In contemporary social life, people often suffer from high-tempo work, and they are busy and nervous. Therefore, we need a quiet way to balance them and adjust their mentality effectively.
Let's devote ourselves to Tai Ji Chuan's practice, and let's go with the flow. Once we enter this ethereal and quiet state, we will forget all our troubles, abandon impetuousness, and blend harmoniously with nature, so that our body and mind can be fully relaxed. This is a wonderful sense of comfort and a rare high-emotional activity full of aesthetic feeling.
Tai Ji Chuan's regulation of human body and mind includes the following four aspects:
1, the perfect coordination of consciousness and action
When I played Tai Ji Chuan, I was absorbed and highly focused. Turn your eyes and follow you to move your steps; The movements are coherent, round, smooth and coordinated; Moving is static, and there is movement in the static. These are very beneficial to the coordination of brain excitation and inhibition. Tai Ji Chuan should strive to achieve "meaning is greater than strength". When practicing boxing, we should use more "consciousness" and "idea" to bring action, rather than relying on more "strength" (clumsy strength) to achieve the effect. This can not only achieve the perfect cooperation between consciousness and action, but also indulge in comfort and ethereal.
2. Flow in posture change
Tai Ji Chuan from "starting" to "closing", regardless of the actual situation changes, are interlocking, coherent and round, in one go, without pause and joints, the whole set of movements is like flowing water. No matter men, women and children, playing Tai Ji Chuan can eventually achieve amazing beauty.
Tai Ji Chuan is a kind of "flexible martial arts", and its movements are mainly combined with rigidity and softness. "Softness and relaxation" is the basic point of Tai Ji Chuan.
"Soft" exercise can make the muscles not too tense, the posture stable, the posture stretching, not stiff. After exercise, you are sweating like a pig without panting, giving people a relaxed and happy feeling. However, it plays a unique role in regulating the functions of cerebral cortex and autonomic nervous system. During exercise, the breathing will not be too rapid, and the physical exertion will not be too great or too fast, so it is very suitable for the elderly and infirm, especially those who are sick or recovered, and it is a health care exercise suitable for this group.
Because Tai Ji Chuan is generous and natural and unrestrained, collective exercise has its own special charm, which is commendable. Tai Ji Chuan's performance at the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games left an unforgettable impression on the world. Tai Ji Chuan's action reached its acme.
3. Rich life connotation
Man is the soul of the universe. For the essence of life, for the consciousness of human nature, for the perfection of personality and for the understanding of life, it takes a lifetime to work hard.
Tai Ji Chuan itself has a powerful aesthetic education function from the inside out. Tai Ji Chuan can cultivate self-cultivation and enlighten people's humanistic consciousness. People who practice Tai Ji Chuan must be calm, and gradually hone their calmness in the process from hard to skillful. Some people with bad temper have changed their personalities by practicing Tai Ji Chuan. "Tai Chi never goes out for ten years", and Tai Ji Chuan is also a kind of kung fu. "Kung Fu" takes time, and it can cultivate people's tenacious willpower, which is a unique prescription and means for China people to cultivate their self-cultivation. At the same time, it can cultivate people to live endlessly, cherish life and grasp a healthy and wonderful life.
Teacher Tai Ji Chuan, who is successful in self-cultivation, often gives people a calm and profound, introverted and solemn, heavy and not floating, concise and not stagnant, without artificial feeling, elegant and generous, admirable.
Tai Ji Chuan can also teach people to treat things with dialectical thinking, for example, to treat life and death, to deal with things, to consider cause and effect, yin and yang, priorities and so on. And we should find some regular things, so as to avoid detours and achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Tai Ji Chuan's artistic realm does not lie in the superb martial arts and the physical pleasure obtained by the unobstructed meridians. But after the tempering of bones and muscles, it gradually rose to rationality. This is the realm where the great men of Taiji are different from ordinary people.
Some people say that Tai Chi practitioners are "crazy", that is, it is a very difficult and painful process to cultivate one's self-cultivation until forgetting oneself. And Tai Ji Chuan will be a golden key for us to enter the realm of self-transcendence. This is Tai Ji Chuan's greatest contribution to mankind. Goethe said: "Art should be the expression of morality. The common fault of art lies in weakness, and its root lies in the lack of great personality. "
Tai Ji Chuan can help us achieve psychological maturity, improve sentiment and perfect personality. "for boxing, relying on morality, relying on benevolence, swimming in surgery."
Tai Ji Chuan can also cultivate sentiment, which is the promotion and liberation of our spiritual realm. Tai Ji Chuan can make our mind complete, the harmony between man and nature, wisdom and cleverness. It makes us slowly indifferent to fame and fortune and forget personal gains and losses. It can be said that "quietness makes everything natural, while time makes people happy." Let's get rid of vulgar tastes and overcome the habit of being competitive and forgetting righteousness. To pursue all things that are true, good and beautiful, and forget those things when practicing boxing, without mystery and self-disciplined life taste, it is really a paradise for the soul, spiritual pleasure and spiritual liberation.
The true beauty of Tai Ji Chuan is a free state where body and mind are integrated, heaven and earth are trinity, and the soul is purified without being burdened by any foreign objects. Simple and the world can't compete with it, indifferent and infinite, and all good things follow it. This is a beautiful ideal that transcends everything and is released from the heart. It is a perfect experience of a high degree of harmony between man and nature.
4, strengthening the body resistance and eliminating evil spirits, and balancing yin and yang
Tai Ji Chuan is a treasure of traditional health preservation in China, which captures the three treasures of "essence, qi and spirit". Most people who practice Tai Ji Chuan for a long time live longer and enjoy it. Tai Ji Chuan can strengthen the body resistance, eliminate pathogenic factors, balance yin and yang, regulate the spirit and improve the function.
strengthen body resistance and eliminate disease
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "healthy qi exists in the interior, and evil cannot be done" and "when evil is exerted, its qi will be lost". Therefore, the occurrence of diseases depends not only on pathogenic factors, but also on human immunity and ability to maintain health. Tai Ji Chuan is to exercise healthy qi, improve human body's ability to resist diseases and pathogens, coordinate blood circulation, viscera, normal metabolism and prolong life.
Balance yin and yang
Chinese medicine believes that the occurrence of diseases is due to the imbalance of yin and yang. Tai Ji Chuan's function of regulating the balance of Yin and Yang is realized through the dual modulation effect of "resisting hyperactivity and helping the weak". Tai Ji Chuan's routines have also changed, from dynamic to static, from rigid to soft. These reflect the constant changes of "Yin eliminating Yang" and "Yang eliminating Yin". Mastering the law of yin and yang changes, the degree of dynamic and static fit, and combining rigidity with softness in practice methods also have a certain influence on yin and yang of human body. Such as: "the movement is appropriate, the qi and blood are smooth, and all diseases are not born, so it will last all day."
Recuperate the spirit and improve the function
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes "indifference to nothingness" when exercising, that is, eliminating distractions and relaxing the whole body, which not only relaxes muscles, but also reduces the impulse of muscles to enter the cerebral cortex, so that the human body is in a "relaxed reaction state" and achieves the effect of improving physiological functions. Taijiquan adjusts its spirit through relaxation, tranquility and nature. When practicing, people can enter a carefree and carefree leisure state, so they can eliminate psychological fatigue, make people feel comfortable, eliminate negative emotions and get rid of morbid psychology.
Persistence all the year round can make impatient, anxious, impatient and suspicious characters become calm, open-minded, calm and easy-going, and also cultivate perseverance and calm spirit.
Practicing Tai Chi focuses on mental health, while practicing boxing and pushing hands is only superficial. What is more important is to exercise people's willpower, self-control, endurance, self-confidence and tenacious attitude towards life. In this process, they will experience a beautiful life and get healthy bodies. Practicing Tai Chi is your lifelong friend and wealth! Stick to it together!
