The Dragon Dao-Yin exercises are a set of four short sequences
designed to work with the subtle energies of the spine. Damo
Mitchell teaches and explains the exercises in detail, within the
context of a larger discussion of Dao Yin. He covers the theory,
history and development of Dao Yin exercises in general, and the
effects of the process which a student can go through if they
practise them. He also explains the difference between Qi Gong and
Dao Yin, including the qualitative differences, and their effects
upon the body, as well as the concept of purging as opposed to
nourishing or regulating, and how Chinese medical theory relates to
Dao Yin training. One chapter is devoted to problems related to
stagnation and the the flow of Qi, and covers the different causes
and forms of stagnation (including the location of stagnation along
the meridian pathways, stagnation in the Qi Men, and in the
psyche), and the Chinese medical theory of the process of damage
caused by stagnation. Later chapters look at breathing patterns and
the extension of Yi, opening the joints, and rotating the bones and
spine.The author also discusses stillness as the source of
movement, and the philosophical significance of the Dragon and the
pearl, as well as the means of hardwiring Dao Yin exercises into
the energetic body. Central to the discussion is the concept of the
spine, and how to wake it up. The Dragon exercises - Awakening,
Swimming, Soaring and Drunken - are described in detail, with
photographs and step-by-step instructions on each of the exercises
as individual therapeutic exercises and as a form.
