EnerQi Dayan’s Brilliant 4 Biomimetic Treasures: Powerful Helpers for Strengthening the Heart and Lungs, Enhancing Brain Function, and Protecting the Liver.
EnerQi Dayan originates from the secret teachings of the Daoist Kunlun School, dating back over two thousand years. But why is it called EnerQi Dayan? In Daoist health practices, EnerQi Dayan is based on biomimicry and the Five Elements’ cycle of mutual generation. Its gentle and graceful movements mimic animal actions and life habits, enhancing the flow of energy through the body’s twelve primary meridians. This is combined with the internal cultivation and resonance of the Five Elements, which helps to clear meridians, regulate the organs, and balance Yin and Yang. As a result, it significantly improves heart and lung function, enhances focus and memory, boosts mental energy, and promotes physical and mental well-being.
The combination of Dayan [Wild Goose] and Qigong demonstrates remarkable effects.
The Da Yan is a very unique animal, with a small body yet possessing high energy, which is why it is also known as the "High-Energy Bird." It has four remarkable qualities:
- The Dayan can fly at an altitude of 9,000 feet.
- It utilizes its entire body’s functions during flight.
- It is capable of long-distance flight.
- It possesses highly advanced navigation abilities.
These four remarkable qualities require a high amount of energy to support the Dayan’s way of life, which involves migrating long distances between the North and South. Ancient people observed that the high energy of these four traits in the Dayan greatly benefited the body's organ functions. They then mimicked the Dayan’s movements and incorporated Qigong guidance, which surprisingly generated high energy. Long-term practice of this technique can strengthen the heart and lungs, smooth the liver’s Qi, improve cognitive function, and promote physical fitness.
In modern times, long periods of sedentary behaviour and lack of exercise slow down metabolism, accelerate aging, and increase the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. It can also lead to bone injuries, muscle degeneration, and poor blood circulation, which in turn affect mental clarity and emotional health.
EnerQi Dayan mimics the daily activities of the Dayan—from waking up at dawn, stretching and shaking its wings to soar into the sky, searching for food, to finding a nest and resting. In just 10 minutes, this practice activates the circulation of Qi and blood throughout the body, reducing the harm caused by prolonged sitting. Master Yin Quan says: “When Qi flows, blood flows. When Qi and blood flow, all diseases are eliminated.” Qi is the best and most skilful doctor; wherever there is a blockage, Qi will go to that area and regulate it.
Enhance heart and lung function, improve a deficient and cold constitution.
The Dayan holds the record for the highest-flying altitude among birds. It can reach an altitude of 9,000 feet, soaring over the Himalayas, where the temperature is extremely low and the air is very thin. The oxygen levels at that altitude are even lower than at sea level.
From many videos of the Dayan, we can observe that its body is only about knee-high to humans. Its small heart sustains long-distance flights at 9,000 feet. After a day of strenuous flying, the Dayan shows no signs of being out of breath, indicating its exceptionally strong heart and lung function.
If your hands and feet are often cold, it could be a sign of poor peripheral circulation. Such individuals should pay special attention to potential underlying cardiovascular problems. Additionally, their lungs may be more susceptible to colds, coughing, and other symptoms due to cold exposure. By mimicking the Dayan’s flight, especially its wings, which represent the extremities, the palm trembling movement in EnerQi Dayan Technique can activate peripheral circulation and help alleviate the problem of cold hands and feet.
Master Yin Quan says: "I teach EnerQi Dayan technique all over the world. Based on long-term teaching experience, I can say that for people with heart problems or those wanting to regulate their blood pressure, practicing this technique is extremely beneficial."
Unblock the meridians, allowing smooth circulation of Qi and blood.
The Dayan's flight involves the full-body engagement of its functions. It doesn’t simply rely on its wings to fly, but uses its spine to create a full-body movement, making flight more energy-efficient and enabling it to fly longer and farther.
In our hands, we have six meridians, known as the "Hand Three Yin" and "Hand Three Yang." Master Yin Quan teaches us to open both hands like wings, mimicking the Dayan's use of the spine to move its wings while flying. You’ll notice that the large-range movements engage your entire body, and after about 30 seconds, your arms will begin to feel sore!
This is because, when flying, the spine moves, and the internal organs are also engaged. This helps the circulation of Qi and blood, and unblocks the meridians in our body. When Qi is flowing smoothly, any blockages in the meridians will create a feeling of soreness. Once the blockages are cleared, Qi and blood flow freely, and the body can restore its health.
Unblock and release liver Qi, restoring liver function.
When the Dayan flies high in the sky, its view is vast and limitless, much like a person standing on top of a mountain, gazing at the distant scenery. The wide perspective brings a sense of mental clarity and tranquillity.
The Huangdi Neijing (Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic) states: "The liver opens to the eyes." If liver function is poor, or if there is fatty liver, abnormal liver enzyme levels, sleep disturbances, frequent bad breath, emotional instability, irritability, dry eyes, and other symptoms, these are all related to liver Qi.
EnerQi Dayan includes many expansive and stretching movements that can help release liver Qi, improve mood, and restore liver function. For those looking to strengthen their liver function, practicing EnerQi Dayan is an excellent choice.
Boost brain agility and keep dementia at bay!
Each year, the Dayan embarks on its long migration, traveling thousands of miles with pinpoint precision, never straying off course. This remarkable bird has an incredible sensitivity to the Earth's magnetic fields and possesses extraordinary navigational abilities—truly a bird of great wisdom.
If you often feel drowsy at work, experience memory loss, become easily irritable, or struggle to calm your mind, it’s a sign that your brain’s Qi and blood are out of balance, with poor circulation. Dementia is directly linked to blood vessels—when Qi and blood can't flow smoothly to the brain, the risk of cognitive decline increases significantly.
The Dayan's flight engages its entire body, activating its full range of functions. Practicing EnerQi Dayan can unblock the body's meridians and stimulate peripheral circulation, allowing Qi and blood to flow freely throughout the body. This circulation nourishes the organs, especially the brain, helping to revitalize brain function, improve circulation, and boost both intelligence and memory.
At 60, practicing EnerQi Dayan eliminated both my near-sightedness and presbyopia!
A 60-year-old student from Hong Kong shared: “I’ve been practicing Bai Yin Qigong for 6 years. My eyesight was originally over 200 degrees of near-sightedness. When I went for a health check-up, the doctor told me, ‘You don’t have near-sightedness, and you don’t have presbyopia either. Your eyes are very healthy.’ I was so surprised when I heard that!”
“After getting home, I quickly grabbed the newspaper to test it out. I could see every small word on the page, all so clearly! I never expected that at 60, I would have such healthy eyes. I’m so happy!”
“I shared my experience with my classmates, and they were all incredibly envious. They even said my skin looks radiant and elastic and asked how I take care of it. I told them, ‘I practice Bai Yin Qigong every day. EnerQi Dayan is my absolute favourite!’”
