I find that more and more friends around me are participating in various sports, especially in recent years. I have spent most of my time in the yoga circle, seeing with my own eyes and hearing with my own ears. They attach importance to health and cherish life. But many of us, including me, have participated in various physical exercises and sports since childhood, which is regarded as experienced people. So, can you recall what kind of effects these exercises have had on our bodies? Anything, we often mention motivation, motivation is different, the same thing will lead to different directions for everyone.
When I was in primary school, I was good at sprinting, so the PE teacher specially asked me to join the school sports team for key training. So, I called my mother to the office to talk, and my mother refused to live or die, on the grounds that it would delay her study. So, in junior high school, I sat on the bench and concentrated on my study. When I left as a soldier, my neighbor aunt solemnly said to my mother: Your daughter can go to the army. She has always been a member of the school sports team. She has good physical fitness and is not afraid of the hard training of the troops.
If all the military training of the army, including folding quilts into tofu blocks, suddenly gathering in an emergency and marching five kilometers in an emergency, is regarded as exercise and fitness, then I am really an all-round player in the sports circle. Although not as good as me, it's still full. When I entered the military school, I was still the same, marching, walking and running. After taking part in the work, although the old three samples gradually decreased, they completely became errands.
From primary school to military academy and then to the army, there is no moment to exercise for health, not for further study, but for quality and a greater military mission.
During the rainstorm, the smog in Beijing will be heavier. I only remember walking home from the playground with stars and golden leaves on my head for two consecutive autumn nights. The urgency and helplessness of treating allergic rhinitis made me run for two whole autumn days. At the same time, my figure began to appear in the gym.
With the growth of age, when your body really starts to have problems, at this time, exercise and fitness will return to health, with health as the purpose. The purpose of this time is generally the same as the previous purpose, both of which are too utilitarian. Our physical exercise has always been a competitive sport, which is usually fast and arduous. Repeated actions often consume physical strength and make the body nervous and tired. Of course, the so-called competition needs to be compared with others, which also makes the original purpose become to surpass others and become a better self in the eyes of others. Such utilitarianism is accompanied by almost all the sports and fitness programs we participate in. In addition, once this kind of exercise can't achieve the desired effect in a short time, it is easy for us to give up, what's more, this kind of exercise makes our bodies easily nervous and tired.
In my first yoga class, the teacher repeatedly stressed: don't compare with others, accept and succumb to your current physical condition. In yoga, we try not to show others anything in every movement, but to show ourselves.
I've heard many people's first impressions of yoga: it's too quiet and too slow. Yes, it looks quiet, soft and slow, but it just looks, actually? You just believe what you see. Before you try, you have sentenced someone to death. People really want to be more resentful than Dou E! Not to mention that you have never experienced any mobile yoga, eight yoga and Iyengar yoga. As far as I'm concerned, if you want to make a proper posture, you're already getting hot all over. If you don't believe me, try the magic chair style, then stand on tiptoe, and you can sour your thighs in minutes, no matter how thick or strong they are.
Physical exercise can improve the energy level by promoting the operation of the nervous system, but the result is that the energy reserves of cells are exhausted, the endocrine glands are exhausted and the toxins in cells are increased. Young bodies always have too much capital to overdraw and squander. Although we have exercised for so many years, we are still alive and well. On the contrary, older people began to feel afraid to run too much, with knee pain, poor waist, unable to keep up with physical strength and unable to do too strenuous exercise. After trying yoga, they feel safe, comfortable and relaxed.
Yoga poses are positive, while other endurance exercises are exciting. We always need external stimuli to act, and we have long forgotten or are not familiar with what our inner voice is like. We are busy, confused, anxious and confused. How can we stop and listen to the voices inside our bodies, whether they are tired, nervous, closed or stagnant? ...
Yoga makes us gradually aware of the inside, rather than blindly pursuing the outside. In pranayama meditation, when standing and bending forward, you should be aware of the speed and uniformity of breathing and whether your back is arched or sunken. Be yourself completely, no matter what others are doing. For the first time, I realized that when comparing with others, I was comparing with myself. I realized that "my biggest enemy is myself".
Yoga practice takes the brain as the object and the body as the main body. Energy spreads from the brain to other parts of the body, so the brain and the body work together and the energy is evenly distributed between them. At the beginning of learning yoga, the brain is often very active, but at this time the body is not easy to stabilize. So my teacher often tells me that when the energy in my brain is transmitted downwards, my brain will be calm and my posture will naturally be stable.
Static energy produces wisdom, which is static and far-reaching. Static is contained in motion, and motion originates from static. Yoga creates energy and no longer consumes energy.
