Good job. Traditional Tai Chi we end with some meditations. So let us take it down to the floor. So, relax right on down. Welcome back, easing in. Setting cross-legged, if this is uncomfortable for you can brace with your back against the wall or sit in a chair if you would like. But notice I am relaxed with my palms facing down. It is a little different in most meditation. In Tai Chi we do what it is called an energy return or the energy coming from the palms of our hands, we will go right on back into the knee joints, rejuvenating all of the joints, knees, everything throughout the body.
So, sitting and relaxed stillness close your eyes and just allow your body to move slowly side to side. Very relaxed. Okay, so feeling the Chi energy in a life force in a seated position as well does not have to be only felt standing. I want you to take this concept with you through out your day. That way you reduce stress through out the day. But it is just feeling the body moving from side to side, forward, back, reminding yourself of the Brazilians saved your body, torso, waist, and energy return through the hands. Good! Easing out. Sitting tall again you can keep your eyes closed or if you would like open your eyes and focused in about 45 degree angle in front of you. Breathings easy on a standard, take notice if you are seating up stiffly, try to relax, you can keep the extended Brazilian sit that also be sitting up straight in a relaxed fashion. Hands and arms relaxed, energy returned to the palms.
Focusing your mind just below the naval in around the done ti yen. Imagine and feel a bubbling well spring of warmth and activity. Chi energy in life force gently moving through the body, through the legs feet, up to the hips torso, arms, hand, and fingers returning down to the knees, also feeling it up into the neck, and head, and face. Closing your eyes, relaxing the torso forward, if it is comfortable for you to take your arms forward that is fine. Another version is to take your hands behind you. Like I am doing in here, that gives you some nice support as you ease forward. Relaxing to the lower back, breathing, again if you are feeling alive resilient, completely relax from your PM workout. Slowly rounding back count to three, two, seating tall, one, easing back to the palms of the hands.
Then you have the elbows and gently lifting the sternum them up toward the sky and arching to the back, opening through the heart. Relaxing and releasing tension from the front side of your body, maintaining center, but it is slowly coming up, open eyes. Great, hope you feel good. Chi rise path at least resistance, easing into it, no tension on the joints, you are standing up. Ah, that was nice. Good! Settling in. Traditional Tai Chi closing, right fist and the left open palm, right under the left, left under the right, opening out, and relaxing down, beautiful, gentle bow, stepping back on your left foot, followed by the right, excellent job. Good! You can practice this PM Tai Chi postures anytime to release energy and give you an over all stance of relaxed well being. Thank you very much.
