Chairman Mao would have lived longer if he was not swimming. I thought he might have ten more years before he dies. 


It was because swimming is a situation that could bring away Qi from the body. 


What is Qi? 


Qi is some kind of flowing inside and outside our body. Studies were still in the early stage, but we can watch it with our own experience. 


It is certain that each one would have a certain among of Qi in his body. The Qi is always flowing. An experienced Qi master can bring the Qi from one part of his body to another part. 


If I was sprained in my angle, I could move some Qi to heal it. 


Because the cells need Qi.  Qi can fix the wounded cells. 


It was a founding from my own experience. 


During my many years of Qi practice, though I am still a beginner, I have found Qi can be stagnant sometimes. It would stay in one place and make me feel uncomfortable and sick. 


It was by this time, to release the extra Qi is necessary.  


If Qi was staying in the head in an excessive form, one would have insomnia and many problems.


How to release Qi from the head?  There were many methods. Message, arm swinging, combing hair, or even bending down to touch the earth with the head can help. 


I use water sometimes.  


Stand straight under the shower and let the water run through the head and body can help to release Qi. 


And I went to swim. 


Swimming is helpful in reducing Qi from the body. 


It stirred my thought.  


Why I need to eat more after swimming? And why I cannot reduce weight even I swim a lot? 


It was because, swimming had reduced my Qi. For the younger swimmer, it might be good practice as the recovering can help the swimmer build up the body. But for the older people, recovering is not easy and have to resort to sleeping more and eating more to replenish the Qi. It would be harmful for older people in the long run. Because the total among of Qi would be less and life energy is reduced. 


Qi is one of the most important elements in the body other than blood. 


Qi is helpful in thinking. 


How can the thoughts flow? Does it need energy? The answer is yes. Qi can help. Energy must be coming from different sources, blood and electricity are important, and some of the chemical substance also. Qi is simply another element. That was the common understanding of the poets in history. To write fluently you need Qi. To write dryly is the result of Qi lost. 


Thinking too much is bad for sleeping. But it is not easy to stop thinking when you have to manage too many things in the day. One method is to write down the thoughts before sleep. It needs not a complete work of an article, but if you can jot down some of the points, or simply list out questions, you would find the thoughts would be tidy up and new finding would appear in the next morning. 


When you have written down the thoughts, you can have a good sleeping. Because by this time,  Qi is already released.  


It is a time of curiosity lost. Seldom do people found it interesting to study Qi. However, Qi must be another important element in composing the planet. 


Qi must be flowing beneath our earth. 


And Qi is related. 


Qi is related between couples, relatives, friends, and even strangers.  


Qi is a related energy for the whole population. 


If the total population is happy, extraordinary things could happen. 


The feeling would be echoed by the total Qi under our feet.   I have an imagination that even the color of the water would change, like the Yellow river. The Yellow river had been changing from yellow to green. There must be a reason of it, imagination cannot stop me from thinking it is related to the feeling of the total population.  


It was not only my own imagination. It was from Wen Tian Xiang. He wrote in his poem: “The song of the positive Qi”  


“There is a positive Qi in the Universe. The Qi is in many forms, bestowed on all ever-changing subjects.  Qi is rivers and mountains below and stars and sun above……”
