Zhang Sanfeng, a Taoist priest in Ming Dynasty, lived in seclusion in Wudang Mountain. It is said that he lived for more than 200 years because he invented the Tai Ji Chuan Movement. Because of his good health, he doesn't wear cotton-padded clothes all the year round, so he is called "Zhang" Zhang Sanfeng's Tai Ji Chuan movement has continued to this day, which shows that it is really fierce.
Zhang Sanfeng's regimen is called "internal strength". The so-called "internal strength" means "nourishing the nature with qi, nourishing the heart with qi, and nourishing the body with qi". Zhang Sanfeng's longevity secret has several aspects!
First, concentrate on abstinence, which means lewd, cautious and calm, which is convenient for invigorating qi, dredging meridians, activating collaterals and improving health.
The second meditation is that you should close your eyes and be calm, so that you can feel cool and calm inside, as calm as water.
Third, pure heart, normal heart, sincerity and innocence, we must get rid of insincerity and sincerity in learning Tao, and then we can make progress.
Fourth, nourish the heart and gather qi, that is, don't think about it. If you nourish your heart well, your qi will be strong.
If you want to live a long life, you can really learn from Zhang Sanfeng's method of self-cultivation, be kind-hearted, be diligent in sports, do more good deeds and practice Tai Ji Chuan. Don't take it seriously if you want to live for more than 200 years and live forever.
Why do so many people practice Tai Ji Chuan in Zhang Sanfeng now? Because practicing Tai Ji Chuan has other benefits besides health and longevity, such as relieving stress, reducing anxiety and depression, and reducing the risk of chronic diseases. Regular practice of Tai Ji Chuan can also make you have a good sleep quality and increase your immunity.
