The Four Elements System

Quick Start Guide

Step 1: Correct Playing And Use Of
Materials
How to use the 4 Elements Training System

The 4 Elements System has been designed with the ease of use for the end
user and trainee in mind. In general, everything is done for you, and you
only have to think about issues related to implementation.

There are a couple of quick points to note:

Listen to Xinyu Material on stereo headphones. The material in the 4

Elements Xinyu Gong have powerful neurology-changing technology and
Taoist Xinyu Mind language embedded, and this needs to be experienced in
stereo.

Use a high quality media player. Jon Anxin recommends VLC media
player, because it will cover all types of multimedia formats used in The 4
Elements System

Step 2: Using The Four Elements Training
System for the first time
They say that you never get a second chance to make a first impression.
Similarly, you never get a second chance to have a first impression made
upon you.

The 4 Elements System has been designed to follow a very specific

sequence, which is based on thousands of hours of real world training and
EEG data, and its important that you follow this process the first time you
go through 4QP2.

Subsequent review and revision can take place at your own pace, and in
any order you choose.

http://www.thefourelements.net
Here is an over view of the basic process youre going through now,
along with further instructions.

http://www.thefourelements.net
Listen to the 4 Elements Xinyu Gong audio first. This is an important
first step in retraining yourself for maximum success, leverage and power in
the 4 Elements System. This material has been scientifically tested over the
course of multiple years on Jon Anxin, his students, monks, meditators,
martial artists, influential people and leaders, etc. and will quickly and easily
propel the rest of your training into the stratosphere.

Watch the entire video series. Watch in the following order:

a. Introduction
b. Earth
c. Water
d. Fire
e. Air
f. 4 Elements Standing Power
g. 4 Elements Boxing
h. 4 Elements Meditation

The video training component of the 4 Elements System will give you an
overview of the high levels of power and theory behind power in each of
the 4 Elements Quadrants.

http://www.thefourelements.net
 Try The 4 Elements Standing Power (Stance Training). Create your
own standing postures, preferably Zhan Zhuang style wheel holding
postures, representing the elements of Earth, Water, Fire, and Air.

Generally, when developing static standing postures, you want to

use a basing wheel holding posture, like the following:

The basic hand/arm positions for each of the four quadrants should be:

a. Earth. Low wheel holding position or movement below the waistline.

b. Water. Mid-chest level wheel holding position or movent.
c. Fire. Head/eye level wheel holding position or movement.
d. Air. Above the head wheel holding position or movement.

http://www.thefourelements.net
Practice:

1. Begin the practice of 4 Elements Power Standing by warming up

with several minutes of The 4 fold breath.

The basic 4 fold breath patter is a count of four for inhale/hold/exhale.

You can sub-vocalize this in the beginning as: In, two, three, four,
Hold, two, three, four, Out, two, three, four.

2. Put yourself at effect rather than at cause by pressing your

hands together in the wai/praying position, and pushing out to
both sides, while forcefully exhaling.

http://www.thefourelements.net
At this stage, rather than listening to the precision repatterning music, you
might want to begin training the basic xinyu or mind language of the 4
Elements for each movement while holding the static posture.

Here are the very basic Xinyus or Mind Languages that you should focus
on, and repeat mentally like a mantra while holding each of the positions (for
example, while holding the Earth posture, repeat the Earth xinyu):

Earth: I am solid.
I am calm.
I am disciplined.
Under pressure, I resist.

Water: I am adaptable and strong.

I am open and accepting.
My sense of balance is more than just physical.
Under Pressure, I adapt.

Fire: I am inspiring.
http://www.thefourelements.net
 I am happy and positive.
I have confident presence.
Under pressure, I keep going.

Air: I am peaceful.
I am dispassionate.
I am perceptive.
Under Pressure, I get out of the way.

Alternatively, you can just put on your headphones (you need to use
headphones to get the full benefits of The Four Elements entrainment
protocols), and listen to each of The Four Element Xinyus while holding the
appropriate posture for as long as possible.

3. Begin Holding The 4 Elements Postures while listening to or sub-

vocalizing the Xinyu Audio

The Earth Posture:

http://www.thefourelements.net
This is a basic wheel holding posture at the level of the Earth Qi Ji, or the
Earth Energy Machine.

Begin from the wai/praying hand position, and slowly and comfortably move
your hands down to the earth posture, and hold for as long as possible,
while listening to the Xinyu of Earth.

When you have finished, return your hands to the wai/prayer position, and
comfortably move into the Water posture.

The Water Posture:

This wheel holding posture is held at the chest level, or the approximate
level of the Water Qi Ji for as long as possible, while sub-vocalizing the
basic Water Xinyu, or listening to the Water Xinyu audio on stereo
headphones.

The Fire Posture:

http://www.thefourelements.net
The Fire posture is held with the hands above the shoulders, and the palms
turned in towards the head or the Fire Qi Ji while sub-vocalizing the basic
Fire Xinyu or listening to the Fire Xinyu Audio.
The Air Posture:

http://www.thefourelements.net
The Air posture is held with the hands high above the shoulders and over
the head, with the palms turned inward while sub-vocalizing the basic Air
Xinyu or listening to the Air Xinyu Audio.

4. After the first week, begin incorporating the 4 Elements Xinyu

Gong Audio and Visualization Of The 4 Great Energy Machines.

So, the practice, in general basically follows these steps:

1. Warm up for several minutes with the 4 fold breathing. After the warm
up, you can just breath naturally during the exercises.
2. Hold each elemental posture for as long as possible.
3. While holding the postures, listen to the 4 Elements Xinyu Gong on
headphones.
4. While holding the postures and listening to Xinyu, begin visualizing
each of the 4 great energy machines. For example, while holding the
earth posture and listening to the earth xinyu, you would visualize the
earth energy machine turning counter clockwise (from your pov), and
http://www.thefourelements.net
 gathering or collecting earth energy. While holding the water posture
and listening to the water xinyu, visualize the water energy machine
turning counter clockwise and collecting water energy.

5. Begin practicing the basic punches of 4 Elements Boxing.

After having gone through the stance training, immediately move to

practicing each of the 4 punches of 4 elements boxing.

Earth Footwork
Water Parries
Fire Punches
Air Neck/Head manipulation

At this point, you probably wont be able to do very well with the boxing part
of the system, but we want to quickly condition the connections between
Posture/Sound/Visualization/Energy.

6. Do at least 30 minutes of 4 Elements Meditation practice daily.

None of these steps necessarily must be done immediately after each other.

For example, its possible that you might only have time to do one intro step
per day, and that is fine.

It will generally be best to go through the entire boot up of the 4 Elements

System from standing power, to boxing drills, to meditation at the same
time, however.

7. Complete each of the workbooks for The 4 Elements System.

Youll routinely re-examine this material, and will write and rewrite your
answers, but its important to establish your starting point.

http://www.thefourelements.net
 8. Join the Discussion forums at EarthWaterFireAir.com to ask any
questions you might have, and to begin forging powerful associations
with others who are training in the 4 Quadrants Of Power.

9. Post regular results/experience reports at EarthWaterFireAir.com

to monitor your own progress, attainment and development and help
inspire others to continue in their own development with The Four
Elements System.

http://www.thefourelements.net
Post boot up
After going through the boot up training for the 4 Elements System, spend a
minimum of 10 days to listen to the Xinyu audio suite and watch the training
videos again.

Step 4: Accelerate!

After the first 2 weeks of boot up and Post boot up training, you should have
a good understanding of the PSVE framework.

Begin improvising, or playing jazz in The 4 Elements System. Practice

combining different parts of the system in training. For example, practice
the 4 Elements Meditation while doing the standing exercise. Listen to the
Precision Repatterning music while training 4 Elements Boxing.

http://www.thefourelements.net
Step 5: Lift Off. . .
By now, youll have a firm understanding of the basics of The 4 Elements
Training System, and youre already beginning to notice rapid improvements
in your martial, leadership, strategic and meditative abilities.

Its time to begin sharing the training with others, by:

Starting a 4 Elements System meetup training group in your area
Listening to the Precision repatterning audio
Practicing standing stance training
Practicing 4 elements boxing
Creating or supporting 4 Elements System activities with online
colleagues or in your own 4 Elements System meetup training group.
