Chen taijichuan fitness
Taoist priest in ancient China? Sit still? 、? A tour guide? This technology is a method of preserving health and treating diseases. "Su Wen. On different methods and appropriate methods, it says: its people eat miscellaneous food without fatigue, so its diseases are mostly flaccidity, cold and heat, so its treatment should be guided. . "Su Wen. On ancient naivety says again:? It's okay, the true qi follows, the spirit stays inside, and the disease is always safe. ? Does this fully explain? Exercise? And then what? Quiet? Health preservation from different angles can achieve the physiological effects of strengthening the body and treating diseases.
From ancient times to the present, there are many kinds of techniques for health preservation and treatment, each with its own characteristics. While Chen and Tai Ji Chuan summed up the essence of predecessors' various health preserving methods, combined with the theory of Yin and Yang, and combined the merits with quietness and the quietness with practice. This ingenious combination of motion and static has produced the mutual coordination of internal qi, and promoted the form, thinking and action, fast and slow, opening and releasing, separation and combination. So as to feel at ease in thought, exercise from body and organs, be full of energy, be full of clan spirit, be sure of the essence and be strong.
(A) Tai Ji Chuan's fitness role
1. Improve the inhibition process of nervous system and eliminate the feedback effect of focus. The function of the nervous system is to regulate the functional activities of all organs in the whole body and maintain the integrity and unity of the human body to meet the needs of changes in the external environment. Tai Ji Chuan's quietness? Defend Tian Dan? For the art of static work. This kind of static work can increase the control ability of self-thought, thus preventing the transmission of the feedback signal mechanism of the etiology focus, correcting and repairing the vicious circle of focus feedback, inhibiting the development of the disease and improving the health level. Don't worry, stick to the abdomen, which is the basis of inspiring internal qi and the condition of perseverance. Perseverance is the guarantee of practicing boxing. With perseverance, we can coordinate from internal qi to external appearance. Qi sinks in the abdomen, permeates the tail and circulates all over the body, so that the viscera are full, the whole body is nourished and full of energy, which is conducive to the repair of pathological changes and mental trauma, the recovery of the sick body and the maintenance of the spirit. Because it can improve the function of brain nerve cells and coordinate the process of excitation and inhibition, it has a good preventive and therapeutic effect on mental trauma and nervous system diseases, such as neurasthenia.
2. Enhance heart function, improve microcirculation system, expand vital capacity and improve gas exchange capacity. Blood is responsible for nourishing all tissues and organs of the whole body, but the heart is the driving force of blood operation, and capillaries are the place for microcirculation substance exchange. A long-term boxer's heart rate is about 60 beats per minute. This heart rate caused by long-term exercise slows down the diastolic period of the heart, so that the myocardium can get full rest, the myocardial contractility is strengthened, the output is increased, and the working ability of the heart is improved.
Long-term exercise can circulate internal qi, relax the whole body, strengthen microcirculation function, facilitate the exchange of substances inside and outside capillaries, promote the utilization rate of oxygen in tissues, reduce the accumulation of creatine, relieve fatigue, and be beneficial to the recovery of diseases, especially for chronic coronary heart disease, hyperlipidemia and arteriosclerosis.
The lung is a place for gas exchange, and it is an important condition that gas exchange is absorbed into the kidney when breathing. When the kidney inhales, it sinks in the abdomen, while when the kidney does not inhale, it floats on the chest and breathes. Tai Ji Chuan's breathing style requires deep, long, even and soft, which can increase the activity of diaphragm and abdominal muscles, adjust intercostal breathing function, increase the tension of lung and thorax, increase vital capacity, increase the contact area between alveoli and capillary walls, and enhance the diffusion ability of oxygen and carbon dioxide. After long-term exercise, you can reduce the breathing frequency and enhance the breathing effect, especially when practicing boxing? Sweat, can't breathe? . It has certain curative effect on the prevention and treatment of chronic emphysema and is suitable for the prevention and treatment of various chronic lung diseases.
3. Strengthening muscles, improving the physical and chemical properties of bones and dredging meridians are beneficial to the circulation of qi and blood and health in the camp. The way to move Tai Chi is not to move. From the smoothness of internal qi to the change of appearance, from internal organs to the bones of limbs, all lie in? Moving? Medium. Spiral motion of forward and backward winding and its up-and-down motion. Internal and external combination, fast and slow combination, and linkage. From the zang-fu organs to the body tissues, joint ligaments and tendon sheath muscles, they have all been active and exercised. Over time, the muscles are plump and developed, and the bones are strong and powerful, which improves the physical and chemical properties of the bones and improves their ability to resist bending, compression, bending and dislocation. It has a good preventive effect on joint diseases of the elderly (stiff joints, inconvenient walking and sitting posture, sore feet and knees, weakness in flexion and extension, and hyperosteogeny).
Meridian is the channel of qi and blood circulation, and the health of human body is closely related to the smoothness of meridian and qi. People who practice Tai Ji Chuan will, to a certain extent, feel feverish in the lower abdomen, bloated limbs and numbness. What does China acupuncture think this phenomenon is? Angry? Performance, that is, the performance of mobilizing qi in the body, opening meridians and running qi.
Tai Ji Chuan movement? Dominate the waist? ,? Virtual collar strength? ,? Experience the abdomen? The waist is the viscera of the kidney and is surrounded by veins. Back movement drives body shape, finger walking, four-pointed walking, and back to the abdomen. Dantian is the part of the lower abdomen, and the pulse of Ren Du is one source and three points, leaving the perineum and refilling the meridians. Long-term exercise can make the kidney vigorous, the pulse full, the yin and yang harmonious, and the mind clear.
? Is Chiang Kai-shek in the end? It is the key to Taiji, the basis for stabilizing one's center of gravity and enhancing one's motivation. Tai Chi Chuan? Virtual collar strength? With what? Is Chiang Kai-shek in the end? Up and down? Baihui point? With what? Changqiang point? Mutual perfusion is beneficial to the smooth flow of meridian qi. Baihui and Changqiang points are important points of Du meridian. After qi passes through this point, it can raise the middle qi and strengthen the functions of ligaments and extensors. Therefore, it has a good therapeutic and preventive effect on proctoptosis, hemorrhoids and uterine prolapse.
Generally speaking,? Is Chiang Kai-shek in the end? 、? Virtual collar strength? Conducive to the operation of meridian qi of Ren and Du meridians. As the sea of yin veins, it is always the yin meridian (three yin meridians of hands and feet), the sea of yang veins is the governor, and the yin and yang meridians are the governor (three yang meridians of hands and feet). Connect the strange warps in series to make them smooth. Besides? Air deposition field sheet, spiral winding? From the inside out, from the body to the limbs, you can get special exercise, and once you exercise, you can get rid of the valley gas and circulate blood, and you can not get sick. (Hua Tuo Chuan). Of course, it will not happen overnight to make it play the role of disease prevention and fitness. On the basis of correct actions, men, women and children can get the effect of preventing diseases, keeping fit and prolonging life.
On Tai Ji Chuan's Mechanism of Treating Diseases and Keeping Healthy
First, the relationship between Taiji Zhuan and Zhouyi and Taoist theory of Yin and Yang.
The Book of Changes is a classic of natural philosophy in China's ancient study of the laws of the change and development of the universe. It is the pioneering work of China traditional culture, and it has been listed as "Zhouyi" in the long history of China. Five classics? First of all, it takes cosmology as a thinking tool and method. It takes the theory of yin-yang and five elements as its theoretical form about the unity of all things, and expresses its understanding of the world. For thousands of years, the basic ideas of Zhouyi have been integrated into the psychological quality of the Chinese nation and penetrated into various fields of ancient social science and technology, such as geography, calendar, personnel, medicine, martial arts, military affairs, architecture and other fields, which constitute the basic style of China traditional culture. Tai Ji Chuan is no exception, taking the sixty-four hexagrams of Zhouyi as Tai Ji Chuan's basic theory.
Is the so-called Taiji the Book of Changes Justice written by Confucius in the Tang Dynasty? It is said that before heaven and earth were separated, they were mixed into one, that is, the beginning and the beginning? In fact, it means that the infinite is too high. Is this Lao Tzu's? Everything in the world is born, and everything is born without it? Tao gives birth to one, one, two, two, three, three things. Everything is negative for Yang and embraces Yang, and it is the first to think that it is peace. ? In the ancient theory of Yin and Yang, everything was abstracted as the attribute of Yin and Yang, forming the two hexagrams of Yin and Yang. Each of the sixty-four hexagrams contains the attributes of Yin and Yang, which change, stagger, change and collide with each other and finally merge. Do you think this is peace? There are three more, that is? Two and three books? Eight hexagrams are born of yin and yang, three hexagrams are born of three hexagrams, and eight natural phenomena interact to form sixty-four hexagrams, which symbolize everything, that is, Laozi's? Everything is born? Laozi's theory of the creation of everything in the universe and the derivation of tricks all come from the Book of Changes.
The program, as well as the easily obtained two instruments, four images and eight diagrams, are derived, which constitute the basic model of Taoist universe ontology. It can be seen that Laozi's Taoist theory is in the same strain as Zhouyi. Tai Ji Chuan art is the art of Artest and Tai Ji Chuan, which is arranged and rehearsed according to Zhouyi and Laozi's Taoist theory, and is summarized and developed by boxers in past dynasties. The origin of Tai Ji Chuan, Wang Zongyue's On Tai Ji Chuan begins? Taiji is born without promise, the mother of yin and yang. Moving is divided, and static is closed. . After On the Biography of Taiji, Wang Zongyue's On the Biography of Taiji was regarded as a classic by various schools, such as Li Yishe's Introduction to Taiji in the seventh year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty. I don't know who started Tai Ji Chuan. It is ingenious, and Wang Zongyue's theory is exhaustive. ? Today, the books sent by various schools also list Wang Zongyue's "Taiji Biography" as the first classic of Taiji Biography. It can be seen that Wang Zongyue's contribution to the development of Tai Ji Chuan is indelible.
Second, the relationship between Tai Ji Chuan Theory and the basic theory of TCM.
As we know, Taiji, as a model of cosmic structure, vividly reflects the laws of communication between heaven and earth such as Yin and Yang, Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, and contains profound world outlook and methodological principles of China's ancient natural philosophy. In many fields of China traditional culture, Taiji diagram is often used as the figure and symbol of its principle. It is most appropriate to use Taiji diagram to represent the model of TCM theory. The interaction of Yin-Yang and Five Elements in TCM, the news of the fluctuation of Qi, the periodic law of life activities, and the models of physiology, pathology and treatment can all be expressed by Taiji schema. Chinese medicine according to Neijing? One yin and one yang is the Tao, and one yin and one yang is the disease? Taiji thinking method divides the life state of human body into two categories: pathological state and pathological state, and pathological state and pathological state are divided by nerve sensation, so Taiji model of generalized pathological theory of human body consists of pathological state, pathological state and nerve sensation. What is the so-called morbid state? Yin and Yang? Disease state, obvious painful feeling (symptom), deviating from the orderly state of people. So-called not morbid, is consistent? One yin and one yang? The state of the human body, that is, the healthy state and the relatively balanced state of the human body, has no obvious painful feelings (symptoms). Although latent diseases lurk in the human body, they do not destroy the balance of the human body and feel no pain (symptoms). This type also belongs to the non-pathological range.
Chinese medicine book "Su Wen? These two kinds of people's life states were put forward in the theory of "Four Qi Regulating Spirit". ? Saints can't cure diseases, cure diseases, cure chaos, and cure chaos. ? A person's life is often a life of mutual transformation between the sick and the uninfected. This is the idea of human functional pathology theory. The pathological state of human body is represented by body image information, which includes symptom information and constitution state. In the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, the theory of yin-yang and five elements is a tool for logical thinking and classification of these body image information.
From the analysis of the basic theory of TCM, the academic system of TCM is a Taiji model of human body with the unity of opposites of internal and external qi, while from the analysis of the complex health care and disease control of human body, TCM guides doctors' clinical practice through the Taiji model combining therapy and nourishing. So-called? Cure? It's a combination of treating diseases, the so-called? Raise? This is to take care of unhealthy conditions. Traditional Chinese medicine has a tradition of combining therapy with nourishing since ancient times, and has accumulated rich experience and skills, such as prescription for treating diseases, acupuncture, massage, guidance, suggestive psychotherapy, dietotherapy, music, singing and chanting. There are many projects to prevent diseases, such as calming the nerves, preserving health, exercising, guiding, recuperating the body and exercising in Tai Ji Chuan. Through various conditioning methods of human body, we can adapt to the change of weather, make the five elements of qi in human body adapt to the change of nature, and ensure the unity of opposites, coordination and neutralization of internal and external qi in human body.
Among all kinds of health care campaigns, the Tai Ji Chuan campaign was the first one promoted by the author. Tai Ji Chuan does have many mysteries about health care and fitness. Wang Zongyue wrote On the Biography of Taiji based on the Diagram of Taiji. Use? Tai Chi map? The philosophy of Yin and Yang explains the theory of boxing and summarizes Tai Ji Chuan's theory. Yin never leaves Yang, and Yang never leaves Yin? The dialectical law of unity of opposites is consistent with the theory of TCM health preservation. Tai Ji Chuan's boxing theory follows five levels in Taiji diagram. The first level is round, which means? Promise and Tai Chi? Refers to the beginning of Taijiquan, calm, holding yuan and keeping one, returning to dantian, entering and leaving Yin and Yang, knowing and doing; The second meaning is divided into yin and yang, each with its own characteristics, with yin in the yang and yang in the yin. Metaphor boxing has rigidity in softness and quietness in movement, which are the roots of each other; The third layer is that the five elements follow the cloth, entering the fire, retreating to the water, looking at wood on the left, gold on the right, and earth in the middle. The fourth layer means human body coordination and neutralization. For example, when moving forward, you should have back support, first left and then right, and train for a long time. Unconsciously, you will form the feeling that the internal gas is released outside and the external gas is collected inside. Through the exchange of internal and external qi, the qi of five parties and five elements is used to nourish the qi of five internal organs. For example, the east belongs to the soil to nourish the liver, the south belongs to the fire to nourish the heart, and the west belongs to the gold to nourish the lungs. Water in the north nourishes the kidney, which means keeping the middle earth and nourishing the stomach. In fact, Chinese medicine has fully absorbed the idea of harmony between man and nature. Four seasons, five internal organs, yin and yang? The core of this theory is applied to the research of human science. ? Four seasons, five internal organs, yin and yang? It is the core part of the theoretical system of Neijing. It organically connects the five images, five times, five gases and five cultures of nature with the five zang-organs, five bodies, five colors, five sounds, five flavors and five senses of the human body with the theory of Yin and Yang, forming five functional activity systems with the five zang-organs as the main body, conforming to the five times and five gases, and corresponding to the human body and nature. The fifth layer means that man and nature are integrated. Heaven and earth are great Tai Chi, and human body is small Tai Chi. There are Tai Chi and Tai Chi qi everywhere in the human body, which is nothing more than big and small, that is, what the ancients said? Harmony between man and nature? . Therefore, the ancients highly summarized all these things and ever-changing natural phenomena, abstracted them into Taiji diagrams, which were used to understand, comprehend and perceive the meaning of Taiji.
The basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine uses the law of the growth and decline of Tai Chi Yin and Yang to find that there is a corresponding internal relationship between human life activities and the periodic changes of years, months and days. Su Xiang Neijing puts forward:? Man is born with the spirit of heaven and earth, and the law of the four seasons is made? 、? The sky is yang, the earth is yin, the day is yang, the month is yin, and the size of the month is 360 days, so people should also respond? . ? People's posture is like heaven, and the news of deficiency of qi and blood is like heaven and earth. ? For example, the rise and fall of human yang in a year is related to the natural cycle of sunshine and temperature in four seasons. This great discovery further proves that Tai Ji Chuan not only practiced the growth and decline of Yin and Yang in orientation, but also practiced the overall growth and decline of Yin and Yang in time and space. Therefore, the understanding of Taiji diagram is not a simple plane static understanding, but a three-dimensional sphere that conforms to the laws of the universe, which has a deeper understanding of our practice of Tai Ji Chuan.
Thirdly, the essence of Tai Ji Chuan is to adjust the balance of yin and yang.
People who have been practicing Tai Ji Chuan for a long time have the same experience: practicing Tai Ji Chuan is helpful to the coordination and balance of human body posture, psychological function and physiological function. The main links of acrobatics are mental adjustment (consciousness exercise), pranayama (breathing exercise) and body adjustment (posture exercise). The three are interrelated, mutually restricted and complementary. Self-regulation plays a leading role in the three, and the three play an integral role under the active control of consciousness.
The training mechanism is very complicated, especially the internal qi, which has not been completely explained scientifically. The author thinks that internal qi really exists objectively, but people have different sensitivity and feelings about meridians.
Understanding is different. In fact, a person's life activities are inseparable from the natural environment and the surrounding social environment. The natural environment is always changing, so is the social environment. However, if carefully observed, some basic physiological indexes of the human body, such as body temperature, pulse and respiratory rate, are often in a fairly stable state. If these indicators exceed the normal range, it means that the human body may have turned into a pathological state, which may lead to death in severe cases. This relatively stable state is not only the realization of human life activities, but also the result of the interaction of human organ systems. For example, when the skin sweats a lot, the urine output of the kidney decreases, which is a stable state that can be automatically adjusted. Biologists call it? Steady state? In the theory of Chinese medicine, there are&; l
