Mostly interested in health.
However it’s nearly impossible to try 5 elements and not wonder about MA stuff. Especially if you pick up any everyday object (such as an umbrella or remote control).
nevertheless people talk about “this is good for that health thing”.
Have you tried hard to pay attention to only the qigong aspects, especially having nothing to do with MA, especially if you relate it to TCM?
I guess NOT since the board is MA oriented, but it doesn’t hurt to ask.
I’m not into 5 element theory but what would metal, etc. mean from a TCM and qigong for health POV? Does this jibe with your practical feeling?
