you're just going to sit here and you're going to pound the post. As I talk you through, The energy is going to move through the body. If you start to notice that your calves get tired, Just separate your feet a little bit. It makes it a lot easier. And then we finish it, We're going to have Clean it off with a. With a trumpling horse and then ground it all back down again with. The. Pulling Down the Heavens. So it is a little bit of longer set but it's such a cool set so I wanted to share it. I've been teaching it in class and everyone likes it so I wanted to have a space where it was here that it could We'll kind of live on and be practiced whenever anyone wanted it. So I'm really excited. So let's get to it. So you're gonna begin with your feet about shoulder width distance apart. Again, Look down, Make sure your feet are facing forward. Again, Like you're standing on those train tracks. Soften your knees, Relax your hips, Tuck your tailbone. Ground into the earth. Connect with the earth. Keeping your head above so you're connecting with the heaven. The energy from the north star is coming down. The energy from the center of the earth is coming up. You are the connector. Of these two spaces. Now we're gonna begin with three pulling down the heavens and we're going to do the sacred sound of ah. It's just a relaxing way to soften the energy, Move the energy and begin the practice. So soften the knees, Like dip your hands into the earth. As you inhale, You're pulling that earth energy up. Hands get to about shoulder height. Rotate the palms, Gather the heavenly energy and then exhale with the sacred sound. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Letting that sound wash through, Wash down through your body. Again, Dipping into the earth, Inhale. Pulling the earth energy up. Rotate the palms, Gathering the heaven. And then exhale. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh Pushing that energy all the way down into the earth. One more, Inhale. Gathering. You're going to exhale. Separate your feet a little bit by doing a heel toe out. Come down to the ground, Our first channel dredge. Remember, We're going to be digging our hands all the way deep. Use your imagination, Really digging your hands in to those meridians. So as you inhale, You're coming up the inside of the legs, Up the center of the body, Really digging into the body, Coming down the bottom. So the hands grabbing at the wrists. Shaking it off. Dipping in above the arms. Coming into that jean, Coming over the head, Really pushing into the body, Down the outside of the legs, Gathering the energy at the ankles. One more like that. So that gene essence, Pulling that energy up early, Digging into the tissue, Down under the armpits, Gathering that energy at the wrists. Dipping into the top of the arms, Getting onto that Jing level. Come over the head, Down, Outside of the legs, Gathering the energy at the ankle. Now you're going to do it at the chi level. So the hands just lightly brush. So coming up the center of the body, Under the armpits. Down the inside of the arms gathering. Lightly touching the tops of the arms, Coming around the head, Past the ears, Down the sides of the legs, Gathering at the feet, The ankle. One more like that. Lightly touching the inside of the body all the way up. Under the inside of the arm, Grab it at the wrist. Release over the tops of the arms. Again, Just lightly touching. Down around the body, Just tickling the outside of your skin, Gathering at the ankle. Now you're not even going to touch the body. Up the shin. Through the center of the body, Down the inside of the arms, Gather it. On top. Again, Not touching any of the body. Through that spirit level. Down the outside of the legs, Gather the ankles together. One more, Inhale up the shin level through the center of the body, Under the armpits, Down the inside of the arms, Grab at the wrists. Over the tops of the arms. Again, Not touching. Coming through the shin level, Clearing the spirit. Gather at the waist. And now you're gonna begin that counter sway. So inhale and exhale. Inhale. Exhale, So again, As you're inhaling, You're pulling that energy up from the earth. And you're letting it settle in the body. Bringing in vitality and life as you're pulling that energy up from the earth, Feeling it fill the body. Drawing it down from the heaven. You're just feeling all this good chi pushing out. The turbid chi building up the energy. Inhaling, Exhaling. Inhaling, Exhaling. Inhaling, Exhaling. And now we're all going to turn and we're going to be turning this way. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. So as you're pulling that energy up, You're shaking off the bad. Inhale up. Out. In. Out. In. Out. In. Out. Five more. Four. 3 One, Now bring both feet together and you're gonna pound the post. So again, We're gonna be sitting here for a little bit, So you can start with your feet together. Really pounding the post. You're getting that energy in this. Strong fashion coming straight up the body. If it starts to hurt your calves, Because again, This isn't something that you do every day, You'll be like, Oh man, This is kind of hard. Separate your feet just a little bit. It gives you a little bit more space, It's more energy, So it doesn't hurt the calves as bad. So as you sit here and you pound the post, We're gonna go through three levels again. The first one is we're going to move through. The super fascial area right beneath your skin. So your skin and then there's fascia and then there's muscle. I want to use the chi as it moves up the leg, Like keep that like shimmering light right at the base, Right underneath the skin. So it's separating the skin from the muscle. It's making your skin really soft and subtle and separate from anything else on the body as it moves up the legs. Moving up the body, Just shaking that energy, You're separating the skin. From the fascia. Up the torso and the neck. Down the shoulders. And the fingers and then you're going to rise up. And you're gonna come down for three. One, Two, Three. Again, Rise up. Down for three, One, Two, Three, Rise up. Down for three, And then keep pounding the post. This time now, As that energy is moving up the body, It's going to be moving through your muscles and through your tendons and your ligaments. So use your imagination and kind of see this white light or this blue light or this healing purple light, Whatever color works for you. And start to feel that energy moving up, Moving all through the feet, All through the joints and the ligaments and the tendons, All in the ankle. It comes up the calf, It starts to swirl through the calf muscle, Up through the quad and the hamstring, Into the psoas, Into the hips, Moving all through the hips, Swirling all through the cavity fluid and you start to feel your organs kind of just bouncing free, Not connected to anything. So let your kidneys just bounce free. Your spleen, Separate the spleen. Feeling the spleen just bouncing free. The liver. Waking up the liver, Lighting up the liver, Letting the liver just bounce free, The heart. Disconnecting the heart from everything and just letting it bounce in the chest. And then the lungs, Letting each lung just bounce free. Being separate, Don't let them stick to the ribs. They're just bouncing free. Then that energy comes up, It moves through the. . . Joints and the tendons and ligaments and your shoulders, Down your bicep and your tricep, Through the forearms, Swirling through the forearm, Into the wrists and all the fingers. And inhale, Raise up. Exhale down for three. One, Two, Three, Inhale up. Down for three, One, Two, Three, Inhale up. Down for three. One, Two, Three, And keep pounding the post. Now this time you're going to move through the bones. So we're going to light up the bones. Let's use like a blue, Like we're going to get through the marrow of the bones. This starts to light up all the bones in the feet. We just let that energy go straight to the center of the bones, Like it's lighting up the bones, Like it's turning them on, Moving all through the bones of the feet into the ankle. Up those two bones. I think it's the fibula and the tibia and the legs. Into the femur, Lighting up the femur. Coming into the hips, Lighting up the whole pelvic area. Up the spine, Lighting up the spine. Seeing your ribs light up one at a time as you come up to the body. Bringing that energy down through the tops of the arms into the two bones at the bottoms of the arms. Lighting up all the bones in your fingers. And then rise up. Down for three. One, Two, Three, Rise up. Down for three. One, Two, Three, Rise up. Down for three and now don't stop your we're done pounding the post but don't stop shaking because we've just woken up all of this chi and we don't want it just to settle just yet, Okay? So separate your feet, Keep a little bounce going on here because again, Energy can't. If energy is, It gets stuck when you get stagnant. So if you keep moving, Like nothing can get stuck on you. So now we're going to do an exercise called Trembling Horse, Which to me is kind of like you're pulling a lawnmower. Okay, So you're going to take your left hand, You come down towards your right and you like pull the lawnmower and you get rid of all of that, All of that grass, Right? So again, Reach down. They call this trembling horse because horses will be like So again, But you're just trying to like get that chi off of you, All that chi that we've just woken up. I just want you to. . . Like you're shaking off the. . . And as you move, The move gets a little smaller. Right, So you're just. I'm still pushing out that Chi. Till I'm doing the move but not even moving my body. And when I get done and I'm still, I'm going to do three counter-wise circles in the inside of my lower dantian with my energy. And then I'm going to. . . Exhale like this light out and it's just pushing away. All of that chi that I just shook up. Alright, And now we end with three pulling down the heavens to ground all of that toxic turbid chi and the good chi back into ourselves. So inhale, Gathering, And then exhale, Bringing that energy like you're just washing your body, You're washing your bones with this light, This gold and silver light from the earth and the heaven. Cleansing the body, Pushing out any extra turbid chi we didn't catch, Pushing it all the way into the ground. Again, Inhale, Raise up. Gathering the sun, The moon, And the stars. And then as you exhale, Draw that energy down through your crown. Cleansing the body, Washing the bones, Washing the muscles, The skin. Pushing energy down through the legs into the earth. One more. And exhale. And rise up. Notice how you feel. It's a good cleansing system for. . . Again, Dredging those meridians, Right? Bouncing all of that chi, Getting all that chi off, Building all that amazing chi in us with the counter sway. Then shaking it all off with the pounding the posts. Scattering it away from us with our trembling horse and then grounding that energy. Back into the body. Keeping ourselves clean and clear and vibrant and free. And I hope you guys like that set. Again, It's called the Chi Scatter Set and kind of makes sense. You're just waking up all of the chi. You're scattering it all over and then you're like just grounding it down. It's a great practice. It's simple and super effective, And I hope you guys liked it. Again, Like, Share, Subscribe, And I'll see you guys next week. Thank you.
