This pandemic for me has been specializing in neigong from each the Jinshan Pai (Gold mountain sect) and Longmen Pai (Dragon Gate sect) traditions. Jin Shin Pai comes from Yang Chengfu’s and Yang Jianhou’s pupil and disciple Zhang Qilin. He discovered some neigong from Yang household and in addition studied within the Jin Shan Pai custom.
One frequent space of Neigong for each Taijiquan and Neigong are:
- Qi fundamental: Yang qi strikes upward, and Yin qi strikes downward. Jin shan pai acknowledges women and men are totally different. In males the Qi goes up the Du channel, and down the Ren. Girls are reverse, up Ren and down Du channel. One clarification is obvious when lifeless physique is floating down a river. Yin is heavy and yang is lighter. a person physique tends to drift face down and lady physique will float face up when lifeless. The Taoist understood this.
- Du Na and Hu Xi All the time begins with exhale, to get the whole evacuation of stale air first. The chest stays quiet.
- Key: Yi: thoughts leads Qi, qi leads physique. Physique is final. Neigong is a strengthening of thoughts and Qi, objective shouldn’t be the physique. We solely use physique to assist qi and thoughts.
- Physique positions: 4 Physique positions: for each Taiji and Neigong. 2 are straight, and a couple of are curved.
- 1. Xu ling Ding Jin- straightening, liberating of the neck, a push up in opposition to downward stress, use some inside power to elevate. This helps Qi go down.
- 2. Chen Jian Zhui Zhou: curve. Shoulders down Elbows sink and drop down. A sinking down from a heavy buoyancy.
- 3. Han Xiong Be Bei. curve. Sink inward/curve/spherical, chest/plexus: launch rigidity, like loosening a drum head rigidity. Cupping of again between shoulder blades. “Tiger Again” so entrance of physique sucks barely in/whereas again of physique “jiajie” curve out/rounded. Again puffs out and fills with Qi is rounded.
- 4. Tune Yao Zuo Kua: straightening. Chill out, fleshy a part of decrease again, sit within the hips. Sitting is like in a chair straight, then loosen up decrease again (final three vertebrae L3,L4,L5) in direction of the again of the chair, this opens ming males. Shen guan Ding: move by to prime of head. That is much like the primary: within the 1st we elevate head and qi goes down, on this we decrease again and Qi goes UP to the highest. so #1 is a sinking of qi down, and #4. is a Qi to go to prime. Acknowledge this within the respiratory because the exhale helps qi go up, and Inhale helps qi go down.
