Tai Ji Chuan is a martial art in China. To practice Tai Ji Chuan, you should be familiar with Tai Ji Chuan's internal strength and master Tai Ji Chuan's boxing theory. Taiji Qigong is a combination of Tai Ji Chuan and Qigong. Practicing Tai Chi Qigong can strengthen the body. With Tai Ji Chuan, learn four tricks of Tai Ji Chuan's infinite qigong.
Four tricks of Tai Ji Chuan's infinite qigong
Tai Ji Chuan belongs to the family-run boxing in traditional martial arts. Practicing Tai Ji Chuan can improve physical function and achieve the purpose of strengthening the body.
(a) the view of the heart, the heart without its heart.
(2) Look at its shape, it is shapeless.
(3) From a distance, there is nothing.
(4) things and I are one, and there is nothing without me.
These are four formulas of Tai Ji Chuan's infinite qigong.
First, the importance of practicing Tai Ji Chuan with infinite qigong.
There are many similarities between Tai Ji Chuan and Qigong, both for health preservation, and both attach importance to internal qi recuperation.
Why do you practice Tai Ji Chuan and Wuji Qigong? What is infinite qigong? What is the relationship between Wuji Qigong and Taiji? Infinite qigong is a kind of imposing manner, which is felt by the spirit and soul, rather than the breath of natural lungs. Infinite qigong is very different from natural breathing. What is the relationship between infinite qigong and Tai Chi? We should start with the first two sentences of Wang Zongyue's On Tai Ji Chuan.
The first sentence: Tai Chi, born without promise, is also the mother of Yin and Yang.
The second sentence: motion is divided, and static is combined.
Taiji is born without promise, and the mother of yin and yang is also. Tai Ji Chuan practitioners (a circle in Taiji diagram is divided into two active halves, one facing the sun and the other facing the sun), also called Yin-Yang diagram, and the application of Yin and Yang in boxing is virtual reality. Yang is virtual, Yin is real, because Tai Chi is the qi of Yin and Yang, and with the distinction between Yin and Yang, it is Tai Chi. Infinity is an infinite balloon (that is, infinite qigong) that is static regardless of yin and yang.
Taiji originates from the infinite qi, so the infinite is the mother of yin and yang. Without practicing Wuji Qigong, there will be no Wuji and Taiji, which shows the importance of practicing Wuji Qigong. "Because practice Tai Ji Chuan is not in the style, but in the imposing manner, not in the outside. Study on weekdays, try to figure out the way to live a loose and round life, and be arrogant. The whole body is like a balloon, the momentum is expensive, and the body is hanging. " What I'm talking about here is mostly anger. Therefore, practicing Tai Ji Chuan should also practice infinite qigong.
"moving is divided, and static is combined."
The meaning of this sentence is that if you move, you will be divided, and if you are still, you will be together. To maintain an infinite state, you can divide yin and yang when you move. This is how the infinite divides Tai Chi (Yin and Yang). We have practiced infinite qigong very well, and we should distinguish yin and yang from the five elements when walking. When you are still, you should be close, keep infinite, have spirit, and have a slight sense of movement (a tendency to move). Tai Ji Chuan is a family-run boxing method, which does not use force, but has a kind of goodwill and five elements (advance, retreat, horizontal, hope and determination). Yin inside, Yang outside, Yin below, Yang above, Yin after, Yang before, Yin in spirit, Yang in potential, Yin in softness and Yang in rigidity, depending on the actual situation.
Shall we practice Tai Ji Chuan or boxing? Boxing is a scientific sports technique. Therefore, it is not enough to practice Tai Ji Chuan's special skills. Practicing Tai Ji Chuan is a walk in the air. Walking boxing frame is not a special boxing frame, but it is a kind of good intention to cooperate with qigong without exertion. Coupled with the boxing frame transformed from Yin-Yang and Five Elements, this is the art of practicing Tai Ji Chuan. As you get older, your skills and strength will also decline. When you practice infinite qigong, it will be transformed into the qi of yin and yang. With the action of Tai Chi, you will gradually realize knowledge from maturity and ascend to heaven from knowledge.
Therefore, practicing Wuji Qigong is of great help to those who practice Tai Ji Chuan, and it is also an important cooperation. After practicing the art of Tai Chi, pushing hands with others shows that it is not a strong victory, and many things can be introduced.
The above is the importance of practicing infinite qigong and some Tai Chi truths. The following is the practice of infinite qigong and internal strength. There are many ways to practice, and there is only one reason. It is important to master the correct practice methods. We know Tai Chi, but we don't know how to practice it, just like we can't go up a tall building without stairs. Practice is the ladder of Tai Chi. We know the truth of Tai Chi, master the correct methods, and practice persistently every day, and we can reach the Tai Chi Art Museum.
Second, the five secrets of Tai Chi internal strength: static, light, slow, even and constant.
When we practice infinite qigong and Tai Chi internal strength, we must first cooperate with the five-character strategy of Tai Chi. It is difficult to practice qigong and internal skills without the five-character formula, because the five-character formula of Tai Chi internal skills is the key. So before practicing Tai Chi's internal skills, let's talk about the five-character formula of Tai Chi: static, light, slow, even and constant. The meaning and practice of these five words: the first word is "static", and the formula of static word is very important. People who practice internal skills know to be quiet, but it is difficult to be quiet. The reason is that people's minds are always thinking about other things and can't calm down.
If you want to calm people's minds, you must find a way to get out of them and let them not think. This is the key. Only when they have a way out can they calm down. Therefore, when we practice the static character tactic, we should practice it together with the words "light, slow and even" so that people's thoughts can focus on light, slow and even, and only with the light, slow and even export can we practice the static character tactic well.
Light, slow and even. When practicing martial arts, we should first concentrate on speaking out of turn tactics. Relax the whole body without exertion, and gently relax every part with your mind; The second step is to focus on the word "slow" and use ideas (thoughts) to command slow movement; The third step is to focus on the word "Lian". In the process of exercise, there should be no light or heavy, no fast or slow, and every part of the body should be evenly distributed from head to toe, which makes people feel comfortable and there is no place stiff. "Constant" means practicing, persisting and persevering every day.
In addition to the five-character formula, three sounds will be more effective when practicing (body adjustment, breath adjustment and heart adjustment). When practicing standing, you should first adjust your body and adjust your body. Your feet should be shoulder width. Don't lean back and forth, lean left and right, and stand firm gently. In pranayama, people's breathing should be light, slow, thin and even, and there is no feeling of letting nature take its course when breathing. Adjusting one's state of mind means keeping one's state of mind calm. If a person can achieve the formula of the above five words and adjust his body and breath, he can achieve peace of mind, relaxation, peace of mind and martial arts.
The following training methods should be combined with five-character formula and practiced with three sounds.
The first sentence looks at the heart, but the heart has no heart.
The first sentence is the first level of infinite qigong. We can practice sitting, standing and lying on the first floor.
First of all, don't push at all (pay attention to coordinating the five-character formula and the three tones). You should relax from toe to heel, loosen one section and leave one section empty until you reach Baihui point on the top of your head, and gently close your eyes. Secondly, you should look down slowly and horizontally from the cortex on the top of Baihui point. Looking down, I feel empty. Continue to look down layer by layer until you see your toes.
The second sentence looks at its shape from the outside, but it has no shape.
The second sentence is the second level of infinite qigong. The practice method on the second floor can be practiced while sitting, standing and lying down. First of all, you should relax all over, and you can't exert yourself at all. You should coordinate the five-character formula with three.
Adjust, from toe to heel, loosen one section upwards and empty one section until it is empty to Baihui point on the top of your head and all over your body. Look down at the body shape from the scalp layer by layer with your mind, and loosen the layer you see with your mind until there is nothing left. Slowly loosen your fingers and toes from Baihui point in this way, and the overall feeling of your body will be invisible. The above practice method is to observe the inside several times first, and then observe the outside several times (usually 7 times). This kind of repeated practice takes about half an hour every day, and it takes about 3 to 6 months to be effective.
The third sentence is far from its object, and it has nothing.
The practice method of the third sentence, first of all, can not exert any force, adjust every part of the body very comfortably, and then empty all the inside of the body, only feel the body shape. This feeling can only be achieved by practicing the first two paragraphs well. With this kind of body surface feeling, you can enlarge the body surface feeling, just like a hollow balloon touching all the objects around your body, and then empty all the inside of your body, look inward and slowly enlarge the internal space. While zooming in, you can use your mind to push all the objects around you. The inner space is getting bigger and bigger, and all the objects around you are getting farther and farther away from you until you can't see them, as if there were no sundries in the whole space. After practicing this feeling, you will have internal qi, which is called infinite qigong.
The fourth sentence is the unity of things and me. Without me, there is nothing.
The fourth sentence is the internal strength of practicing Tai Chi internal strength (everyone who practices Tai Chi internal strength wants to practice his internal strength well and send it out lightly, which is the pursuit of everyone who practices internal strength). Tai Chi's internal strength and motivation should be practiced in two parts. The first part (Tai Chi internal skill) is the unity of things and me. What is the unity of things and me? The unity of things and me is a feeling, that is to say, after the third stage of practice, there is internal qi, and the shape of the human body feels like an air ball. With the mind (the command system of the brain), the ball can gently touch the surrounding objects.
Zoom in and out, this is the unity of things and me. When we practice the unity of things and me, we will produce Taiji internal strength. Part II: (Energetic) Nothing without me, what is (Energetic) Nothing without me? When we fight with people, we have each other and each other. Without me and everything, we can suddenly empty ourselves, let the other side have no landing, and shoot our inner strength at each other like an arrow. This is called (vigorous). Without me, there is nothing.
Essentials of Taiji Qigong Practice
(1) Relaxation and quietness complement each other and conform to nature.
There is a close relationship between relaxation and quietness. Full body relaxation can promote quietness, and it will inevitably show full body relaxation after quietness, so the two are complementary. The so-called relaxation, on the one hand, is the relaxation of the whole body muscles, and this kind of relaxation must master the state of relaxation and perseverance.
Lying flat is easier to relax the whole body, but after posing, shake the whole body slightly to achieve the comfort of lying flat. The maintenance of standing posture and sitting posture requires a certain degree of muscle tension, but it also requires maximum relaxation.
And relaxation refers to the relaxation of consciousness. First of all, relax the muscles of the whole body and make the whole body feel comfortable and relaxed.
Besides, we shouldn't focus too much on breathing or staying in the abdomen. We should eliminate tension and relax our mental consciousness.
The so-called silence means that, relatively speaking, you can breathe in and out of silence and feel carefree. In terms of consciousness, you emphasize that you can enter peace by keeping consciousness and eliminating distractions. In a word, relaxation is the key to practice. If you master it well, you will get good results soon. If you don't master it properly, you will often make mistakes.
(2) practice your mind and spirit.
Qigong's "Qi" mainly refers to the true qi (vitality). When you start practicing Qi, you must start from practicing lung qi (breathing qi). The exercise of lung qi adopts different breathing methods because of different methods. Even so, no matter what techniques, most of them require breathing to be leisurely, even, thin, long and slow.
A well-trained person can breathe two or three times a minute to form a slow abdominal breathing and breathing exercise, which needs to be practiced step by step from shallow to deep, from fast to slow.
It is not required to form a complete deep and long breath in a short time. It is necessary to carry out concept induction at the beginning of training to achieve natural breathing to a certain extent.
The so-called practice, one is to eliminate distractions and achieve silence; Second, stay in the abdomen and let the whole body undergo more profound changes. It is difficult for beginners to get rid of distractions quickly. It takes a certain period of practice to gradually reduce distractions and achieve the requirement of quietness.
How to combine the intention and spirit of practice in the process of practice? When you start practicing breathing, you should also keep breathing consciously to help you practice breathing as soon as possible. Maintain depth and length. After the formation of uniform breathing, pay attention to the ups and downs of the abdomen with breathing.
When breathing exercises are very skilled, even if you don't pay attention to breathing, you can naturally reach your abdomen. At this time, you can simply stay in the abdomen. In this way, the two can be closely combined to achieve the unity of God and God, so that the true qi is abundant and the purpose of treating diseases and keeping fit can be achieved.
(3) Emotional balance, feeling comfortable
In qigong therapy, we must emphasize emotional balance and happy mood, so as to promote health, eliminate diseases, and feel comfortable and happy after each work.
(4) Step by step, don't rush for success.
In the initial practice, you can't rush for success, you need the drug effect, and the effect is gradually revealed with the process of practice time. Although the training method is not very complicated, it needs to be mastered and practiced for a certain period of time.
Take internal training as an example, you can master posture first and exercise deep breathing. When you are proficient in deep breathing, you can add stop and close. After you stop and close your breath skillfully, you can add silent words, and then you can add your tongue to the palate. These movements are skilled, you can master them step by step, and they are often smooth.
