MessageHello and congratualtions to you!
I think as a beginner you can do the orbit not to slow, but still experiment whith different speads, learn to listen to what your body needs and keep an experimental attitude.
After doing this for a while you can do the orbit wery slow or wery faat.
Slow: Like staying at each point realy long. Realy go into each point and stay there let the energy go more intence and also relax and smile into the point. Often when doing so the point will automatically owerflow after awhile and then the enregy goes automatically to the next point in the orbit. Then stay long at that point. When to continue in this process, well that is realy up to you, often you get some kind of feeling that the point is finnished intuitively.
Fast or wery fast: This could also be practised somethimes after you practised for a few weaks regularly. You can do the orbit more or less without staying at the points, more going in the meridians of the governor and functional channel. Just feel the points if they automatically are felt. You can do each round rather rapidly or wery fast or extremely fast like 1000 orbits in a second, just to mention the extremely fast energy practise. But donīt do it so fast often, only somethimes to experiment!
Another way that is quite nice is to follow your natural breathing pattern. Learn to breath to the stomack. Following your breath to the stomack and this way learning to breath deeper more relaxed and in a soft way. Automatically by practise your breathing will slow down. Donīt puch it to be slow just learn to relax into your breathing. Do the microcosmic-orbit while you are breathing. Breath in when taking the energy up through your spine and breath out when taking it down to the navel again. Doing so for each breath. As long as you which.
I myself did start my practise from the book you are mentioning. That was in the year 1999. After six mounth I had the oportunity to go a five day long course with Mantak Chia and some universal tao practioners from Sweden. That did increase my understanding alot.
I recomend you to try some courses in the universal-tao system if you have the possibillity.
I can also recomend you the books by Eric Steven Yudelove, especially for you the book "100 days...". In that book you will find wery good complementary practises to your practise of the microcosmic orbit. I have follower that and another book of hem the last years and it was wery good for me.
Which you the best qi to your microcosmic orbit practise!
