Hi, FK,

>- so, since with auto-immune disorders the body is, in effect, attacking itself you are saying that the person is turning their heart-fire (Yang) energy on themselves??

>- what if any Intention do you link to this??
Honestly, I don't know. Most people don't seem to have any particular conscious intent for the energy that goes through their meridians. (The energy does go through nevertheless. Of course.)
>- one might suggest that Intention by the 'client' to use the Yin energy would be needed as well in order for balance to be restored
It helps if, e.g., the "client" can "breath the energy in." It also helps if the client can also do exercises to boost his or her water-based kidney energy.
>- what 'improvements' would you say you have noticed in rheumatoid cases?
Diminishment or cessation of pain, less frequent recurrence, greater range of motion.
