This week, during a traditional Chinese medicine lecture organized by the company, a colleague asked about various matters related to standing practice. Since Professor has recently been studying standing practice, he happened to give a rough answer. As I have some free time today, I have organized it properly for your reference.
Over the past half year, I have basically stopped smoking, which can count as an initial success in quitting. I also began consistently practicing the foundational standing practice of internal Xingyi boxing and have gained a few small insights, so I wanted to record them for future reference when my boxing improves. While writing, I found there was far too much content, so I will split it into separate articles.
Shanghai has seen a lot of wind and rain lately, with unusually erratic temperatures. It often rains at night, and as the temperature drops sharply, the “dark wind and drifting rain slip into the cold window” without one noticing. So, quite unintentionally, the Professor had an unexpected experience of “disability.”
