Dan tien.

[Dariak]

After doing yoga for roughly 3 years I decided to try something different and move into Qigong.

Could someone tell me the difference between the dan tien and the chakras? Or are the 3 dan tien just 3 of the 7 chakras but given different names?

I think they are related to certain chakras. Much information have been corrupted so in the end i trust more the Jos. You can definitily do Qi Gong but i find that yoga is more powerful (especially when you put more things togheter like mantra's or/and pranayama while you do Asana).

The dan tian are different from the chakras. That’s all i know. You will have more luck askingg this on the asian subforum.
