Playing free form push hands in the park on Sunday the two concepts that kept popping up were

1 - Listen

2 - Follow

 

Why is it that we always (at least at some point) want to go against the flow?

What is it in our legacy programming that triggers us to try to force something to happen?

There is no doubt that being being a leaf on the stream is easier, so why is it that we turn our heads upstream and swim against the current?

If you can answer that question, you'll be on the right path.

Quote of the Week

"Second is mindfulness of feelings, it is at this stage that we work with the chi or fine material energy. The chi is most easily perceived through feelings and this path of practice helps one to bypass the common pitfall of relying on imagination and visualization of the internal energy as this can quickly become a fabricated fantasy rather than a direct knowing of reality in the present."
