Any impact of the objective world to our senses and have feelings. Many of us are familiar stimuli, in connection with them, we develop certain reactions: some stimuli we are pleased others, we try to avoid. They accompany us everywhere, providing information about the outside world and what is happening to us and around us. Unique exercises that combines movement and sensation isTaijiquan or simplyTaichi.
The first thing that makes dealing with Taichi - concentrates its focus on any object body. Most often, this is the point, which is just below the navel, about 2-3 stacked phalanges, the so-called "Center" or belly Tan Tien.
The next step, after dealing with localized their attention, is to achieve a state of relaxation. In many ancient traditions of one of the main object of attention and relaxation selected "Center" of the abdomen. And it is no coincidence. For example,on the Chinese system Tan Tien is the meeting point of all the channels (meridians) which circulates energy. And as the meridian system permeates all external and internal organs, the relaxation of the Tan tien reaches people at a time of relaxation of the body.
Since the Chinese system of values is far from Western European understanding of the world we take for example a clear option with vision, that is, from the visual analyzer. Moreover, that work with vision it is often an integral part of many health systems. And So,engaged fixes his attention on the eyes, and then achieves the effect of relaxation. What happens to the analyzer and the nervous system of our body at this point?
Firstly, as soon as the focus has shifted to the eye activated brain region responsible for the eyes and vision. This means that a large flow of energy, and with it the flow of blood rushes to your eyes. Current of fresh blood drives eye muscles, blood vessels, nerve endings.
Next comes a very important stage of relaxation. One way or another brain is instructed to relax the eyes. What does it mean for the relaxation of muscles and blood vessels? Currently rest relaxation required for perfusion as well as blood flow itself. Only in a relaxed body with relaxed blood vessels flowing freely. If the muscles are tense, blood supply, or not at all, or passes extremely slowly. Upon standing rest (20 seconds to several minutes) is a constant whole organ perfusion with fresh saturated with blood. Only this time the blood nourishes the body fully, reaching its most delicate capillaries, the most remote and challenging places, what happens in the body is extremely rare.
Active organ blood supply leads to greater sensitivity of receptors to a more subtle analysis of the signals coming from them and more precise coordination of movements. Thus, we can talk about improving as a result of lessonsTaijiquan.
During the sessions of tai chi is happening purposeful active saturation of the life-giving forces, thereby increasing their ability to live and vitality. And if you adopt a system of eastern outlook, it is possible to improve the condition of the whole organism.
