Relaxation is an important part of Tai Ji Chuan's internal skill or internal skill cultivation, and it is also the basic requirement of practicing internal skill Tai Ji Chuan. So, how to practice Tai Chi to relax? Please have a look at the relevant introduction materials I have compiled.
First, what is it? Tai chi relaxation? Practice? Tai chi relaxation? Meaning?
Second, in practice? Tai chi relaxation? What misunderstandings or misunderstandings should we pay attention to?
Third, how to practice? Tai chi relaxation?
First,? Tai chi relaxation? The connotation and cultivation of? Tai chi relaxation? Meaning?
( 1),? Tai chi relaxation? Meaning of
Tai Ji Chuan, as an internal strength Tai Ji Chuan different from Waiquan, is called the national treasure, not only because it is associated with the civilization and culture of China for thousands of years. It also lies in its unique training methods and its extraordinary energy or skills, that is? Four pounds? The magic of the universe That's why people give it. National quintessence, treasure and wonderful flower.
Tai Ji Chuan's practice style or direction is quite different from other kinds of boxing. This is not to practice strength from the beginning, nor to enhance muscle toughness and strength through rigid exercise. On the contrary, it requires practitioners to work hard at all. Intention is not hard? In the process of walking, we are looking for greatness, weakness, nothingness, divinity and unpredictable changes.
In a sense, this is? Tai chi relaxation? .
Yang Chengfu said? Loose, loose, loose, throw yourself into it. If you don't let go, you will be beaten. ?
Hou Yaozong said: Tai Chi Chuan? It is very strong because it is soft! ?
Yang Chengfu said? A loose word is the most difficult. If it can be loosened, leave the rest alone! ? Say it again: Loose, all muscles and bones should be relaxed, and there should be no tension. The so-called soft waist has no bones, only the tendons can be loosened, and the rest are not loosened! ?
So, Tai Chi Chuan? Matsumiya? Should include the following points:
1, it is necessary to incorporate God's will in mind to rest in peace; There is a rally before Qianglu. Hui Ling can only grow up if he never forgets to loosen his fist.
2. Physically, under the guidance of ideology, gradually achieve maximum flexibility. Instill a relaxed state of mind day after day, you can really relax for a long time.
3. In the aspect of relaxation, the requirements are not only spirit, body, joints, tendons, etc. It should be loose and thorough, but it should be too loose to bear external forces, that is? You can't add a feather, and mosquitoes can't fall? ; Loose enough without any interference. Boxing is like sleepwalking.
(2) practice? Matsumiya? the meaning of
Tai Ji Chuan should relax and be whole. For example, the movement is incomplete, the whole body is not loose, or the bare shoulders are loose in waist, buttocks, tendons and back, or the elbows, wrists and knuckles do not know how to loosen. This is not authentic teaching.
It can be seen that pine is of great significance for practicing Tai Ji Chuan well.
First of all, softness is the treasure and soul of Taiji Chuan. Only by knowing what softness is can we make progress in practicing boxing and pushing hands. Not soft and impure, internal strength is not born. If it is not soft, it is better not to practice internal skills. Extremely soft, then extremely hard.
Secondly, relaxation is the basic requirement for practicing Tai Ji Chuan. When you raise your hand, you will fall into the side door with a little force. ? Visible,? One part is loose, one part is work, and the real work is nothing. ?
Third, relaxation is the basis of practicing internal qi. You can't completely relax, and the internal qi in your body will never form. It's really not easy to relax completely. You have to work hard to relax completely. If you want to relax for a long time, relax your body, give priority to your mind, adjust your limbs naturally, breathe naturally, and integrate your internal and external abilities, you can get started.
In a word, the practice of Taiji Chuan is nothing more than a loose word. If he is not loose at all, he can't be old.
Second, in practice? Tai chi relaxation? Several misunderstandings or misunderstandings that should be paid attention to in
Judging from the classical boxing score, it should not bring deviation or fallacy to boxing practice. It is not easy to find out the reason, but it is caused by many reasons, which can be summarized as follows:
First, because of the rights in the boxing manual? Tai chi relaxation? There is no special discussion, although there is? Committed to softness? ,? A little force will slam the door? 、? Observing the shape of caves can conquer the public, so what can be done quickly? But in the end, there is no clear requirement of being big, soft and loose. Especially? Master? Children, are you explaining? Ancient boxing score? At that time, I added my own experience, which showed that I didn't exert myself. No extra power? , still hard; Still mention it? Moderate tightness? Say, anything else? Is it tight? ; Or advocate? Fast and slow? , or is there? Quick? , and so on, have to say that boxing is misleading.
Second, it is also an important reason not to accept the guidance of famous teachers. After the settlement, due to the government's emphasis on Tai Ji Chuan's publicity and promotion, Tai Ji Chuan fever appeared, especially the inscription? Hello, Tai Chi Chuan! ? Since then, it has promoted the development of Tai Ji Chuan in the whole country and even the whole world. Therefore, in contrast, there are very few experts who can really spread Tai Ji Chuan, especially in the morning exercises in towns all over the country, and there is a lack of guidance from famous teachers. So, inevitably? Amateur? Teaching? Amateur? Phenomenon, formed the Tai Ji Chuan exercise in the morning.
Thirdly, in the promotion of Tai Ji Chuan, due to the emphasis on the aesthetic, unified and standardized requirements (mainly the newly adapted boxing routines), the essential requirements of Tai Ji Chuan were ignored, whether in the theoretical explanation of the choreographer or in the rules and regulations of training and judging characters? Loose, soft, soft and tough. Highlight high kicks, loud applause and deep voices? Wait for external action. People who teach and learn boxing are misled into thinking that this is Tai Ji Chuan.
Fourthly, the Taiji Pushing Competition, which truly reflects Tai Ji Chuan's internal strength, is basically in a misunderstanding. Pushing and Sanshou competitions are based on strength and physical strength from the beginning. By the door? Left? Of course, it is impossible to provide an example and model for mass activities in Tai Ji Chuan. On the contrary, it is misleading.
Fifth, because there are few famous artists, the masters themselves have worked hard and even made it public? Big soft? Are there any challenges in martial arts publications such as Wudang and Wu Soul? Songrou? With what? Tired? Confused, can't find the truth? Tai chi relaxation? The shadow. Especially those who have learned foreign boxing? A boxer? In my mind? Not satisfied? Tai Chi Chuan? Soft? Kung fu. Transforming Tai Ji Chuan with the Concept of Waijiaquan.
Of course, not only these, but also other reasons, such as being strong. Warlike? Caused it? Fighting heart? Wait, it also led to going? Stiff? One of the reasons.
Third, how to practice? Tai chi relaxation?
What should I follow when Tai Chi Chuan walks? Thought first, then body? The principle of, namely? You come to be a flesh-and-blood priest? Practice? Tai chi relaxation? In the same way, relax first and relax a hundred times. That is, the overall relaxation is to achieve maximum relaxation through the role of ideology. The same is true for practicing boxing and pushing hands. Try to relax your mind. As your mind relaxes, so can God and your body.
Specifically includes the following points:
1, Song Xin? Relax.
Relax? Spiritual relaxation is the key to relaxation, and spirit is the soul of relaxation. If you are nervous, you will be nervous all over. When practicing boxing, on the basis of looseness, steadiness, slowness and uniformity, and according to the requirements of internal skill Tai Ji Chuan, gradually learn to use internal qi to achieve looseness and fluency. Let nature take its course and relax the spirit, joints and muscles.
When you push your hand, keep your spirit relaxed. When the opponent attacks, the skills should not move, especially the contact point should be loose and soft. If the opponent comes too hard, we will circle the internal gas to the left or right, and the opponent will fall into the abyss. When the other person touches any part of my body, when I think of that part, it means double meanings. When the other party came to force me, I didn't resist, the contact part didn't move, my mind retreated a little, and the other party failed. If you want to release each other, you can withdraw later. I can follow it gently with my heart, that is, if you send it, the other party will turn against you. Boxing definitely cloud:? What is the meaning of hard work? It's like showing respect to guests and friends and gently supporting each other with your hands. It doesn't mean anything. ? In short, practice internal strength Taiji Chuan, don't blindly pursue kung fu mentally, and keep mentally relaxed from beginning to end. Is that so? Let nature take its course and seek nature. ?
2. Loose joints
Stretch the joints of the whole body with your mind, and slowly stretch them out with your mind. For the upper limbs, the fingers are relaxed and stretched one by one, then the wrist, elbow joint and shoulder joint are relaxed, and finally the two Jianjing points are relaxed. At this point, all the fingers starting from the shoulder joint are relaxed. Lower limbs should be relaxed from toes. First, the toes of both feet are relaxed and unfolded, and then the knees are relaxed and unfolded. When relaxing the knee joint, you should pay attention to make the knee joint bend slightly, not yield, or bend excessively, and then relax the hip joint. Finally, the top of the head is lifted and the cervical spine is relaxed. At this time, when the mind is relaxed, it will encounter the yin point (between the crotch and the urine). When the yin point is relaxed, the whole body will relax. The stretching of bones makes the whole body have a sense of expansion, which makes the potential functions in the body fully play. This energy belongs to the energy inside the body. It has no sense of movement and does not reflect movements. This kind of potential energy can only be formed by your own feelings, and outsiders can't see it. For people who have a certain Tai Ji Chuan literacy, because all joints of the whole body are spread out, they are very relaxed. When you have motivation, you should satisfy it? The roots are loose, smooth and slightly transparent. ? Requirements.
The bone looseness mentioned above is still loose in the general sense. Judging from the application function of Tai Ji Chuan, it requires the overall relaxation of nine joints. Upper limbs include shoulders, elbows and wrists; Lower limbs include legs, knees and feet; In the chest, waist, crotch. In this regard, in? Tai Ji Chuan's Requirements for Personal Status? This chapter has been discussed. What is this chapter? Matsumiya? Also want to explain. We believe that Tai Chi's internal qi or internal strength runs in the foot, in the foot, in the waist, in the chest, in the wrist and in the fingers. It can be seen that only by relaxing and cleaning the nine joints and relaxing symmetry can a whole be formed. So some boxers regard the relaxation of elbows and wrists as the key to luck. Waist-oriented; Chest is the key to transportation, and hip is the link between the preceding and the following. Hip not down, waist not loose, shoulders not loose. The crotch is also a key.
3. flabby muscles
Don't exert yourself on the muscles of the whole body, and your spirit is not supported. But it should be noted that relaxation is not weakness or fatigue, but keeping muscles soft forever. As a result of long-term conscious relaxation of muscles, muscles can expand instead, and muscles will expand and relax joints, so the turbid gas and sick gas in the body can be continuously discharged from the body, and the vitality in the body will occupy a little. So practicing Tai Ji Chuan is to relax and stretch constantly every day. Especially when practicing Tai Ji Chuan, we should pay attention to the whole process of practicing Tai Ji Chuan, and keep calm from beginning to end, because we should practice the first kung fu? Waist skills? Every movement of the body needs the waist to dominate. Waist skills? Song decision requirements:? Taiji waist skill is indispensable. What's the point of lack? You can't learn all your life, but you can't forget your skills. ? Muscle tension doesn't practice internal strength, Tai Ji Chuan.
4, internal organs loose
The five internal organs include heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney. General exercise can only exercise the heart and lungs. All kinds of exercise and running can only increase vital capacity and enhance the tolerance of the heart. The kidneys are basically inactive. The kidney is the root of life of the body. How stable is it? The foundation of nature? Its main functions are: first, to promote the growth and development of the human body, and the driving force behind this function is called? Life gate? , also called what? Kidney yang? Or? Yuan zui? This dynamic foundation is called. How are you? , so there is? Kidney storing sperm? Statement; Second, it plays a major role in the metabolic balance of water and liquid in the body. Kidney storing essence is the material basis of human life activities. Kidney storing essence has two meanings: ① it is acquired essence, which refers to the essence produced by the internal organs, including subtle substances (such as essence, blood and body fluid) that can nourish the organs, limbs and five senses. This essence comes from the essence of diet, in order to safeguard human life, nourish various tissues and organs of human body and promote their growth and development. The foundation of nature? . (2) refers to the basic substance of human reproduction (related to male sperm chamber and female cell organ). The kidney is also responsible for the production, storage and excretion of this part of sperm.
Between the waist and kidneys? Life gate? Mingmen is the motive force of kidney physiological function, that is, the birthplace of human thermal energy, also known as? Vitality? Or? Is it really hot? . It is firmly believed that Tibetan essence, whether congenital essence or acquired essence, needs a certain temperature to play its role in nourishing the whole body tissues and organs and deriving offspring. The temperature and strength in these two kinds of essence are the expression of the fire of life gate. If the fire of Ming-men drops, men may be impotent or the semen is cold and childless, and women may suffer from uterine deficiency (uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes), leukorrhagia or infertility. On the other hand, the digestive function of the spleen and stomach will also be low, leading to diarrhea.
In terms of water metabolism, the gasification function of Sanjiao also depends on the role of Mingmen fire. If the life gate fails, it will cause diseases such as edema or urinary incontinence.
Zang-fu organs are the birthplace of internal qi, so relax zang-fu organs with your mind and let internal qi spread slowly and spread to the whole body. Only by relaxing the zang-fu organs can the internal qi in the body surge. The more internal qi in the body, the more it spreads to the limbs and forms a powerful gas field outside the body. Of the five internal organs, only the kidney shows morphological expression when relaxing, because it is above the psoas muscle. What do we practice? Waist skills? That is, the two muscles above the kidney are well trained and can draw a circle up and down, left and right. Can command hands and feet, and make all kinds of movements of pushing hands.
The six internal organs include gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, bladder and triple energizer. The first five have no morphological expression when relaxing, and only the triple energizer is divided into three parts: upper, middle and lower.
The middle jiao corresponds to the upper abdomen, including the spleen and stomach. The upper jiao is located in the upper part of the chest (including the heart and lungs). The lower jiao is located below the midabdomen (including liver and kidney). ? Jiao? It means heat, and the expression of this heat energy is called? Gas? Therefore, the overall function of Sanjiao is to preside over Qi and dredge waterways, but the functions of the upper, middle and lower departments have their own specialties. What is the main function of the upper corner? Zongqi? It is transported to the whole body to supply the functional activities of various tissues and organs in the body. The main function of medium coke is to digest and transport food and drink, evaporate * *, and transfer nutrients through pulmonary veins to turn them into gas. The main function of lower coke is to separate the residue digested in human body. Food residues are excreted through the large intestine, and metabolic residual water is excreted through the bladder.
To sum up, the general physiological function of triple energizer is the sum of the functions of several viscera in the human body in food digestion, absorption, nutrition and excretion. This general function is the collection of primordial qi (life gate), middle qi (spleen and stomach qi) and clan qi, which complement each other.
The relaxation of the six internal organs makes the five internal organs seem to be suspended in the body, resulting in a kind of virtual spirit.
As can be seen from the above analysis, Tai Ji Chuan's demand for relaxation is not weak, nor is it slack, nor is it tired. For muscles and nerves, it is actually required to stay relaxed. For joints, it is required to be loose, which is what we often say? Correct drawing length? Practicing qi, with the gas layer as the medium, can naturally relax around like a ball. Looseness is the foundation of internal strength Tai Ji Chuan, which cannot be completely relaxed, and internal strength can never be formed in the body. It's really not easy to relax completely. You must work hard to relax. Understand the importance of relaxation and gradual practice? Matsumiya? . In practice, when you are in contact with the other party, you will immediately become stiff, that is, when you unconsciously enter the strong category, you lose. At this point, don't say others are strong, but find fault with yourself. If you don't push yourself, how do you know that the other side is strong? Or some people retreat when the other side attacks. This is not loosening, not melting, but running, which is a weak hand and leads to a crushing defeat. This goes against Tai Ji Chuan's aim of relaxation and Tai Ji Chuan's requirement of circling. When you are full of energy, you can't show your inner strength, which means that you are not loose, and there is room for internal management, but also because you violate the energy? Hair roots are loose, medium smooth and slightly transparent. ? Principle. The intermediate skill requirement of Taijiquan internal skill is to pay attention to relaxation and communication. Jinyuan is handy, and the skills are loose and strong. ? Loose, in addition to hard work, we must realize, realize in practice, and practice in understanding. It is foolish to practice without understanding, and you will not achieve long-term success. Of course, you can't practice without understanding. That's a verbal promise.
In short, when practicing boxing, you must meditate to see if your whole body is relaxed, calm and comfortable. Every time you move, you should think about how to pass on your ideas to each other, how to get into your heart, and how to make progress over time. To this end, we must follow the path of light, nothingness, stability and softness, and we must not make the disease of resistance, and we must not have the idea of combining rigidity with softness in our hearts. Imagine that seniors try to relax wholeheartedly, but they can't relax and clean their bodies. If you always have one in boxing practice? Fast and slow? 、? Moderate tightness? 、? Soft and hard? I thought, of course, it can't be loose and clean, and you will never practice great kung fu, let alone Tai Chi.
