Day and Night

Just an observation--I seem to be more ready to practice when I awake. Finding it more difficult to practice late in the evening before going to bed. Partly, it is due to having been to dance class and being somewhat tired.

Will perhaps try and do a practice session in the afternoon, before dinner and any activity. See how that works out.

Had a good practice session this morning (when I finally awoke). Feeling the Qi. Starting to notice when the energy is present and flowing. Also, discovering which practices (exercises) feel "good" to me. I find the Golden Ball exercise to be stimulating and relaxing.

Saw a photograph of a troup of belly dancers. I realized how belly dancing relates to Qi--all of their movements are linked to their "dan tian" center.
