It is the basic quality and important premise to practice health qigong to start qi circulation and guide qi with shape. Therefore, in the "Six-character Tactics of Fitness Qigong", it is required to start the air conditioner. In the "function" of the first form of "Twelve Stages of Fitness Qigong Brocade", there is also a requirement that "the invisible heart can purify the brain, support the body and mind, unify the mind and start the machine of qi circulation". Here, the practitioner is also required to start the air conditioner at the beginning of the first style. It can be said that all the exercises of health qigong require starting the qi-moving machine at the beginning of the exercise. Therefore, how to start Qigong is the key point of practicing Qigong, which is in urgent need of breakthrough. Seeking a breakthrough in understanding, starting with air pool is an introduction to acrobatics. If you don't practice qigong, you won't get started. Starting the qi machine means feeling the growth of internal gas, which means the beginning of internal gas growth, just like the moment when the engine starts. After that moment, the engine will always be in the starting state. In the same way, after the "Qi" in the body (Dantian) of the body-building qigong practitioner is started, the internal Qi can always grow. The moment when qi begins is called the beginning of qi. Starting qigong is the only way for health qigong practitioners to improve their level. Strictly speaking, feeling the internal qi is the real practice, or practicing Qigong is the real introduction. Just having a graceful posture without internal qi running in the body, this is called "empty description", which belongs to the flower shelf and is still a layman to health qigong. Fitness qigong can't enter the room without breaking through the way of starting the true qi, otherwise it will take a detour and it is difficult to rise to the level of practicing the true qi. Start the air compressor to run. The word "Qi" often appears in health qigong literature. Only the six-character formula of health qigong has 10 positions, and the word "qi" is also mentioned in the 200 questions of health qigong. Simply put, the circulation of qi is the movement of qi. Qi movement mainly refers to the up-and-down opening and closing of qi. The six-character formula of fitness qigong "makes the qi of dantian rise to the chest", and the feelings before and after starting the qi machine are different. When you feel the start of Qi, you can feel the movement of Qi more truly. How can there be gas operation without starting the gas machine? It's like finding no water. How can you say that you have seen the flow of water? Therefore, if there is no feeling of internal qi running, it is just empty talk to say that "external guidance is an expert", because "expert" refers to the operation of qi in the body. Only by starting the air compressor can the air be put back to normal. If you practice health qigong, you can't vent your qi back to Yuan without starting the Qi machine. If you don't start the qi machine, you won't feel the inner qi, and you won't know where it is. I don't know where the gasoline is. Can I return it? Therefore, people who don't feel the internal qi can't feel where the qi went at the end of the practice. It's like I don't know where the warehouse is and where the grain is stored. Dantian is a warehouse for storing internal gas. If you want to return the internal gas to Dantian, you must first find the "gas storage" where the air conditioner is started. Start the gas machine and get everything done. Practicing health qigong, without starting the qi machine, the whole body will not work. Whole body qi (feeling of whole body qi) means that after starting the qi machine, it will run for a period of time, and then it will feel. To achieve full body qi, we must start from starting the qi machine. In other words, from the initiation of intention to the beginning of action, you can feel that when you start the Qi machine, the qi in your body is more sufficient and the operation of the Qi machine is clearer, and the scene of "being popular all over" slowly appears. When the body feels more and more delicious, practicing Qigong will naturally change from the passive stage of "asking me to practice" to the active stage of "asking me to practice", and then the whole body will be integrated, moving and motionless. A single spark can start a prairie fire. "A single spark" is to start the qi movement, and "starting a prairie fire" is to start the whole body. So Qiqi is an entry ticket to practicing Qigong. As a health qigong enthusiast, we must improve our understanding of this and strive to make a breakthrough. In practice, it is a practical process to start a gas engine through a breakthrough, and Tian Dan is an important part of starting a gas engine. To make a breakthrough in practice, we must work hard in Dantian. Where is Tian Dan? Only when you start the Qi machine can you really feel where your abdomen is. Theoretically, it is very important to know where the abdomen is, and always think about that part when practicing. The four methods of health qigong are different in the abdomen: Yijinjing is "one inch and five points below the navel" at Qihai point; Wuqinxi is located in the center of the lower abdomen under the navel, equivalent to Guanyuan point (3 inches below the navel); The six-character prescription is in the navel, that is, Shenque point; The preparation trend of Baduanjin is "two arms are everted, two arms are raised in an arc shape in front of the abdomen, which is the same height as the navel ..." This shows that the abdomen is in the navel, and the sixth phase of health qigong in 2006, from "shaking your head and wagging your tail to removing heart fire" to "removing all diseases in your back"-the key points and requirements of health qigong practice after Baduanjin. The ninth page of "200 Questions of Fitness Qigong" reads: "Xiadantian's lower abdomen under the navel is related to Shenque, Guanyuan, Qihai and Mingmen points, and is the area within these points. The usual Tian Dan refers to Xiadantian. " Where the hell is Tian Dan? The author's answer is: "All the above parts are right." Why do health qigong have so many views on Tian Dan? The author thinks: first, we should respect and inherit the traditional achievement method; Second, although there are so many arguments about the abdomen, it does not affect the start-up of the qi machine; Third, as long as you start the qi machine and have enough internal qi, you can think of what part of the abdomen is. This is called "Qi is the key to success, and no gas is the only way". You will naturally know where your abdomen is after starting the qi machine. What is Tian Dan like? Only when you start the qi machine can you really feel what dantian looks like. Tian Dan has a range, but when I understand this range, I feel that there is no clear boundary; The ancients believed that the human body had its own "elixir of life" and there was no need to seek secret recipes. The part that can produce "Dan medicine" is called Dantian. The "gas storage" and "pneumatic machine" above and the "air pump" below are all used to describe what the abdomen looks like. In fact, it doesn't matter what Tian Chan looks like in theory, because it will still be slim without air conditioning, and you can really know it if you turn on air conditioning. What is the role of Tian Dan? The author briefly describes his two feelings: (1) Dantian is the place where qi circulation begins, the source of internal qi growth and the power source of internal qi circulation in the body. (2) If the heart is a "blood pump", the blood is pumped to all parts of the body through one collection and one release; Then Tian Dan is an "air pump", which circulates it to all parts of the body by turning on and off the internal air pump. Practicing health qigong is to constantly increase the role of this "air pump" so as to achieve the effect of practicing qigong. It is a common method to start the qi machine by leaving the abdomen. Fitness qigong exercises pay attention to the heart in Tian Dan, and generate qi by starting the air conditioner in Tian Dan. From the code words of the four methods, we can see that the rise and fall of Wuqinxi has the meaning of "guarding the abdomen"; Baduanjin preparation has the tendency of "keeping the abdomen" and "sinking the abdomen" in collection; The six-character formula of "pulling the palm, pulling the palm" means pulling back the navel, and "pressing the navel" means pulling back the navel. The "navel" here actually refers to the abdomen; Yijinjing has the tendency of "God does not exceed" and also has the tendency of "God does not exceed" and "God does not exceed". Here, "God does not overstep the moment" refers to guarding the abdomen or the whole body, and here, "downward guidance" also refers to guiding air to the abdomen and sinking the abdomen. Therefore, although the passwords of the four methods are different, each method attaches importance to defending the abdomen. Staying in the abdomen is the basic skill of health qigong practice, and it is a convenient and quick way to promote qi. There are many practical ways and means to break through and start the gas engine, and all roads lead to Rome. Then, if you want to enter the training state in a short time, you need to grasp the key points. Because practitioners have different ontological concepts, the focus of choosing exercises should also vary from person to person in order to feel the start of Qi. Take myself as an example, I started by practicing the six-character formula. I feel that the six-character formula attaches importance to practicing Qi, which is conducive to breaking through and starting Qi. From the catalogue of four qigong teaching materials, we can see which is the key point: the first feature of Yijinjing is "stretching and pulling bones and muscles", and the first focus of practice is "relaxing the spirit and integrating form and meaning"; The second martial arts feature of Wuqinxi is "stretching limbs and moving joints", the third is "introducing foreign experts, and the form is scattered and full of meaning", and the four practice points are arranged according to "form, spirit, meaning and spirit"; The third feature of Ba Duan Jin Kung Fu is "the unity of spirit and form, in which qi lies". In particular, the first article of the practice essentials of Yijinjing clearly points out that "the spirit is relaxed and the form and meaning are integrated": "When practicing, the body should be nursed back to health". As can be seen from the above, these three methods attach importance to the combination of form and meaning, and put the practice of form in the first place. The six-character formula is different. It puts practice in the first place. The second characteristic of the six-character formula is "breathing guidance, both internal and external cultivation", and the second cultivation focus is "intentional in the breath (breathing) and intentional in the form". It can be seen that the six-character formula of health qigong is mainly based on practicing qi. The six-character formula attaches importance to the field list, which is conducive to breaking through and starting the gas machine. "navel-centered" in the "six-character health qigong tactics" is actually centered on dantian. Where is the "gas refining" mentioned in the "six-character tactics of health qigong"? First in Tian Dan; Where does "turn on the air conditioner" start? Dantian; Where can I keep "nourishing qi"? Dantian; Where to go from "guiding qi to yuan" All the movements of the six-character formula in Dantian are guided around the center of Dantian, and the anti-abdominal breathing of the six-character formula begins to open and close from Dantian. Therefore, if you practice the six-character formula correctly, Qi will definitely start to sprout from the abdomen in a short time. Six-character formula attaches importance to adjusting interest rate, which is conducive to breakthrough and starting qi. Six-character formula is an excellent method to exercise internal qi (including qi circulation and luck) with Dantian as the core, pranayama as the focus and reverse abdominal breathing as the main means. The six-character formula pays special attention to dantian, which provides an excellent place for qi. The six-character formula pays special attention to reverse abdominal breathing, which provides an excellent means for starting the qi machine. The author once summed up the "three treasures of skills" of the six-character formula: Dantian is a treasure place for practicing qi, reverse abdominal breathing is a treasure method for practicing qi, and internal qi is a precious fruit. Practice tells us that only by grasping the key points can we dissect sparrows and draw inferences from others. According to my experience, practicing the summoning tactics in the six-character formula is more helpful to master the essentials of starting the qi machine. Specifically, the first bidding tactic is the simplest. At first glance, the action called the word tactic is just an opening and closing, which is relatively simple. However, from the avenue to Jane, "the law is expensive and the work is subtle", and the technology is expensive. The simpler the practice method, the better. This is a bidding tactic with only one opening and closing action, but it is a very kung fu tactic. Because it is a big expansion in the air centered on Tian Dan. Secondly, it is most convenient to coordinate the calling words. Summon tactics are simple, so it is most convenient to break through the coordination of breathing, breathing and breathing, and guiding actions. The opening and closing of a leading movement of nothing formula just matches the opening and closing of a reverse abdominal breathing, which has a unique "taste" in practice. At the beginning of practice, it can meet the requirement of "the opening and closing of movements corresponds to the opening and closing of internal breathing" in the six-character formula of health qigong. Through the high coordination between the opening and closing of the abdomen and the opening and closing of the guiding action, the breathing style breaks through the length and volume of breathing, and then breaks through the requirements of the six-character "even, thin and soft" breathing. Therefore, it is best to make a breakthrough in summoning tactics when starting Qi-Qi machine, and the practice effect of other skills and tactics should also be based on summoning tactics first. Once again, the spirit of calling for words is the most concentrated. Because of the simple action of calling words, the coordination of breathing and movements, it is especially easy to concentrate on the movements of Dantian. In this careful experience, practitioners often suddenly feel that the abdomen is dynamic, thus breaking through the bottleneck of starting qi. In an exercise, the author suddenly realized that when spitting the word "Hu", he exhaled directly from Dantian and realized a complete airflow state from Dantian to Cuoyuan. Therefore, the author thinks that the word bidding tactics is most conducive to breaking through and starting the air brake. All in all, the above contents are just some real experiences of the author practicing health qigong for many years. The reason why I don't say it is just to provide some benefits for the majority of health qigong practitioners to break through the bottleneck of starting gas. If you want to make a breakthrough in starting qi, you can stay in Dantian in your daily life besides practicing more. If you can stay in Dantian all the time, activating qi is an extremely effective exercise method. As long as you stick to your heart in Dantian, you will naturally break through the bottleneck of starting the gas machine.
