[Qi Gong Q&A #1] What Is Dantian

[@claritatzinatbakhsh7723]

Alex, everytime I watched your videos I learn so much physiology of my body. It helps me cure small problems of my body. I am very grateful with your knowledge and teaching. Thank you so much. ❤️🙏

[@momapi2835]

i am a big believer in TCM since decades and i am grateful that your videos give me even more insights

[@carolinematta5764]

I understood the Lower Dan Tian is the one at the Sea of Qi, the middle one is the solar plexus and the upper in the head? Very happy to discover you and learn from your very clear explanations and demonstrations of Qigong.

[@elesabethbacherta2343]

Great information! Thank you. I’m looking forward to learning more.

[@DrAlexHui]

[@andymadel5135]

Thanks Alex, very helpful, nicely done. x

[@DrAlexHui]

Thanks Andy!

[@mingchan6300]

I think you meant the LOWER DAN TIAN here. Not the MIDDLE. Good one though.

[@aneesharyan3910]

Thank you for the wonderful content.

[@DrAlexHui]

Thanks Aneesh!

[@ricardovaz5041]

Hello Alex, great video! I´ve never considered Dantian inside the belly buttom. Intersting! Have you already posted a video about Dantian breathing? Thank you!

[@RocknRollkat]

I believe that you are referring to the lower Dan tian. Bill P.

[@stephano.816]

I only know dantien in MA as normally referring to the lower one, as opposed to the middle dantien in the chest and the upper in the head. Your video leaves me confused, could you elaborate a bit more?

[@C_Ma__S]

Lower dan tian is lower abdomen. Middle dan tian is heart area and upper is in the head. I dont get why hes calling it middle dan tian either.

[@LamentationsofSummer]

Great video Alex! So burning moxa on Ren 8 is a very nice grounding and energizing clinical therapy. Is that sending yang qi directly into the dantian?

[@DrAlexHui]

Yes burning moxa on Ren8 can definitely do that. Of course certain body types should not moxa. Also I would suggest the best time of doing moxa is before 11am, when the Yang energy is rising.

[@nancybanigo6732]

How can we breath in different ways

[@ypshrivastav]

If by breathing, chi gets accumulated in middle dan tien, does it automatically reach upper and lower dan tien ?

[@TapasMukherjee-c4c]

Sir, plz.tell me how to do dantian breathing?

[@georgeduncan5178]

thank U 🍃🕯️🕯️🙏🏿 we need rescuing from failing western healing system

[@joanhui2041]

Nice to know, you explained it very well.

[@DrAlexHui]

Thank you Joan! 😊

[@ypshrivastav]

Please tell the location of upper and lower dan tien, Mr Alex.

[@kadajxanatos6175]

I watched a video where a guy said unless your DanTiens are opened you won't be able to improve much. Is there a way to open the DanTien completely or are they already opened?

[@arjay2002ph]

can I transition from 7 chakras to dan tian?

[@Ergon-]

i heard about upper middle and lower middle dantian do they exist?

[@Vinnie528hz]

[@thunderlord2200]

[@roloduarte3100]

Thank you; great explanation.

[@darthnegativehunter8659]

is there any minor dantians that aren't usually mentioned?

[@DrAlexHui]

I think those three dantians I mentioned are the “dantians”. Dantians, pressure points, chakras are different concepts. I will do a video in the future to talk more about that.

[@darthnegativehunter8659]

@@DrAlexHui i wasn't referring to pressure points or chakras nor meridians. is there any graph that shows nadis connecting to dantians?

[@DrAlexHui]

Hello. The reason why I mentioned chakras is because some schools think chakras and dantian is the same thing, but it isn’t. Nadis and chakras are the same system so we often see graphs that shows them together. I haven’t seen any graphs linking the Nadis to the Chinese concept of dantian though.

[@darthnegativehunter8659]

@@DrAlexHui i'm not talking about "systems" i'm talking about graphs drawn from seeing them.

[@DrAlexHui]

Hello again. The reason why I mentioned systems is because your question was “have I seen any graphs that shows nadis connecting to dantians”. And my answer was I haven’t because nadis is from the Hindu system and dantian is from the Chinese system. And so far I haven’t seen a graph that links them. I could let you know if I find them in the future though.

Thank you so much for clearing up the "Dantian is below the navel"
