Why Tai Ji Chuan is the best way to keep fit?
Chinese medicine and Tai Ji Chuan are the quintessence of our country, and Tai Ji Chuan was created under the guidance of Huang Tingjing's theory of Chinese medicine and Taoist thought. Tai Ji Chuan is a health preserving method based on self-physical and physical exercise, which emphasizes the unity of form and spirit, the combination of movement and static, emotional dependence, internal and external training, and equal attention to body and mind. Since its establishment, Tai Ji Chuan has been widely welcomed by the public because of its gentle, quiet and coherent movements, combining rigidity with softness, easy to master, being used by the people and obvious effects. It is also considered by the majority of Chinese medicine practitioners that Tai Ji Chuan is one of the best exercise and fitness methods. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that qi is the source and motive force of various functional activities of the human body, and it is the cardinal of communication and coordination among all parts of the human body. Therefore, we should put the conditioning of qi in an important position of exercise and emphasize the conditioning of qi to support the whole body. Tai Ji Chuan cooperates with breathing to sink qi into the abdomen, thus stimulating internal qi to run the whole body. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the lung governs qi breathing and the kidney governs qi, which is the root of the source. Lung and kidney cooperate, breathing is thin, even, long and slow. This kind of abdominal breathing can not only enhance and improve the ventilation function of the lungs, but also benefit the kidney and protect the vitality. When the abdomen is full of qi, the internal qi will flow throughout the body, the viscera and flesh will be nourished, and the internal and external qi will be adjusted. At the same time, the body is the material basis for the existence of Qi Shen, so it is important to maintain the body to make it sound and harmonious with Qi Shen, so the cultivation of the body is also very important. Move the body to promote qi and blood. Proactive and helping the poor are the basic characteristics of Tai Ji Chuan. Qi passes through the four meridians of Ren, Du, Dai and Chong, ascending on the shoulders, arms, elbows and wrists, descending on the hips, knees and ankles, so that the qi flows around the whole body and returns to Dantian, so that all muscles, bones, joints and limbs move under the impetus of qi, so that their functions can be exercised, the bones and muscles can be moved, the meridians can be dredged, and qi can promote blood circulation.
