What are the three different techniques of opening the Microcosmic Orbit?

a. The mind and the eyes are used to spiral Chi at each energy center, and connections are mentally established between them. Both hands are used to help guide the energy. (The right hand gives energy and the left hand receives energy.) The right hand is held on the navel while the left hand and one’s mental concentration are moved to each successive point along the Functional and Governor Channels. The breath is not held in this technique.

b. The mind and the eyes are used to spiral Chi at each energy center, drawing the energy to each successive point along the Functional and Governor Channels.

c. The mind and the eyes are used to spiral Chi as short breaths of air are sipped in through the nose to help draw the energy to each successive center. Each breath is sipped in succession without exhalation until release becomes necessary (before any discomfort occurs).
