TECHNIQUES FOR THE HEALTH OF THE BODY AND THE MIND: QI GONG THERAPEUTIC

the three rules of body, mind and breath
The regulation of Xin Mente-Cuore/Tiao


Adjust the Heart means to regulate the mind, to "reach the state of tranquility "/ rujing; only when the energy of the Heart is on the mind becomes quiet and you can enter the state of calm, a shift occurs from the 'thinking space' than the 'feel'.
The adjustment of the mind-heart-tiao xin
in qigong movement comes from within: it is the stillness of the heart that allows you to perform harmonic movements - and regular-rounded, and have a slow breathing, deep and long.
One way to tell the Chinese, very effective, puts it this way: "a state of calm is equivalent to one hundred movements " 'the hundred movements' are energy, which presides over the activities and functional transformation taking place within the body and movements of physical fitness.
In various ways, Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism have highlighted the importance of the practice of 'adjustment of the Heart'.
In Taoism it comes to 'forge a Heart / xin lian'.
In Buddhism we speak of 'make your heart clear, open, clean / ning xin 'and' Empty Heart / Xu Xin '.
In Confucianism we speak of 'true heart, proper / zhen xi, and' The heart is seen / jian xi ' 1. It must 'see' the heart in every action or event outside of a person.
the heart of every man must be in harmony both inside and outside.

The adjustment of the Heart leads this body, which is the abode of the mind and spirit to the state of centeredness and calm.
If the concern of the mind is extinguished, the spirit can exist, and conversely, if the mind is present (with thoughts and emotions), the spirit can not exist.
If the heart is steadfast and firm, the spirit can gather, if the heart is unstable, the spirit can not collect. And if the spirit is concentrated, the energy is cohesive and flows in the meridians without getting lost.
To summarize the state of no-mind is calm the heart, the spirit manifests itself as conscious presence and plenty of energy flowing throughout the body. This was also the essence of peace is preserved.
What are the obstacles to be overcome to reach the state of rest?
E 'first major weed the so-called' six roots', also known as' six bandits' because they steal peace. They
cause the so-called 'six polveri'che obscure the clarity of mind. The 'six roots' are represented by the mind (mental activity made of thoughts and emotions) and the five sense organs (sight, smell, hearing, taste and touch). Mental and sensory organs are the six ways of understanding the manifest world.
Chinese medicine compares the mind is not governed the behavior of the monkey.
tirelessly Like a monkey jumps from branch to branch, so the mind is always agitated and continues to change direction and idea
The mind is by its very nature activities, tension, confusion, is in fact an unstoppable process of individual thoughts that happen so fast that it can not distinguish the range between one and another. And the mind is not only thought, emotions, and it includes all the schemes reactive mind - emotions that are reflected in the body, creating visceral and muscular tensions, if they remain at a level that repressed unconscious.
more we identify with our thoughts (preferences, dislikes, opinions, evaluations, desires, fears, pain), the stronger its emotional charge and its harmful consequences if its content remains unconscious level. All this crowding of thoughts, desires, emotions creates an overload of energy, and can not be used it is damaging because it tends to knot or lost in a thousand streams.
This incessant mental noise intrudes between us and our being, between us and the next, between us and nature, and prevents us from finding the state of inner peace necessary to get in touch with the existence (Dao, God).
This happens because the mind has become our master, and takes its power by creating the illusion that we are the mind. We are fully identified with our mind and incapable of discipline to use it, when needed, as a tool.
The ego-mind (with all its desires, fears, pleasures and pains, insecurities and dependencies) is our false self and prevents us from get in touch with the true self that is waiting to be re-experienced within us as the true nature, our essence.
How to escape the control of the mind? 2
The beginning of freedom occurs when we bring our awareness inward and turn the focus of the present moment.
We are intensely and totally absorbed by what is happening right now within us: it creates an interval in which no mind is highly alert and aware but you are not thinking.
When these intervals there is a certain stillness and peace interiors.
With practice, the sense of peace and tranquility deepens.


Tracing the energy of the sense organs to the inside.
Our senses - sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch - are normally used to put the person in contact with the outside world.
The light illuminates the meaning of what is outside us and that's where we learn to seek what we need to meet the needs of our bodies (food, warmth, colors, sounds, smells), and our mind (pleasure, desire , feelings). But the awareness of the senses that the vehicle is oriented towards the outside world can flowing inwards, when the energy of the five senses reverse direction. In the Taoist texts, there is an invitation to feel the result of this reversal of direction of energy of the five senses.
Paraphrasing these texts we can describe this process as follows.
ears and hearing are related to the kidneys. It should be 'close your ears' (not hear): If the kidney energy is not dispersed, it returns to dantian 3.
eyes and vision depend on the liver.
must turn our gaze inward (lowering his eyelids). If the eyes, ambassadors of the spirit do not see, the energy of the liver is not dispersed, and it returns to dantian.
mouth and taste depend on the Spleen. Do not pay attention to flavors and the energy of the spleen returns to dantian.
nose and smell depend on the lung. Do not pay attention to the smells and the energy returns to the Lung dantian.
The sense of touch depends on the heart / mind that recognizes and organizes external sensory stimuli. Pay no attention to the tactile sensations of the Heart back to energy dantian.
The word belongs to the Heart.
not talk, if not necessary.
Being silent is tantamount to conserve energy is not dispersing out with words.
When, therefore, all the sensory orifices of the head are 'closed' awareness in and remains the focus shifts from the material world to the subtle world and activate a new sensory organ, the eye of heaven '(otherwise known as' third eye' or dantian more) , able to see and feel the energy as it is within the body.
Only turning the light of awareness inside to light up the 'true reality' of 'True Heart' and cut the 'six roots'. When the heart is pure and clear back to the true knowledge you can access and cut the roots of that false.
How to proceed in practice?
Finding your center of stability by focusing on one point, for example, one of the three dantian and maintain it. It may happen that there is no interference, that is to say that we can think of something. The fact of being aware of our presence and indicates the possibility of bringing awareness to dantian. So do not be afraid to arrive a thought, but not to notice ..
Almost inadvertently, at the very moment when the whole awareness is turned inwards and in the present case the adjustment of the Heart, and the breath of it will be a natural consequence.

Simple and effective techniques to achieve the peace of the Heart are:
lower eyelids and turn our gaze inward towards 'heavenly eye' (dantian higher)
Place the tongue to the upper palate behind the incisors
Place your thumb on the point PC8/laogong and close your hands into fists
Display the image of the lotus flower that blooms in the Heart.


Notes 1. There are five 'false heart' (the desire-wealth, fame, power, pleasure, etc. .-; resentment, sloth, pride, distrust) that hurt and confuse 'the heart truth'. We live in cares why 'five false Hearts' hide the 'real heart' which is the original heart.
2. If is not you the boss, you increasingly removed from the house. If, however, will be, then you will begin your return to the original source. If you are not the master, the energy moves away from you in the direction of things, people, power, prestige, fame. The energy will continue to leave more and more toward the periphery. Once you master the other hand, the energy begins his journey back home. If you are the master, the mind will follow you like a shadow. If you're not, you should follow the mind like a shadow. Mind means energy that comes out, where meditation is energy that enters it is the same energy, only the direction is different. " Bhagwan Shree Raineesh. 'Research. Talks on the Ten Bulls of Zen '
3. The dantian are centers of subtle energy conversion: the lower one is located in the cord, the median is located in the chest and the upper one is located in the space between the two eyebrows.
