Characteristics of traditional health-keeping exercise

(1) Under the guidance of TCM theory, all traditional body postures are based on TCM theories of Yin and Yang, viscera, qi and blood, and meridians. The basic points of sports health care are nourishing essence, practicing qi and regulating mind. Taking dynamic form as the basic form of exercise, the coordination and unity of form, spirit, qi, blood, exterior and interior in sports health care are explained by holistic view. In addition, the imaginary, real, dynamic and static movements in body-building exercises are guided by the theory of Yin and Yang, while the flexion and extension and pitching of movements are guided by the opening and closing movements. It can be seen that every movement and style of fitness exercise is closely related to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine.

(2) Pay attention to the unity of consciousness, pranayama and body posture, and emphasize the unity of consciousness, pranayama and body posture, that is, the coordination between thoughts, breathing and body movements. Intention refers to concentration; Pranayama refers to regulating breathing; Dynamic form refers to the movement of the body, and unity is to realize the unity of form and spirit; Meaning and qi go hand in hand; The sense of shape and qi makes the body harmonious inside and outside, and the movement and static are born together. Only in this way can we play the role of health and fitness.

(3) the integration of guidance, qigong, martial arts and medicine. For thousands of years, people have gained a lot of valuable experience in health care practice and formed a health care method with China characteristics, which integrates guidance, qigong, martial arts and medicine. The techniques derived from guided qigong include Wuqinxi and Baduanjin. Tai Ji Chuan, Taijijian and other martial arts achievements. However, no matter what kind of exercise is applied to health preservation, it emphasizes intentional defense, pranayama and dynamic shape, with the aim of dredging qi and blood meridians, activating bones and muscles and regulating viscera. Integrating the strengths of each family is another major feature of exercise health.

Characteristics of Taoist Health-keeping Movement

In the biological world, especially human life activities have the characteristics of exercise, which our ancestors realized long ago, so Taoist health experts have advocated exercise health since ancient times. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, sports have already appeared and are regarded as an important means of fitness and disease prevention. "Zhuangzi" said: "Breathe, get rid of the old and get rid of the new, and the bear has made his life. This person who guides and raises the shape is also the favorite of examiner Peng Zushou. This shows that there were many people who used guidance and other methods to exercise at that time.

The Taoist concept of health preservation is based on the theory of both form and spirit. God is the master of form. If you want to be full of form, you must first manage God. God, including life function and spiritual consciousness, is the product of human body. On the one hand, it regulates the information instructions of physiological activities, so that life activities can be carried out normally; On the other hand, it accepts external stimuli, produces mental thinking activities, directs the nervous system, and ensures people to make appropriate responses in the social and natural fields. Therefore, God plays an active leading role in the human body, and health preservation is the first. Taoist sports health preservation is aimed at the dominant position and characteristics of arrogance, maintaining the spirit through quietness and internal defense, and maintaining a healthy and disease-free state.

Shape is God's house, and health care must also keep shape. Form is the place of life activities, and life activities must be attached to form. When people are born, they become refined first, then refined, and the brain is born. That is to say, in the process of growth and development, people first form tissues and organs, then produce physiological functions, and finally produce spiritual consciousness. Spirit does not come directly from essence, but from form. Body standard not only produces life function and spiritual thinking, but also determines mental state. Only by moving limbs, stretching muscles and bones, circulating blood and conditioning the body can people rely on God and live a long life. It can be seen that form and spirit are inseparable, and both form and spirit are born. Only by nourishing the body and mind can the overall optimization of human life function be realized, which is the premise and foundation of health and longevity.

God belongs to Yang, and it is easy to move and disperse in life activities, so quietness should be the most important thing to nourish the spirit. The shape is yin, easy to be quiet and less moving, and need to be raised and moved. By moving and nourishing the shape, calming and nourishing the heart, and combining the movement with the movement, we can achieve the goal of both form and spirit. Tao Hongjing also said: Being quiet leads to longevity. Taoist sports health advocates the cultivation of both form and spirit with nourishing the spirit as the core, and the action of shaping is by no means a simple action or a blind action. Any effective movement of the body can not be separated from the restriction of mental peace. In sports, the concentration of consciousness, the relaxation of body and mind, and the natural tranquility of expression are very important, and one stroke and one style must conform to the law, reflecting the meaning of quietness and lightness; Static is not as static as water in body movement, but implies movement, implies reasonable movement of mental consciousness and guides external changes of body movement. The secret of Taoist health-keeping movement lies in the combination of static and dynamic, static to resist movement, dynamic to maintain shape, static to maintain spirit, static and dynamic combination, both form and spirit.

Moving to shape modification, focusing on air guidance. Guiding qi can make harmony, pulling the body can make softness, and qi harmony can make the body soft, and longevity is desirable. By guiding the circulation of qi and other forms of exercise, breathing essence, circulating health, relaxing bones and muscles, and smoothing joints, we can achieve the purpose of strengthening the body and eliminating diseases. Guiding art has a long history and various forms, including breathing movement, limb movement, instrument movement and bionic movement, which are mainly manifested in two categories: body guidance and mind guidance. Body guidance emphasizes the activity of the outer limbs, which makes the meridians and blood flow smoothly by moving the limbs, raising hands and feet, shaking the bones and muscles, pressing the flesh and so on, belonging to the architectural category. Idea guidance pays attention to the guidance of mind, mind and qi, also known as meridian guidance, including small Sunday guidance with Ren Du's second pulse as the main line and big Sunday guidance with the whole body meridian guidance, which belongs to the category of static work.

The function of exercising to maintain health is to prevent diseases that have not happened, to ventilate the qi that is out of harmony, to exercise to make the official qi unobstructed, and to close the three palaces to coagulate blood. It is really a great method of maintaining health and a metaphysical technique of removing diseases. The principle of keeping fit is easy and healthy. One or more methods can be practiced selectively on the premise of not hurting or hurting. Taoist health care emphasizes that the amount and intensity of exercise should be appropriate and should be measured by oneself. Ge Hong said in "Bao Puzi's Extreme Words": "The prescription of health preservation is that you can't spit far, act fast, listen hard, watch for a long time, and lie tired. ..... I don't want to work hard, I don't want to get up late, I don't want to sweat, I don't want to sleep more, I don't want to run around, I don't want to overlook. " Tao Hongjing's "Records of Health Preservation and Teaching Commandments" said: "The way to raise people is not to walk for a long time. People who sit for a long time, watch and listen for a long time ... will live for a long time. Sun Simiao put it more clearly: "The way to keep fit is not to play games, to use strength, to lift weights and to sprint", and "I often want to do some small work, but I am extremely tired and strong. This view of moderate activity has greatly promoted the development of various Taoism and internal training methods, and it still has high value of health preservation and fitness.
