A leisurely life that begins with the possession of a game character

There is nothing wrong with practicing martial arts in stance as a hobby, but if it is just for physical fitness, Zhang Lan’s advice to Cheng Liqiang is to only stand in stance and step back when practicing martial arts.

When you reach middle age and have just had a child, if you can't find a master to focus on teaching and practicing, you can just treat martial arts training as an occasional hobby.

If you insist on it for a long time, just stand still. Now society is on the rise. Most of the time, social security is very good. If the body is in sub-health, it is better to take good care of the body first.

If you don't practice martial arts properly, you can even easily injure yourself. Another reason is that if you gain confidence after practicing martial arts for a period of time, your behavior will be different from before.

I don't practice martial arts regularly and practice with others. I don't have any awareness in my mind about the severity of my shots and where I should avoid during sparring.

An accidental attack may appear to be a light attack, but depending on the location, an accidental attack may be fatal.

Zhang Lan saw a news some time ago. There was a conflict between two acquaintances. One party saw the other party walking on the road at the night market. The other party, who had just had a drink, became angry and picked up the small fruit that Ruo Wan was carrying. The knife hit the opponent's thigh and stabbed him once, and then left.

Those who were traveling with him hurriedly started a fight and quickly pulled the person away. They thought nothing was wrong, but they took it and stabbed the victim's femoral artery. In just two or three minutes, he died of excessive blood loss.

This is a typical case of not knowing what is serious. Even those who started the fight at the time will inevitably end up in jail.

Going back to the stance, Zhang Lan asked Cheng Liqiang to stand in the yard for a while, and then he gave Cheng Liqiang a demonstration.

The stance itself is very simple. The first step is to stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. The second step is to adjust the body and mind, relax the body, breathe steadily, and have a calm mind. The third step is to bend your knees slightly, as if squatting or standing, and clasp your hands together. The height of the hands is between the chest and abdomen, the fingers are spread apart, the palms of the two hands are facing each other, and the distance between the two hands is comfortable, forming a ball-hugging shape.

Afterwards, Zhang Lan asked Cheng Liqiang to stand there and explained the key points to him.

The most important thing in Zhanzhuang is to relax the body. The first point is to use your head to gain strength. Just push your head upward slightly, as if there is a thread pulling your head. At this time, the neck is stretched and the lower jaw is slightly held. At this time, you will feel your head pushing upward gently. After practicing for a long time, , you will feel that your thinking is particularly quick and your feelings are particularly sensitive. The second point is to hold your chest and pull your back. When standing, your hands are like holding a ball. Your chest is empty and your back is rounded. You will feel very full. If you find this feeling, the air will not float on it, and it will be easy to establish abdominal breathing. a feeling of. Therefore, the process of standing posture is actually slowly practicing abdominal breathing.

Many people misunderstood holding the chest and pulling the back as holding the chest and hunching the back. Some people with insufficient lung energy like to stand with their chests in their arms and their spines curved, especially some university professors and senior intellectuals, who like to stand like this, as if they are very respectful to others. In fact, this is a symptom of insufficient inner Qi, especially insufficient Lung Qi. Therefore, when standing in the stance, you should hold your chest and straighten your back, that is, straighten your spine and relax your chest at the same time, and make a posture of holding a ball with your hands.

The third point is to relax your waist and sit on your hips. Loose means to relax, relax your waist. Sitting means sitting down, and the hips are the hip joints. The main purpose of relaxing the waist and sitting on the hips is to relax the waist. Most people like to straighten their waist, which causes the waist muscles to be very tense. Zhan Zhuang requires the waist to be relaxed. When relaxing the waist, the waist is slightly pressed back, forming a straight line from the lumbar vertebrae to the spine, and the waist is flat, so that the waist can be relaxed.

How to verify? For example, if you stand against a wall, if you don't loosen your waist, you can insert one hand between your waist and the wall. If the waist-loosening movement is done properly and the waist is really pressed against the wall, the hands will not be able to get in. This is a measurement standard, which means that our entire waist is completely flat against the wall. So, how do you sit on your hips? In fact, the abdomen is drawn in. When the abdomen is drawn in, the waist will automatically sink. In this way, the abdomen will be thicker. Therefore, after practicing Tai Chi for a long time, the Qi in the Dantian area of ​​the lower abdomen will be particularly full and substantial, and the ability to resist blows will be strong.

The fourth point is to relax the knee joint. As soon as the knee joints are relaxed, all the strength of the whole body falls on the soles of the feet. The Yongquan point on the soles of the feet is the starting point of the kidney meridian, and the kidney water gushes out from here like spring water. There are twelve meridians in the body. Common people call Yongquan point the soles of the feet. Many people know that rubbing the soles of the feet can cure insomnia. The reason is that after rubbing the soles of the feet to heat them up, the anger will drop into the kidney water. This is called the combination of water and fire. Helps people with heart-kidney incompatibility, water-fire indigestion, and water-fire insomnia to fall asleep. This effect can also be achieved through standing postures, sinking the Qi into the spring.

In this way, put the whole body's strength into the soles of the feet, do not exert any force on the body, and the more relaxed the better, this is also a way to induce qi and blood to flow downward. After standing for a long time, Zhan Zhuang has been practiced well. It also has the effect of Lajin, which can straighten the entire spine. We all know that children's spines are very straight, but as people grow older, their spines become curved. Therefore, whether the spine is stretched or not has a lot to do with people's health.

What the ancients were best at was to grasp the main contradiction and solve it, and other problems would be easily solved. Zhanzhuang is an excellent way to fully stretch your spine! Many human diseases, such as headaches, cervical spondylosis, frozen shoulder, dizziness, palpitation, epigastric pain, diarrhea, lumbar spondylosis, numbness of the lower limbs, etc., are closely related to spinal dislocation, disorder, intervertebral disc herniation and other problems. A healthy and stretched spine , many diseases can be solved naturally.

Because the spine is very closely connected to the internal organs, and each internal organ has nerves connected to the spinal nerves. Therefore, as long as the spine is well practiced, many problems with the internal organs will automatically be cured. There is a set of medicine in the West called chiropractic, which can treat many internal diseases through chiropractic. This is the principle.

Zhanzhuang can cure diseases, and the principle is also based on chiropractic. After adjusting the position and condition of the spine, diseases of internal organs will automatically be cured. No matter whether ordinary people are walking, standing, sitting or lying down, a lot of weight is placed on the spine, so the spine (especially the lumbar spine and cervical spine) is prone to problems. Through Zhanzhuang, the whole body is relaxed, the incorrect pressure on the spine is relieved, the spine is fully stretched, and it is relaxed.

When the body is completely relaxed, the movement of the internal organs becomes active and the internal Qi begins to recover. The child's spine is straight, the belly is round and full, and the whole body is round. This is a sign that the human body is in a healthy state. Through zhanzhuang, you actually restore the health of the human body. (End of chapter)
