About the correct posture of Xingyiquan! ! If you know anything, come in! !

The meaning is very simple and clear. Let’s use some common concepts to explain it.

To explain this passage, let’s mention a concept, "qi". In simple terms, there are three Species:

1 The most basic qi of Neijiaquan can basically be explained by "physical strength" (it seems that Chinese medicine talks about the movement and transformation of the five internal organs, or it can also be the movement and transformation of "innate qi") .In layman's terms, it can be said to be "post-climate".

2 The so-called "innate qi" can actually be used in what ordinary people call "energy" and "jing qi shen" (a more subtle one). This description, in fact, if we want to explain it in depth, we have to explain the concept of "first/nurture". This involves some philosophical thoughts of ancient Chinese internal cultivation. It is equivalent to saying that people are born from parents in heaven and earth, and apart from the gifts given by parents Tangible things are fundamentally the invisible "energy" given to you by "heaven and earth" - the so-called innate air. The so-called "rootless tree" means that people have lost this connection with "nature" intentionally or unintentionally the day after tomorrow. "The "ability" of connection).

3 Breathing Qi. I won't explain this.

These three are connected. It's a lot to talk about...you You can find relevant discussions, let's return to the topic.

"The force originates from the heel, which means breathing through the heel"

An ancient sage said that "the real person's breath comes from the heel", It is said that people who acquire a perfect balance and are innately solid have harmonious meridians, innate and natural beings are one, and there is no "obstruction". Their breathing can drive the life body (acquired Qi) to complete and smooth movement, and the innate Qi breeds it. .This sentence has a lot of explanations. "Heel" means foot. Here, I am explaining it in a "deep level". Of course, in fact, you will know later that it does not violate it.

The statement here means that in form and meaning, foot is like the source of breathing, the starting point of the movement and transformation of "qi force". In fact, we might as well say by the way, in the acquired world, the top is Li and the bottom is Kan, and what is the refinement? Kan Zhong A yang ear is in the body and hidden in the legs and feet. Therefore, usually when a person is in a good state, a warm air will rise from the feet and go up to the spine. This can be said to be "half of half". Oh, otherwise how can the form and meaning be achieved? What is the theory of "refining essence and transforming qi"?

--This sentence is explained.

"The body should be folded in three parts, and the other parts should be bent at the waist, with the head on the head, with the feet kicked up, with the chest open, and with the abdomen strengthened. Don't use clumsy strength."

If you look at Xingyiquan from the side, whether it is standing or rowing, from top to bottom, isn't it a straight tree with a natural three-fold fold? The center of gravity is always on the same level. The waist is slumped. \The head\chest is opened, and when viewed from the side, the spine is relaxed and stretched naturally. You can refer to the buttocks. If the posture is correct, the buttocks will not be raised. As for the solid abdomen\stepping feet, it is more natural. Generally speaking, if the posture is correct, Without using "clumsy force", the front foot does not have much "pushing force". "Clumsy force" means that you take the initiative to exert force and use unnatural force. But once the "qi sinking" (solid abdomen) goes away, the front foot will naturally Just "kick". There is no need to explain too much, and explanations are useless. You will understand it after practicing for a long time. But more importantly, don't pay too much attention to "strengthening the abdomen". Otherwise, it will become crooked.--This is why practice When standing, it does not mean "the longer you stand, the better" (of course, naturally, standing longer is another sign of deep skill, but the standard of practice must be natural, rather than emphasizing "long").- --Let's talk about the white point again, which means that we understand that "strengthening the abdomen" does not happen overnight...

--This sentence mainly says that the posture should be based on the naturalness of the body. Do not use too much "active" force, including A solid belly. (But for most people, "natural" postures don't feel natural, so for beginners, it's best to find a big mirror or find a "master", not necessarily a "famous teacher".)

"You should not force your breath to make luck. The fists of Neijiaquan use the acquired shape (that is, the correct posture) to nourish the innate Qi (pay attention to the word "Yang"). The so-called "Qi-raising" is weak, and the Qi-nurturing is pure strength. Also"

Xian Qi cannot be seen (in fact, after understanding the essence, difference and connection between Xian Tian\Later Weather\"Vital Qi", we can know that the emphasis here is on "Xian Qi", but in fact the performance What comes out is still "acquired weather"), which is nurtured in the acquired destiny. Breathing can promote the transformation of acquired destiny qi, but if it is not natural and moderate, it will harm the life's qi. Therefore, breathing must be natural. This is There are essential differences between breathing Qi and life Qi (posterior Qi) and innate Qi. However, there is a connection between transportation and transformation.

The reason why Xingyiquan can internally refine the "spirit" is not that " "Forced breathing" or "intentionally strengthened breathing" lies in the fact that the posture of the body (body) leads to the movement of life energy, thereby maintaining the innate energy in it.

---In fact, this sentence There is a deeper meaning, which is the meaning of "Kanli" I mentioned earlier. In short, natural breathing and natural posture are the key. As long as the acquired and innate weather are vigorous, the upper and lower parts can be integrated into one body, and the "qi" "Pure strength" is what Mencius calls "the greatest strength". But emphasizing (forcing) the so-called breathing Qi will only cause internal friction and damage the Qi, which is not advisable!

Hope it can help you.
