"Stand like a pine, sit like a bell, walk like the wind, lie like a bow", these four postures are also praised by the ancients in the inheritance of orthodox culture in China, and they seem to be very good at keeping in good health and are very cultivated in daily life; But in fact, it embodies a solemn and well-trained image of dignity.
Specific introduction:
Standing as loose as a pine refers to the requirement of standing piles, especially in Taoist practice, which is easy for disciples to understand. Standing like a pine, the site has a foundation, straight and unshakable.
Sitting like a bell refers to the state of meditation. Like a clock, it seems that the middle of the body is empty, and sitting like a clock is still stable. How do we do this? The body must be upright, and it seems that you can't feel it sitting on your spine. The body seems empty, but the whole body is still in a loose and unremitting state.
Walking like the wind is a manifestation of the yogi's mastery of heaven. He walked lightly and gave birth to the wind. At the same time, practitioners should go straight on the right path, keep their eyes open and not be disturbed by five colors and five tones.
Lying like a bow, we find that lying on your side like a bow when sleeping is not only easy for your body to relax, but also easy for your veins to keep connected, while lying on your back is impossible for some meridians. Confucius also said not to lie down. He described lying on his back as a corpse, lying like a corpse, which of course sounded bad. And who Sun Simiao also said from the perspective of health preservation, "kneeling by your side is beneficial to people's strength, better than suppressing [y m: n] [y m: n]. According to Confucius, he doesn't lie down and die, so he sleeps tirelessly and is comfortable. "
