There are many schools of Yang's Tai Chi, among which Wang Yongquan's inheritance has the phenomenon of Tai Chi Qigong in the stage of refining and refining qi, which is the same as the volley energy in Chen's inheritance, which is becoming more and more intense. Tai Chi is divided into three stages: pushing, kneading, and scattering, and kung fu is also not allowed to be transgressed. It truly combines the essence and spirit with the transformation of the body and mind, from restoring yang energy to irrigating the whole body as if in water, and then to the internal energy. We see Yang Chengfu every time he practices boxing and pushing, kung fu gathering, steady and dignified, waist and hip calm, limbs are loose, heavy, soft elastic, loose bubbles, bulging, the whole body contains the chest and back, the spirit is hidden, and the hand is thrilling, obviously, Taijiquan is not an illusory state of consciousness, but an automatic gathering of spirit.
1. The plate shelf of the Tai Chi push hand
The cultivation of Taijiquan pushes hands from the plate shelf, and there is still a certain combination of rigidity and softness, four or two thousand catties, including the chest and back. When it comes to Da Loose and Soft, this is from consolidating the essence and gathering yang to refining and refining the qi, because after the essence from the spine completes the impact on the big vertebral acupoint, it does not run according to the trajectory of Xiao Zhoutian, because Tai Chi needs to fully loosen the muscles and bones, and gather the essence, and Chinese kung fu is to concentrate and pay a high degree of self-attention - to see one's own control and cognitive transformation. Therefore, after the essence qi hits the big vertebral point for the first time, it will not rush to the jade pillow point without gathering the strength of the body's muscles and bones, and the heavy building of the neck has not yet had the strength to stand upright, and it is lying on the chest - this is the current common mobile phone disease - the human spine is connected by vertebrae of different segments, including the cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, sacral spine, and caudal vertebrae. There are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 1 sacral vertebrae, and 1 caudal vertebrae.
Through the walking and movement of Tai Chi, the essence improves the functions of the spine such as weight-bearing, shock absorption, protection and movement. The disc shelf is done with the spine and limbs. Obviously, this stage is a tough one. This frame of the bridge horse, we are used to calling it the five bows, and the push hand is a good method.
2. The essence and spirit of Tai Chi pushers
At this point, Tai Chi is still more martial arts and more foreign. However, many people have given up on these basic skills, especially the elderly, and only have a little power in the slow run. Therefore, the old people are unable to produce the internal force cultivation of concentrating on the yang ascension. Therefore, the essence cannot be gathered, and it is discharged in the front. - Yang energy cannot be gathered, and essence energy can only be cycled once a month to ascend to the large vertebral points. There are only a few days a month that can be put on the shelf, and a punch down is only an understatement. Only after the completion of the three-month gathering, the shelf will be moved to the door to loosen the waist and hips, at this time the shelf sinks, the essence enters the collarbone and thoracic vertebrae from the large vertebral points, and the chest and heart begin to appear warm—this is the first extreme warm qi sensation.
3. The spine is soft, the body is soft, the plate shelf shows looseness, and the waist and hips begin to be soft in the real sense. In this realm, the big loose and the big soft, Yang Chengfu Taijiquan began to open and close, increasing the gathering and transformation of internal strength. However, the disciples under his name began to enter the door separately, Dong Yingjie insisted on the opening and closing of the shelf, Li Yaxuan opened the loose cotton with needles, and Zheng Manqing took advantage of the situation in the pine and followed up the waist and crotch. Niu Chunming is full of spirit, and his fists are like eight poles.
4. Alchemy and qi are not the ultimate goal, and they cannot indulge in it and be powerless to extricate themselves. Therefore, the big frame is the bigger shelf, and the three circles are each with a virtual collection, Li Yaxuan said: calm and comfortable, put the breath to practice comfortably, don't be full of energy, full of spirit, just relax and calm down the body and mind, if it is full of energy; The face is full of energy, this is the form of practicing external martial arts. People who practice Tai Chi seem to be just plain, which is right, if their faces are full of vigor and energy, this is wrong. ——After kung fu has a foundation, it is necessary to focus on the spirit and spirit.
Li Yaxuan said that we should work the Tibetan spirit and nourish qi, and it is not appropriate to focus on the physical body, and some people practice Taijiquan like other martial arts, get some tricks, and think of some usage, which is a big mistake, because those who practice Taijiquan are mixed up in their chests, are inactive, and are calm, and cannot focus on the role of a certain hand and one momentum. If you think about the role of each hand and each potential, then the intention is uneven, and the fist will never be started, will not be found, the fist will not be used, the inspiration is not, and when it is used in the future, you will not be able to listen to it, and you will not be able to win.

5. Refining and refining gas began to transform from the plate shelf to the virtual collar top strength, and pulled up the large vertebral points of the neck:
Li Yaxuan said: Every practice must be up to the head, pull up the back, down the shoulders, hang down the elbows, the whole body is satisfied, the five fingers through the meaning, the momentum is full of cloth, after a long time, you can lay the foundation. The second step is to pay attention to the relaxation and softening of the joints around the body, whether it is the waist and knees, shoulders and elbows, or even knuckles and wrist joints. Each section of the spine must be slowly loosened with the power of thought, this step is not easy to do, but if the days go by, with the periodic consolidation of essence, according to my experience, the essence and spirit are slowly instilled, it is absolutely possible.
It is done, that is, when practicing, the qi should be agitated, the spirit should be introverted, and the comfortable and smooth work hard, such as the endless momentum of the surging water of the Yangtze River, the best practice method is to practice the spirit, the mind, the qi, the nothingness, and the muscles and muscles that cannot be rigid. Practicing the exercises with relaxation and composure can enrich my courage, and no matter what the circumstances, my heart is strong and strong, and no matter how vicious the opponent is, I will always have a way to subdue him. I have the strength to be calm, to be cold and fast, and to penetrate the inside, and I will definitely be able to subdue it and destroy it.
Li Yaxuan warned us: The theory of Taijiquan is profound, and the energy of life cannot understand its essence. To play Yang-style Taijiquan, it is necessary to maintain the pure style taught by Mr. Yang, and the pushing hands must have the taste of Mr. Yang's pushing hands, otherwise it will not be called Yang-style Taijiquan.
