Taoism: Extending Jin by 1 inch will result

in 10 extra years of life
From Beijing, Shenzhen to Sichuan, Tibet,
Hong Kong and across America, millions ar
e witnessing the healing effects of the two
simple autotherapies --- La-Jin and Pai-Da.
On his 40th birthday, Mr. Xiao Hongchi gave up his successful
career as a financier on Wall Street and in Hong Kong and bega
n his quest to learn Chinese medicine from special masters and
doctors in monasteries, temples, and even deep forests in Chin
a.

Over the years, he met and learned from tens of legendary me

dical masters and doctors. He mastered many medical skills a
nd arts which previously thought lost, including rare
acupuncture and acupressure theories and techniques, La-Jin a
nd Pai-Da auto-theorapies, bone-setting methods, and knife th
eorapy.

Since then, Mr. Xiao has vowed to devote his life to restoring p
eoples health and promote many of these almost-lost treasure
s of auto-therapies. He regards his path as a way to achieve
spiritual enlightenment through healing people with physical ill
ness and elevating their minds.

La-Jin: an autotherapy that you
can learn in a minute.

Extending our Jin by 1 inch will

extend our life by 10 years. On
e dies when our Jin degenerate
s completely. Flexible Jin will l
ead to good health.

Healthy people who live long

usually have flexible Jin.
Regular Jin stretching is the
best way to keep fit. The
following are 7 ways of La-Jin.
La-Jin method #1 - in reclining
position (on the La-Jin bench)

Step 1: sit down on end of the

bench, move the buttocks to
the edge of the bench; lie down
on your back

Step 2: place the left leg up

against the pillar, while the
right leg bends to touch the
ground as much as possible.

Step 3: Put the arms straight

behind your head, and keep
them flat on the chair. Keep the
position for ten minutes. Your
left leg may also do bicycling or
swing so as to relax the hip
joint

Step 4: switch the position of the

legs, and repeat the exercise
for another ten minutes. .
Notes
1 If the raised leg is curved and
somehow couldnt be pressed against
the pillar, you can bind it to the pillar
with a piece of cloth or a towel.
2 If the leg bent down could not reach
the ground, you can put a sandbag or
other weighty stuff to press the leg.
Add the pressure until the leg reaches
the ground.
3 If the arms stretching backward
could not flat on the surface of the
bench, you can hold something in the
hands to increase the pressure; or you
can also ask someone else to press the
hands, but this process should be done
in progressive manner.
4 You can tell the effect from your
Facial expression, the greater pain it
manifests, the better the effect.
Nevertheless, the pain should be
limited to a tolerable range.
In the absence of the special
bench, there is a simple way to
La-Jin
Step 1: Line up two safe and even
chairs near a wall or a doorframe;

Step 2: Sits on the chair closer to the

wall or the doorframe, move the
buttocks to the edge of the chair;

Step 3: Lie down on your back, with

right foot leaning against the door or
the wall, and the left leg curved and
pointing downward. Try to reach the
floor with the left leg. Raise both
hands and sprawl them on the chairs.
Maintain the position for 10 minutes.
In the meanwhile, you can move your
left foot in a manner similar to that of
riding a bicycle; this movement relaxes
the pelvic joints.
Step 4: Move the chairs to the other
side, shift the position of both legs and
practice it vice versa for another 10
minutes.
Effects

1This position helps the

circulation of Qi throughout
your body, which alleviates
pain, helps the discharge of
poisonous wastes and
enhances immunity and sexual
potency.
2This position produces a
shocking effect against
lumbago, skelalgia, gonyalgia,
nostalgia, menorrhalgia and
headache.
3This position is effective against
chronic diseases like
hypertension, cardiac disease,
diabetes, prostatitis,
hemorrhoid and constipation.
4This position cures insomnia,
reduces body weight and
speckles, and develops fine
body linage.
La-Jin method #2 Standing position
Particularly suitable for those who
work in offices.

1 Stand in a doorframe, raise both

arms to hold the doorframes on
both sides; stretch your arms as
much as possible.

2 Put one foot forward to do a bow

step; place the other foot behind so
that the leg can straighten as much
as possible.

3 Keep your upper body parallel to

the doorframe, keep your head
straight and your eyes looking
ahead horizontally.

4 Keep the position for three

minutes and then switch the legs
and repeat the exercise for another
three minutes .
Effects

1. This therapy stretches

the muscles and ligament
in the scapular, back,
legs and other related
body parts.

2. It can easily be practiced

at home as a therapy for
aching shoulder and
neck, periarthritis,
backache, and so on.

3. It also helps stretch the

bladder meridian at the
back of the crus.
La Jin method 3

Integrated La Jin .This

position combines the
reclining position with the
horizontal position and is
therefore a much more
difficult one.

Step 1: Lie near the joint of

two walls.

Step 2: Raise one leg and

press it against on the wall
vertically, and then try to
press the other leg against
the wall horizontally.
Effects

1. This method complements

for those who do not
benefit enough from the
reclining and standing
positions.

2. This method enhances the

dredging of liver, spleen
and kidney meridians and
is therefore effective
against spleen, stomach
and kidney disease,
diabetes, cardiac diseases
and hypertension.
Note:

If you are able to position

both legs in right angle,
Then you have very flexible
Jin. This position is an
integration of the reclining
position and horizontal
position and is therefore
more difficult. You can either
do it on your own, or ask
someone to help. Stretch
each leg for 10 minutes.
La-Jin method 4 Horizontal
position

Note:

If you wish to enhance therapy,

ask for someones assistance.
Lie in bed or on the ground,
and ask someone to press on
one leg. And then stretch the
other sideway till you can no
longer tolerate the pain. Hold
the position for 3 minutes.
Once you are done with one
leg, shift the legs and do it vice
versa.
La-Jin method 4 Horizontal
position

Method 1: lie in bed or on the

ground, and stretch both legs
sideways in opposite directions.
Practice for 10 minutes.

Method 2: lie in bed, press both

legs to the wall and stretch them
sideways in opposite directions,
like a Y.

Effect
You can adopt this method to
complement the reclining
position. If the pain still persist
around the waist, the back and
the coccygeal vertebra after you
practice the reclining position,
adopt this position.
La-Jin Method 5 Neck La Jin

It is applicable to the treatment of

cervical pain and shoulder-back pain

Method 1: Lie face up on a bed or a bench.

Stretch your head to the edge of the bed
or the bench and stretch your arms
backwards as possible as you can so that
you head can hang down .Hold this
position for three minutes.

Method 2: Sleep on your back or side

without a pillow. Because you can put
your head forward and down and make
your head remain motionless for a long
time while at work, cervical pain will
occur. This method is contrary to the
position of your head while you are at
work. It is a soft La-Jin method, which
lasts a long time. You are not accustomed
to sleeping without a pillow at the very
beginning, but you will adjust yourself in
a few days.
La-Jin Method 6
Simplified La-Jin

It combines reclining
position with standing
position. If there is a chair
or sofa, it can be used.

Step 1: Kneel down with one

leg on the ground and rest
the other leg on the chair or
sofa.

Step 2: Raise your hands up

and fold them with your
forefingers pointing to the
sky. Stretch your arms to
the basal part of your ear.

Step 3: Stretch for three to

ten minutes. The intensity
and time are up to you.
La-Jin Method 6
Simplified La-Jin

Effect

1. Your knees under the

pressure in the kneeling
position can aid the
treatment of the illness in
knee joints. Putting your
arms up can treat frozen
shoulder.

2. It will help the patient

recover from the large
part of visceral illness.

3. It is an excellent daily
health-care method.
La Jin Method 7
Squat stretching Method

It is the oldest La-Jin method.

You squat as if you were shitting.

Step 1: Squat yourself down with

your close feet pressed to the
ground.

Step 2: Hug your legs with your

hands and lower your head (The
Daoists call it baby hugging, a
pose of a baby in the womb.
Effects

1. This exercise will help stretch your

muscles in the neck, breast, waist,
back, coccygeal vertebra, crus and
activate the meridians and collaterals
in your body to facilitate the smooth
flow of Qi and blood and bowel
movement. It also helps the
treatment of a great part of such
known chronic diseases as high blood
pressure, heart disease, andrological
disease, gynecopathy, kidney
deficiency, arms deficiency,
constipation and hemorrhoids.

2. It is an excellent daily health-care

method.

Instruction

If someone cannot squat all the way

down to the ground, it doesnt matter.
If one practices often, one will
gradually be able to squat down with
his or her soles pressing the ground.
In addition to its therapeutic functions,
La-Jin can also help in diagnosis. Bodily
illness can be diagnosed from La-Jin
posture and treated in the course of the
La-Jin practice. Take the following
examples: 1 If the knees have pain and
are not able to straighten, these are
symptoms of Jin Suo, which indicates a
blockage in the Liver Meridian (the
channel related to liver), because liver
governs the Jin. A blockage in the Liver
Meridian will certainly affect the stomach
and the spleen. The liver belongs to the
wood, while the spleen belongs to the
earth, and wood influences earth.
2 If there is pain in the hip and the back of
the knees, it shows that the passage of
the Bladder Meridian is blocked, and the
kidney has problems. This is because the
bladder and the kidney are closely
connected, both belonging to the water;
neither one can be healthy if the other one
is not. Diseases caused by the blockage of
the Bladder Meridian include edema,
obesity, frequent micturition, diabetes,
and so on.
3 During La Jin in reclining position,
if Raised hands and arms cannot
reach the surface of the bench. It
is related with such diseases as
frozen shoulder, heart, lung,
head, five sense organs,
galactophore.
4 Raised leg cannot stretch straight
and lowered leg hangs in the air
without touching the ground,
which suggests that Jin Suo is
serious, and the liver, spleen,
kidney channels are not smooth,
and there will be the ache in the
waist and back or even troubles
with abodominal organs. Women
with these symptoms are likely to
have gynecopathy whereas men
with these probably have
troubles with their prostate.
Will La Jin cause damage to Jin or muscles?

1 La Jin is a natural rational exercise. Pain, numbness,

ache, swollerpain and others imply that Qi and blood
cannot flow smoothly so it requires La Jin practice to
make it smooth.
2 La Jin is a self-controlled exercise with appropriate
intensity and time. You can control it so as not to hurt
yourself with overstretching.
3 You feel painful while La-Jin, which will suggest that
something is wrong with your body. You will bring
your pain under a tolerable control by flexibly
manipulating intensity and time.
4 Beginners, patient with severe diseases, aged people
cannot stretch too much. They had better lengthen
their time of La-Jin gradually and increase their
strength bit by bit.
5 Someone said that his Jin was hard from his childhood.
In fact, hard Jin sounds a alarm for bodily troubles,
which suggests that something is wrong with liver
because liver controls the muscles. Therefore, he
should La-Jin.
6 No matter how much time or what form you use in La-
Jin, if you dont feel painful, numb and swollen, which
suggests that your bones are in the right place and
your Jins are smooth, thus Qi and blood flow
naturally.
How to La-Jin in a proper sequence?
At home or in the office, it is also
feasible to do La-Jin with the help of
furniture or other living goods.

Here we will take La-Jin in a reclining

position for example.

It does not matter if you cannot fully

stretch out your arms or make your
feet close to the pillar. Slow down
and make your body get used to the
feeling of La Jin.

If your knee goes down when you

are raising up your feet, you may
fasten it on the pillar. (La-Jin on La
Jin bench)

If your foot cannot touch the ground

when put down, you may weight it
with sandbag or other heavy stuff.
Step on something.
La-Jin is easy to learn, but be
sure you do it in a proper
sequence. Slow down your
movement to prevent from
unnecessary muscle strains.

(Phase 1) The foot on ground

may step on books in order to
better support the foot in the
air.

(Phase 2) Draw out some books

to lower down the supporting
foot.
(Phase 3) Continue to
draw out books

If you La Jin with chairs,

gradually, your arms will
be straighter and the foot
raised will be closer to
the wall.
(Phase 4) Congratulations!
Your supporting foot is
finally on the ground now.
What are the possible
physical responses brought by
La-Jin?
Type 1:
Pain, numbness, ache,
swelling pain, itchiness, and
feeling fired (yawning)
(Note)
These physical responses
above are normal reactions in
natural therapy. In traditional
Chinese medicine science, it is
called Qi Chong Bing Zao,
which means that the healthy
Qi struggles with the
sickness. To some extent, this
is the darkness before dawn
breaks.
The responses are a signal
which tells you that the
stagnated meridians are now
being dredged.
Type 2:
Erythema, blister, dizziness,
headache, hiccup, feeling sick,
phlegm, running nose, farting,
extremely stinky excrement
and urine
(Note)
1. All these responses are
detoxification reaction. When
these symptoms appear, you
should go on doing La-Jin or
Pai-Da. After the inner self-
clearing, the body condition
will gradually recover, and
you might even have the
feeling of being reborn.
2. La-Jin and Pai-Da should be
continued as daily practice
after recovering health.
However, the length and
intensity could be reduced.
Cautions for in La-Jin

1 One should wear long dress when doing La-Jin. Air-

conditioner should be turned off because the pores will
open during La Jin which might make you catch cold.
2 If it is difficult for you to practice La-Jin in lying
position, you may slightly bent your knees to ease your
pain, but do remember to draw your knees back when
landing them on the ground to avoid bowlegs.
3 Patients of hypertension, cardiac diseases,
osteoporosis or other patients with weak body
condition should first ask for doctors advice before
doing La-Jin . People who have Jin-Suo will definitely
feel painful during La-Jin, and experience high blood
pressure and rapid heartbeat. It is better to rest head
on a pillow to release the blood rush to the head.
4 The aged people, patients of osteoporosis and people
who have serious illness might faint away because of
pain. Therefore, these people should not advance too
quickly. Proper practice intensity is necessary as well
as persistence.
5 If you find your hands or feet feeling numb, or if you
have symptoms such as cold sweat or blue in the face
(called hyperventilation syndrome in western
medicine), you should cover your mouth and nose with
a paper or plastic bag to create a closed system. The
symptoms will disappear in about five minutes.
How long does it take to La-Jin in reclining
position? How about the intensity?

Time duration of La-Jin

There is no fixed time duration of La Jin.

The suggestion is ten minutes for each leg,
but this is no standard either, just for your
reference.
1.It is all right for most healthy people to
straight the raising leg and set the other
leg on the ground. However, for some
weak people, it is hard to manage.
Someone might even feel instant pain
when they lie on the chair. For these
people, La-Jin should be practiced in a
progressive manner in terms of both
duration and intensity.
2.For people who often dance or do yoga,
10 minutes of La Jin would not be difficult.
If they extend the time duration to 20
minutes or half an hour, all effects will
turn up. Chronics such as insomnia,
constipation or cardiovascular and
cerebrovascular diseases will also
disappear gradually.
Intensity of La Jin
The intensity of La Jin varies from one
practice to another and has no fixed
standard, but should also not exceed
ones suffertibility.
1.You can ask someone else to help
press your leg, or you may use
sandbags.
2.The hand that is stretched to the
back may carry weights such as
dumbbells, bags or dictionaries. This
may increase your pain, but is
definitely more effective in curing
many diseases such as frozen
shoulder, breast illness and cardiac
diseases.
3.This way of La Jin incorporated with
proper breath requires arm extension
to the back. It has obvious effects for
fat females or those ladies that have
pendulous breasts, because La Jin in
reclining position could change the
direction of the force of gravity to
breasts.
Terminology

Pai: Patting

Da: Slapping

Pai-Da: A Chinese Medical method which

utilize patting and slapping of external s
kin areas to draw out and eliminate
poisonous waste in body and restore hea
lth by facilitating the smooth flow of Qi t
hroughout the meridians

Sha: poisonous blood

What are the principles of Pai-Da?

1 Skin is closely related to the meridians, our

limbs, five viscera, six entrails and nine
apertures (including the eyes, ears,
nostrils, mouth, urethra and anus).
2 Pai Da will launch ones faith and mental
forces, and will stimulate relevant
meridians to dredge the Qi. The running Qi
will in turn bring out the running of blood.
The unobstructed meridians could cure
diseases.
3 The patted and slapped parts on the body
will automatically gather Qi and blood, and
then accelerate the circulation. As
sweepers, the intensified Qi could scan the
body and dredge the obstructed meridians.
As a result, the body waste, illnesses and
even tumors will be cleared.
4 Viewing from the perspective of the western
medicine, Pai-Da is a positive-breaking
therapy which will stimulate the central
nervous system. Therefore, the inner body
systems could be activated and help repair
the damaged parts, and finally improve the
immunity function of human body.
Generally speaking, there is
an up-down turn as follows:
(Step 1) Pat the head
Pat the top of the head with
both hands
Pat the sides of the head with
both hands
Pat the back of the head with
both hands
Pat the back of the head with
one hand (one hand is more
convenient, and could nicely
cover the head)
(Step 2) Slap the back of the
shoulder
Pat the right side with left
hand, and the left side with
the right hand; remember to
pat all sides of the shoulder
(Step 3) Slap both armpits and the
inner sides of the shoulder
Patients with cardiac diseases, lung
diseases and breast diseases should do
this step more.
(Step 4) Slap the inner sides of the
elbow joints
Including all meridians of the inner
sides which include the heart-channel
of the inner sides and the lung-channel
and the large intestine channel at the
rims of the outer sides, as well as the
pericardium channel in the middle
(Step 5) Slap the knees
Pat the fronts of the knees with both
hand and make sure that the knee is
covered by the whole palm; pat the
inner sides, outer sides and the
popliteal spaces.
This step could be applied to cure all
foot and leg diseases. La-Jin as
supplement will bring better results.
(Step 6) Slap the feet
Pat the arches, insteps and the
ankles with power. This step can
not only cure the foot diseases, but
also bring good curative effects for
all internal organ diseases.
(Step 7) Slap any body-parts
according to the need
After all the six steps above, you
may Pai-Da any body-parts
according to your illness.

What if there is no enough time?

Pat the following important parts:

For most chronic and acute
diseases, the elbows, knees, groins
and feet are the focus, because
these parts have the most toxins,
and are the concentrated areas of
meridians, blood vessels, nerves
and lymph.
How to Pai-Da in a proper way?
1 Pat and slap attentively
Concentration and faith will increase the positive
energy in your body. Distracting thoughts could
bring negative effects.
2 Pat and slap with power
If you feel the pain of slapping, that means you are
on the right way. The pain will eliminate the illness.
3 Pat and slap with your mind
When slapping the skin, you can imagine that you
are injecting fresh Qi into the body and bringing out
the turbid Qi out.
4 Use your palms and fingers in a proper way
When slapping a larger area such as the front of the
knees, use both palm and fingers; if the area is
relatively small, such as the popliteal space , you
could mainly use the fingers with agile movement of
the wrist.
5Best to recite or chant mantras or scriptures while
patting and slapping: Reciting mantras or scriptures
will bring a better result; you may choose your
favorite mantras or scriptures.
The time length of Pai-Da, the frequency
of Pai-Da
1Pai-Da can be done at any time in a day. You
can form a habit of Pai-Da and Pat and slap
in the morning and at night or you can do
this in the morning, afternoon and at night.
2 For healthy people, you can pat the head,
shoulders, armpits, elbows and knees for
one to five minutes each time. You should
at least do this once or twice a day.
3 For sub-health cases, besides Pai-Da the
parts mentioned above, you can pat and sla
p the nidus for a longer time. Generally the
time length should be between five to thirty
minutes for once or twice a day. You can
also Pai-Da more times each day.
4 For those who feel under the weather or
have obvious nidus should pat or slap the
nidus for at least half an hour each time.
For example, those who suffer from knee
pains, frozen shoulder , cervical
spondylosis, headache and insomnia can
pat and slap the knees and elbows more
frequently for at least once or twice a day.
5 For those who suffer from serious illnesses,
such as people who are unable to lift the
shoulders or walk, or suffer from
psoriasis , heart disease, high blood
pressure, diabetes or cancer should rash-
pat top-down from the head to the feet
with the focus on the elbows, knees, feet
and the nidus for at least one hour and at
least three times a day. And the time
length of each Pai-Da should be reduced as
the disease remises.
6 After several times of Pai-Da, it is not as
easy to have Sha as before but if you
continue Pai-Da it can promotes blood
circulation, keep you fit and even treat the
disease.
7 The time length and frequency of Pai-Da
varies according to individuals. Whether
there is Sha or not after Pai-Da, it can be
applied everyday to both the sick and the
health.
8 One Pai-Da session can also be divided into
several sessions with each session focuses
on one particular part of the body.
 The time length of Pai-Da
Directions:
1 For health care you can slap from head to foot for fifteen to twenty
minutes.For the people who suffer from serious illnesses the time for
Pai-Da should be one hour at least. After Sha has appeared you should
keep slapping. Because Sha is the poisonous blood, it reveals the body
waste, illnesses. Keep slapping can clear them off. The body will finish
the elmination of toxicant as Sha disappears .Thats the secret of the
magic effect of Pai-Da.

2 For the difference of physical condition and the strength of slapping

from individuals, its quite different from each other that how long you
should pat and slap until Sha appears and then disappears. So the
maximum length of time of Pai-Da varies from person to person. We
kindly suggest that aged people ,children, the weak, and severely sick
persons should follow in proper sequence during their Pai-Da.

3 For daily health care we suggest you pat the head, slap the back of
the shoulder, both armpits and the inner sides of the shoulder, slap the
inner sides of the elbow joints, the knees, the minimum length of time
for each position is one minute.

4 For the purpose of treatment, besides Pai-Da the parts mentioned

above, you can pat and slap the nidus for a longer time. Generally the
minimum length of time should be five minutes for each position.
How to tell the health situation from the
color of the sha?
Sha, i.e. poisonous blood, is the colorful thing on
the skin after Pai-Da. If you Pai-da the healthy
parts of the body with the same amount of force,
there wont be Sha; otherwise the unhealthy body
will show symptoms on the skin after Pai-da .
Sha reflects the illness of the body; otherwise the
skin wont have Sha coming along after Pai-da .
More sha means more serious of the disease.
The darker the color of the Sha, the more poison,
coldness, heat and other pathogenic factors are in
the body.
Rubeosis: healthy; normal
Red: wind-heat; usually can be found with the
sub-health group
Purple red: stasis-heat and it is prone to feel pain

Cyan: phlegm-dampness and it is prone to feel

tired
Purple black: stasis; shows the patient suffers
from a large accumulation of body endotoxin and
microcirculatory disturbance
Black: shows the patient suffers from chronic
disease and has been taking medication for a long
time.
According to the position of the Sha,
one can tell the illness or the potential
illness of the corresponding organs and
the Sha itself also shows the body has
started the reduction body endotoxin
and the treatment.

The Sha will come out within a minute

after the Pai-Da with those who suffer
from clogging blood circulation and
their Sha comes faster and the color of
the Sha is darker than usual.
Some people will have red Sha
first and if keep patting and
slapping the color will turn dark
purple or even dark masses.

Some people wont have Sha

until several times Pai Da, which
means their focus lies deeper
and it can only be scraped away
gradually and it also means the
body endotoxin is being reduced.

Some people will have Sha the

first time they have Pai-Da and
dont have Sha afterwards and
may have Sha again later, which
means their body situation and
mood are undergoing some
changes.
Cautions
1Take shelter from the wind when patting
Air-conditioner and electric fan should be turned off
because the pores will open during Pai-Da which
might make you catch cold.
2Remember to have enough water after Pai-Da
Drinking a cup of water before and after Pai-Da could
supply the consumed water during the exercise. It will
also prevent fatigue and accelerate metabolism.
3Bathing after Pai-Da
Take bath three hours after Pai-Da with warm water.
4Treat skin diseases with Pai-Da
Use all fingers and the whole palm when slapping a
large area of skin, such as the front of the knees. For
skin diseases like psoriasis, pat with power for longer
time.
Do not use Pai-Da to treat trauma or festering
wounds.
5Treat diabetes mellitus, varicosity and edema of the
lower limbs
For patients of diabetes mellitus, patting should be
light and slow because their skin and vessels are weak
and fragile. For patients with varicosity and edema of
the lower limbs, it is better for them to pat from the
bottom to top gently, so as to accelerate the blood
circulation.
