"Qi Movement Science" is a masterpiece launched by Professor Li Shaobo on his 90th birthday. It is a sign that the academic system of Zhen Qi Movement is becoming more complete. The academic study of Zhenqi movement is guided by the spirit of the Three Saints and the medical theory of "TCM prevention". It relies on the philosophical foundation of the universe, Chinese medicine theory and modern physiological theory to form a complete theory of "Zhenqi movement". The medical and health care practice method "" is the core academic content, and has been obtained from the "Huangdi Neijing", "Nei Jing Tu", "Qi Jade Pendant" inscriptions, Taoism, Confucianism and inner alchemy, Yi Gua, "Journey to the West" and other traditions The confirmation of each theory is verified by scientific experimental research, clinical summary, case practice and experience with detailed data. Theory guides practice, and practice tests theory, forming a highly scientific medical academic system for the movement of Qi. It attempts to supplement the content of the seventh volume of "Quanzhen Guiding Qi" in "Shi Shi Yin Zhi" in the "Huangdi Neijing" and reveal the ancient real people's worship. Create secret skills to benefit all living beings.
The "Huangdi Neijing", known as "the sect of the Supreme Tao and the beginning of life", mainly studies the essence, Qi and spirit of human life activities, and how to make them conform to nature and continue to exist and reduce Material desires consume one's own energy in order to achieve the goal of "having the same form and spirit for the rest of his life." This is the true meaning of the "Internal Canon" of treating diseases before they become ill, maintaining health, and maintaining health and longevity. "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" mentions many times the principles of calming the mind, moving the qi, and preserving the body and spirit. However, the ancients regarded this as a heavenly secret that was not allowed to pass on to others, so the practical methods of the Tao in the seven volumes of "Su Wen" were kept secret by the masters. Because the "Nei Jing" lacks proof of the medical health-preserving practices of Quanzhen Qi, it makes it difficult for people to understand the secrets of the movement and movement of Qi in the human body. This has even led to the "Nei Jing" being often regarded as metaphysics and being unnecessarily criticized.
In fact, many of the entries cited in many chapters of the "Nei Jing" belong to the practical knowledge of ancient saints and are the key to unlocking the mysteries of human life activities. For example, "Su Wen·Ancient Innocence Theory" says: "Tianxiao is empty, the true energy follows it, the spirit is internally guarded, and the disease is always safe." "Be constant and don't work rashly, so you can be in harmony with your body and spirit, and you can live your whole life and live a hundred years without passing away" and so on, which highly summarizes the principles, methods and effects of conforming to nature and maintaining health, and points out that following the example of the harmony of yin and yang The profound meaning of the way, the mechanism of mathematical changes and the spiritual inner guard, the void of vitality, the accumulation of energy and the prevention of diseases are the essential connotations of Quanzhen Qi Guoqi.
Professor Li, who has devoted his whole life to the research and exploration of the operation of the true qi of traditional Chinese medicine, started from illness to medicine, and from medicine to enlightenment, he realized that all things in the universe are born from the innate and acquired, and the innate qi is nourished by the acquired ( (life energy), and preserve oneself, and the body and soul will last forever. Therefore, based on the theory of "Quanzhen Guiding Qi" in the Huangdi Neijing and the key points of various ancient schools of qi movement and health care, combined with more than 70 years of personal practice, more than 40 years of clinical observation and nearly ten years of scientific experiments, we created the book "Strong True Qi". The "Qi Movement Method" that circulates and enhances vitality of life. It is a self-study and self-sustaining medical and health care practice method. It mainly regulates the breath and concentrates the mind, and guides the qi completely in the tranquility of nothingness to maintain health and health. The set of exercises is mainly static exercises, supplemented by dynamic exercises, and combines movement and stillness to improve, so as to achieve the purpose of extreme stillness and vividness, extreme movement and stillness, and the mutual nourishment of movement and stillness, so as to achieve the purpose of endless life.
Jing Gong is a five-step method for moving the true qi. It is to relax the body and calm down the mind. It uses the method of regulating the breath to cultivate the true qi, penetrate Rendu, regulate yin and yang, strengthen the organs, promote The metabolism of cells gradually realizes the stage of refining Qi, refining Qi and transforming spirit, and refining spirit to return deficiency, enhances the protective inhibitory power of the cerebral cortex, and promotes the orderliness of life activities. In this way, the inherent potential within the body can be tapped, and a series of self-healing abilities such as self-regulation, self-repair, self-treatment, and self-reconstruction can be exerted to achieve good effects of preventing and treating diseases, developing wisdom, beautifying and strengthening the body, and extending life.
Dong Gong is a set of five exercises with the core of "Walking around the sky". It uses the form of movement, cooperates with breathing, guides the movement of Qi, uses postures to attract one's spirit to eliminate distracting thoughts, and slowly Slowly makes the cerebral cortex change from movement to stillness, exerts its protective inhibitory power, and plays a role in stimulating the body's physiological functions.
The former is static and extremely vivid, while the latter is dynamic and extremely still, and the purpose achieved is the same. In Professor Li's practice, the combination of movement and stillness was born one after another, pointing directly to the superior advanced practice - the true energy gathering method. When the hand gestures are moved, the true energy moves accordingly, and there is no chance of distracting thoughts. This method includes high-level static exercises and dynamic exercises. Movement and stillness complement each other to achieve divine enlightenment. Physiological self-movement, repetition of disciplines, return to true nature, and the gathering of the three treasures.
After more than sixty years of clinical application, it has significant effects on more than 80 chronic, stubborn, and difficult diseases that have not been cured for a long time. Scientific experiments have also confirmed the scientific efficacy of this exercise, showing its Strong vitality. This method is based on traditional Chinese medicine science, is concise and easy to learn, has short-term supervision, has significant curative effect, has no side effects, and is suitable for all ages. It is well received by the medical community, the scientific community and the general public.
Practice has proven that the Qi movement method is indeed the fundamental method for guiding Qi completely, accumulating essence and mind, cultivating nature and fixing life, maintaining health and complying with the laws of nature. The practice of the exercises not only enables people to treat and prevent diseases, but also brings new information about human life, confirming the true meaning of medical health cultivation and related theories in the "Huangdi Neijing" one by one.
Sages of all ages believe that people come from nature and return to nature. This is a process of "creating something out of nothing and transforming into nothingness, and seeing the true nature without rebirth", which is in line with the natural law of creating something out of nothing. Practicing the Qi movement method can achieve its end, which has been proved by practice under the theoretical guidance of the "Three Holy Ways" of the unity of heaven and man.
From this, Professor Li believes that the "Qi Movement Method" he has created throughout his life is the practical method of understanding the laws of nature, communicating with the nature of the universe, and moving Qi to maintain health in the "Huangdi Neijing". The publication of "Zhen Qi Movement Theory" is not only the inevitable result of the maturation of the theory of Zhen Qi Movement based on the "Zhen Qi Movement Method" and the continuous improvement of the academic system; it is also the realization of Professor Li's exposition of the key points of health preservation in the "Huangdi Neijing" and the reproduction of the ancient sage The sages cultivated the truth, explored the science of human life, and revealed the true meaning of traditional health care. Professor Li, as a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, has been trying to supplement the content of "Quanzhen Qi Guidance" in the seventh volume of "Shi Shi Yin Zhi" in "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic", so that the secret skills of the ancient real people can be revealed to the world, and he has made certain contributions to the traditional medicine of the motherland. contribution. At the same time, Professor Li strives to popularize the "Zhen Qi Movement Method" to promote the "Three Holy Ways" and embody the spiritual essence of "releasing bondage and getting rid of difficulties, guiding Qi with complete truth, saving Li Yuan from benevolence and longevity, and helping the disadvantaged to win peace".
Traditional Chinese medicine has a history of thousands of years. It is a summary of the rich experience of the Chinese people in their long-term fight against diseases. It is an important part of our country’s excellent culture and contributes to the health care of the Chinese people and the reproduction of the Chinese nation. Changsheng has made a huge contribution.
Professor Li Shaobo devoted his life to the practice and research of traditional Chinese medicine and health care. The theory of "Qi movement" proposed by him is mainly based on the "Huangdi Nei Jing" and other traditional Chinese medicine classics, and is named after the theory of "Internal Canon" of accumulating essence, whole mind, and complete qi guidance. The practical method at the core of the theory is a set of five-step practical methods to enhance life vitality and vigorously circulate Qi. The process is short but the effect is significant. Practice has proved it to be a scientific medical and health care method.
After more than sixty years of clinical application, it has significant effects on a variety of chronic, stubborn, and difficult diseases that have not been cured for a long time. Scientific experiments have also confirmed the scientific nature of this method and demonstrated its power. vitality. The practice of the exercises has brought new information about human life. People can clearly feel various physiological changes in the body, and thus can understand the theories of viscera, meridians, qi and chemistry of traditional Chinese medicine, and even the theory of yin and yang and the five elements, especially the theory of the movement of true qi. Get verified.
On his 90th birthday, Professor Li launched the masterpiece "Zhen Qi Movement Theory", which aims to explain that "Zhen Qi" is the core of the theory of "Inner Canon" and that the movement of Zhen Qi is the key to human life activities. "Five Steps of Practicing the Movement of True Qi" is part of the "Full True Qi Guidance" in the lost seventh volume of the "Nei Jing". "Five Steps of Qi Movement Practice" is not only the fundamental method to communicate between man and nature, exhaust rationality, cultivate nature and fix life, but also a science that verifies the theory of traditional Chinese medicine and explores the mysteries of human life. It is the theoretical guidance of the "Three Holy Ways" The crystallization of life sciences.
The theory of Qi movement is not only rooted in the classic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, but also verifies traditional Chinese medicine based on the results of the "five-step practice of Qi movement" and greatly develops the core content of traditional Chinese medicine!
The theory of Qi movement is a magnificent pearl in the motherland’s medical treasure house and an integral part of the splendid civilization of the Chinese nation.
Infuriating Qi circulates in the meridian tunnel and spreads throughout the body rhythmically with the help of the driving force of breathing movement. Therefore, the five-step practice of exercising Qi movement must follow the natural laws of human life science, starting with adjusting breathing.
Respiration is the breathing movement of the lungs through the expansion and contraction of the chest and ribs and the lifting and lowering of the diaphragm. Respiration includes internal respiration and external respiration. Adult external respiration absorbs oxygen and discharges carbon dioxide at a frequency of 18 times per minute when calm.
Internal respiration refers to the activity of Qi in the body, which is the process by which cells absorb oxygen and nutrients and convert them into energy. The fetus cannot directly absorb oxygen and nutrients in the mother's womb. They must be supplied by the mother through the placenta and umbilical cord to enable nutritional development and growth, and form a complete human body from the embryonic state. Of course, this change process is very complicated. In the past, this kind of internal breathing was called fetal breath.
External breathing is acquired after birth. Before human beings are born, during the innate development process, they already have a respiratory system, which is originally stationary. The first external breath at birth relies on the pressure of the atmosphere to send air into the lungs. The lungs, which were originally still, are suddenly blown open by the atmosphere. They expel the air with stressful physiological activities, causing the vocal cords to make a "wow" sound. , awakening all the physiological activities sleeping in the body, and life begins the day after tomorrow. From then on, the intrapulmonary pressure and atmospheric pressure maintain this pressure relationship, and the activity of expelling the old and incorporating the new is carried out rhythmically.
The function of breathing is not only to absorb oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide, but more importantly, to use breathing movements to promote internal respiration, promote cell metabolism, promote the circulation of true energy through the meridians, and give life to various tissues of the body. vitality, so that various tissues and organs can be organically connected. This is a comprehensive understanding of respiratory movement. "Suwen·Linglan Secret Code" says: "The lung is the official of the prime minister, and it governs the joints." It shows that under the control of the heart, the rhythmic breathing movement of the lungs plays the physiological role of lifting in and out of the body. ?
Man is born from the energy of heaven and earth, and is formed by the law of the four seasons. The principle of correspondence between heaven and man is also reflected in the breathing movement.
"Huang Di Wai Jing: Breathing Chapter" Lei Gong asked Yu Qi Bo: "Does the breathing of human Qi correspond to the breathing of heaven and earth? Qi Bo said, heaven, earth and people are the same." How does the heaven and the earth breathe? "Laozi Chapter 5" says, "Between the heaven and the earth, it is like a wooden stick"! The formation of the heaven, earth and the universe is the two qi of yin and yang floating up to form the sky and condensing downward to become the earth. They open and close like a stick. There is no bottom, the shackles are connected, and the vast flow flows without any obstacles. An ancient saying goes: "When you breathe it in, you think it's a proverb, and when you breathe it in, you think it's a humiliation." In the correspondence between heaven and man, human beings exhale carbon dioxide and inhale natural oxygen. Therefore, the "Huangdi Wai Jing" says, "It echoes the sky and echoes the earth." In the human body's internal breathing, when exhaling, the heart fire moves from top to bottom; when inhaling, the kidney water moves from bottom to top, controlling the rise and fall of the qi machine. "Suwen·Yin-Yang Yingxiang Dalun" says: "The earth's atmosphere is clouds, and the weather is rain; rain comes out of the earth's atmosphere, and clouds come out of the weather." The rise and fall of Qi in nature is caused by the decline of weather and the rise of earth's Qi. In the human body, "Huangdi Wai Jing" also says: "Exhaling the heart is also the lungs, which comes from the sky. Inhaling the kidneys is also the liver, which comes from the earth's Qi. That’s what I said.” As for the energy of heaven and earth, yin rises and yang falls, without any obstacles. If the Qi of Heaven does not descend, the Qi of Earth will not rise; if the Qi of Earth does not rise, the Qi of Heaven will not descend. This causes the heaven and earth to change, the yin and yang are separated, and disasters arise. If a person does not have the breathing activity of going in and out, rising and falling, "if the breathing goes in and out, the divine mechanism will be destroyed, and if the breathing rises and falls, the breath will be isolated and dangerous", then he will not be able to survive for a moment. ?
Breathing is a mechanical movement. When inhaling, the chest and ribs move outward and upward, and the diaphragm descends. At this time, the chest cavity expands, the abdominal cavity shrinks relatively, and the lower abdomen is compressed. This mechanical expansion and contraction movement of the chest and abdominal cavity also inflates and flows the inner Qi. The true energy of the three Yin meridians of the foot moves upward with the movement of inhalation. For example, when inhaling, the true Qi of the Kidney Meridian goes up along the Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyin, enters the abdomen (Dantian), merges with the Chong Meridian, takes the navel and ascends to the chest, and injects into the Pericardium Meridian to communicate with the Heart Qi. This is the so-called "kidney water ebbs to relieve the heart fire" ". At the same time, the true qi of the liver meridian ascends and is injected into the lung meridian, and the true qi of the spleen meridian ascends and is injected into the heart meridian. This is the so-called "qi of the liver and spleen should rise." The true energy of the three yang meridians of the hands also travels up to the head and face while inhaling, connecting with the three yang meridians of the feet, so there is a saying that "the three yangs flourish on the face". ?
When exhaling, the two flanks close inward and downward, the diaphragm rises, the chest cavity shrinks, and the abdominal cavity expands relatively, so the true Qi of the chest cavity is under pressure, that is, it travels down the Ren meridian and enters the lower abdomen (Dantian) to form " The heart and kidneys intersect to replenish life fire." This is an important part of the Qi movement method. At the same time, the true energy of the three yin meridians of the hand moves from the chest to the fingers, connecting with the three yang meridians of the hand. The true energy of the three yang meridians of the foot runs from the head to the feet and is connected with the three yin meridians of the foot. This constitutes the great circulation of menstrual energy. ?
Practice the five-step movement of Zhenqi to a certain extent. After the Du channel is unobstructed, exhale the Zhenqi down along the Ren channel into the Dantian, and inhale the Qi from the Du channel up to Baihui for a small amount. cycle. The most important thing in the five-step practice of Zhenqi movement is to achieve the purpose of communication between supervisors and supervisors.
Breathing is the driving force for the movement of Qi. To practice the five steps of Qi movement, you must start with adjusting your breathing. Originally physiological and natural breathing, without artificial adjustments, it can ensure normal physiological activities and maintain life. After birth, the acquired lifestyle replaces the innate lifestyle, coupled with various losses and disorders in adulthood, resulting in insufficient Qi, blocked meridians, premature aging, and disease. Therefore, breath regulation must be used to cultivate Qi, penetrate the meridians, and restore innate physiological functions. ?
Throughout a person's life, from the first exhalation to the last time he can no longer exhale, breathing is controlled by the coordinated action of atmospheric pressure and intrapulmonary pressure to maintain rhythmic activity. Based on the principle that intrapulmonary pressure is negative than atmospheric pressure, it is natural to inhale. In order to meet all the requirements for the movement of Qi, you must pay attention to exhalation when adjusting your breath. Pay attention to exhalation in order to discharge more turbid air. The lungs will be empty and the intrapulmonary pressure will be reduced, which facilitates the input of atmospheric air, is conducive to expelling the old and absorbing the new, and allows good gas exchange. This is still natural breathing. This is the case of external breathing. What's more important is that breathing exercises promote internal respiration, causing the true energy to circulate through the meridians, which plays a comprehensive regulatory role in human physiology. If you pay attention to the training of exhalation exercises for a long time, you can follow the laws of nature and achieve great results. This is the only way to gain the righteousness of heaven and earth. As long as you strengthen the physiological activity of exhalation, you can gradually reduce the heart fire, invigorate the spleen yang, absorb energy, metabolize energy, cultivate true qi in the lower Dantian, accumulate qi to clear the barriers, return essence to the brain, return to basics, and return The innate physiological mechanism is what later generations call the "Golden Elixir Avenue".
After practicing the five steps of Qi movement to a certain extent, the breath will be slight, if there is no breath, as if the external breathing has stopped, and you will only feel that the Dantian is opening and closing, communicating with Rendu, just like the spring breeze bringing warmth to the flowers. Comfortable feeling when opening. This is similar to the way a fetus has no external respiration, only strong innate internal respiration, and lives naturally and comfortably in the mother's womb. The body returns from decline to strength, full of vitality and vitality.
