If you have been around Tai Chi for a while, you may have heard Peng, JI Lu, on the four primary energy of Tai Chi - and a. This more "concrete" to make my students instead of using the obscure Chinese phrases I call typically these, the four elements of air, fire, water and Earth. But no matter what you call you any energy seen the thought of and as a kind of "Chi response" seen on any given situation.
The objective of the Tai Chi Chi development is "balance your ability and skill in the four elements", so that you can mix and match the corresponding elements required, are for every situation where you.Learn to "intuitive" see, read, and then certain elements emphasize the sense of a situation and weaken others so that you achieve your goals formats.this newly developed "see, read, and to feel" skills come across not intellectual analysis, but a faster by bypassing the slower, logical mind, more whole-body-spirit and approach developed.
If we start to explore first of the four elements, most of us find that we tend to favor one or two items and "Application", especially in stressful situations.In our daily lives, many of us prefer one or two items/intentions, sometimes to the point of no other Elemente.Wir all know the "hotheads" (fire types), "Airheads" never to stay always angry or aggressive can concentrate or practicable, "stuck in-the mud"-Earth types, the change and growth to resist and "Wishy-washy" water types, all to avoid conflict or passive-aggressive respond in most situations.We can see how these types of people in a limited almost preprogrammed mode to respond to stressful situations.
One of the first "insights" is the Chi development training creates an understanding of our own limited Antworten.Was we now can easily see in others, we start this insight the US itself to sehen.Vor we would swear that we are not like these other people - that we free-, acting freely and free Feeling.Nach of this insight of questions though, many think, how you your own conditioned responses may have been so blind.
Explore your Chi answers
Here is a simple "thoughts" experiment, that can help you explore your own use of the four Chi elements in everyday life.
Let's say an evening after work and you get caught in the traffic jam are driving home. The local Freeway is full of bumper cars full of people like you try to come home after work.Here are four "Replies" you could take in this situation, as you try to get home safely.
You try, select the least crowded track and change lanes frequently but surely. Or you try to leave and find a safer alternative route home with less traffic.You attempting "Your part" around smoothly for all traffic flowing to halten.Sie break other in merge can and attempt to fill the gaps in the market, so that others behind you not to brake. Work to ensure that everyone gets the home safely.You to recognize there is nothing you can about the jam and the safest way is to just out.Before who drive on the highway know that it occurred to congestion around every day. But went this way because it the fastest, safest and most direct way to home, also with the jam.So don ' t mind the jam, because you know you're getting still home safe and directly.Read you about these four answers, and questions, do one of those answers seem "better" than the rest?There are all answers that would regularly choose? is there any replies that almost never would?
If you guessed, each represents the four above of one of the four elements.For many people one or two of the above seem more attractive than the other.These answers will feel more "right" or "better" or something you typically select, would do.Some of the other answers but may feel more "wrong" or "bad" or just would never do.
The problem is not whether one of these responses actually better than that is. Finally each of the four answers stresses other security and one of the four could help us, the primary issue is safe at the destination ankommen.stattdessen: how easily you choose one or two of the others could?
If you simply select it or two with the other found you may examine whether in other situations tend to the elements by these responses shown to bevorzugen.Wenn a standardized see how you favor that water response (Earth, air or fire) in stressful situations more often than not, may want to explore the limitations imposed by favor this something.
If prompted to select the "best" response in the above traffic jam situation it is difficult, however, find answer about the others to choose? have seen this and disadvantages of each of the answers? was your first thought that it "would depend on what is different", before you could choose one of these responses? if it does, you can be on the way to the development of skills in all four elements and not just in your "preference" items.
