The following QiGong practices, when practiced daily, greatly increase the strength
of the kidneys:
Kidney Breathing
Stand in a QiGong stance, feet shoulder width apart and knees slightly bent.
Cover the kidneys with the palms of your hands, allowing the heat of the palms to
warm the kidneys. (You can rub the palms together to create the heat before holding
the kidneys)

Smile.
Stand a bit wider than shoulder width apart.
Make loose fists and put them together in front of your chest.
Bend down so that the back is parallel to the ground or forearms resting on
the chair if you are using the chair. The back has to be as flat as a table
and the head aligning the spine with chin slightly tucked in. You may need
to check your position in a mirror.
5. Smile to your kidneys.
6. Breathe into the kidneys as you remain in this position for 30 seconds or
until you feel the pain in the legs.
7. Through the daily practice, increase the time to one to five or to ten minutes
without having the pain in the legs. This practice needs some time to train
the muscles.

NOTE: You may feel heat building up in your head which needs releasing through
the The Water Buffalo posture.
Smile.
Release the fists and forearms while slightly squatting down.
Let the arms hanging in front.
Relax, inhale less but exhale more.
Focus in exhaling and use the hands to guide the energy from the lower
abdomen and the groin out of your body. (The heat that was built up in the
head from The Turtle will be released and balanced in the body) Exhale
this energy out 9 times.
*Contra indications for The Golden Turtle and The Buffalo postures:
Postures are not suitable for people with high blood pressure. Please consult your
doctors before practicing them. The best practice for the kidneys may be to just
smile, get in touch with them and keep them warm.
