I have been trying out a few gentle sessions of Chi Qong; on the DVD and in a book on this art, I have seen a lot of things that relate to magick like the five elements of spirit, water, air, earth and metal. I see too that they talk of lines of energy or life-force running along the acupuncture meridians. Chakras come into it all too.

I have never really thought about how all of this connects together before. I do chakra work and go for acupuncture and now of course, have started gentle Chi Qong; it looks like using all of these things with magick would provide a balance of mental, physical and magickal aspects in ones life. (I realize that all of the above will make claims to all of this, but I am wondering who has actual experience of using some form of these arts and has found true balance.

Any thoughts?
