Hi-quite an interesting substack you have. This is a little OT, but in your domain I think. What is your opinion of the book the Way of Energy (Lam Kam Chuen), or, more specifically, the QiGong style called Zhan Zhuang (standing like a post). The author dropped an alleged quote from the Daodejing in his book, the quote being as follows: "Standing alone and unchanging, One can observe every mystery, Present at every moment and ceaselessly continuing-This is the gateway to indescribable marvels." A nice quote indeed but I have looked up and down and can not find the quote in the Daodejing, even as roughly translated. I looked at Legge's and also Pine's translations. I am no Chinese expert but with a dictionary I can hack my way through most stuff. The apparent absence of this quote made me a bit suspicious of the book. If you can find the quote in the Daodejing please let me know!

At any rate, I am fascinated by Zhan Zhang but would like a learned opinion before diving in. Thanks

This brings to mind the "woodpecker" chopping noise of pulsed EMFs:

I love how you are bringing a universal quality such as "choppiness" into other aspects of our health. Makes it easier for us all to integrate and learn.
