Update: I called the TCM place, and they told me they do herbs and acupuncture only. I looked at the website of the local branch of a TCM college; same thing. They probably don't dare make any more claims than that for fear of the FDA.
I did a web-search for "Kundalini" and found a lot of pages about "Kundalini Awakening". Many of them touted how cosmic your awareness can be after having one, and downplayed the lethal potential of it. Most that I clicked on and read were lists of symptoms of a Kundalini Awakening, only a few of which matched mine.
Out of an (I hope adequate) abundance of caution, I will continue not doing either practice for another couple of weeks, and then venture a try of one of my Chinese forms. No more Essene Healing Hands, I think, unless I find out the coast is clear. The Chinese forms are my first love-- I've been practicing them for 20 years-- so I don't want to lose them. It's a shame about the Essene Healing Hands, though, I was hoping to get good at that.
