Immortal Fang's Longevity Qigong

This text, originally published in 1723, presents a set of Abdominal Rubbing Exercises for Preventing Illness and Prolonging Life that was passed on by Daoist Fang. This set of 9 exercises is simple to learn and easy to practice. They can be done laying down or standing up and should be done at least twice a day.

"This method of Rubbing the Abdomen uses movement to transform stillness and stillness to facilitate movement. It conforms with Yin and Yang. It complies with the Five Elements, their mechanism of generation and the spirit of their changes. That is why it can connect and harmonize the top and bottom, put Yin and Yang back in order, get rid of the old and generate the new, replenish the five internal organs (Heart, Liver, Spleen, Lungs, and Kidneys), expel all the externally contracted evils, and get rid of all kinds of internally generated diseases and ailments. It supplements deficiency and drains excess. This method of dispersing and strengthening has infinite wonderful results. Why use medicines and elixirs when you have actual results of preventing illness and prolonging life (without them)?"
