| VIII. Nei Kung revitalizes sexual energy. As Nei Kung rebuilds the body it conditions and balances what the Taoists refer to as the Seven Glands. These glands are listed as the pineal, pituitary, thyroid, thymus, pancreas, adrenal and sexual. In the West, these structures and the complex interactions of hormonal secretion and exchange between them and the mechanisms of vital functions in the body are collectively known as the endocrine system. From the very first posture of Nei Kung, as the chi begins to flow with increasing force, the individual experiences a stimulation of the endocrine system reflected in a raising of body temperature, perspiration, flushing, flashes of heat, involuntary shaking , etc.. Though these reactions will vary in nature and degree among different people, they all indicate intricate renewal and rebalancing underway internally. As training progresses and the endocrine system is robustly invigorated, so too are the sex glands. Some individuals experience this revitalization immediately, others, according to Natures pace and plan, after more pressing bodily needs have been addressed. This sexual effect is one of the wonderful additional benefits of the vibrant health promoted by Nei Kung. |
