During various exercises we’ll be drawing energy in through our chakras, into our organs and even through the entire area of our skin. Drawing energy into yourself is fairly easy to do and simply requires a heightened sense of self-awareness to feel.
To begin drawing energy just take a moment and focus on your breathing. Feel your breath as it flows in through your nostrils and down to your Dan Tien, the area two finger-widths below your belly button. Feel the chi as it flows in with your breath down to your Dan Tien. Take a few breaths and let the energy build up and spread through your body.

"When you are offended at any man's fault, turn to yourself and study your own failings. Then you will forget your anger."
Epictetus
As humans we have to deal with anger on a fairly constant basis. Some of us tend to be a little quicker to anger than others, but in general anger is one of the daily trials that we all have to work towards overcoming.

I’ve mentioned Intention and Awareness a few times now, and you’ll continue to see me talk about these concepts as we go. They are the root of all your energy work and when combined with your Breathing and the Law of Reciprocity they have a synergistic effect that can enhance your entire life.

Sensing 'Intention'

One of the 'mystical' aspects of the martial arts has always been the ability to feel another persons intention.
Sensing intention gives a person the ability to be in instant control of a potentially violent encounter, and it's one of the ways we use the martial arts to test our energy work and meditation skills in Hoshin.
