Disease risk management, self-care, reduction of negative drug interactions, falls and injury prevention, stress management, holistic health care, and mind/body medicine are a few examples of these innovations. An integral part of this evolution of health care has been the growing importance of various forms of exercise modalities originating from Asia, including Qi Gong and Tai Chi. Qi Gong and Tai Chi are practices involving movement and meditation based on ancient Chinese philosophies that are purported to promote mental and physical health, vitality, and longevity. Refined in Asia for hundreds of years as a means of promoting health and functional well-being, these practices are also revered for the cultivation of social and spiritual values.1 In recent years, increasing attention in the West has focused on the benefits of Qi Gong and Tai Chi as forms of gentle physical activity for promoting health and well-being and as a moving meditation for stress management and disease risk reduction.

  • Rediscovering the Idea of Cultural Heritage and the Relationship with Nature: Four Schools of Essential Thought of the Ancient Han Chinese
    heritage Article Rediscovering the Idea of Cultural Heritage and the Relationship with Nature: Four Schools of Essential Thought of the Ancient Han Chinese Otto Chen * and Dawei Han Department of Civil Engineering, University of Bristol, Bristol BS8 1TR, UK * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-117-903-5428 Received: 12 June 2019; Accepted: 28 June 2019; Published: 3 July 2019 Abstract: After a long-standing debate of pluralism in heritage conservation, the global practice has just started to broaden its view from material to people and even to nature, leading to the potential of a more comprehensive understanding and harmony between these spheres. Notwithstanding that the shift from material to people and then to nature seemingly looks like the only path in the modern heritage conservation movement to achieve the foregoing goals, in fact, there exist some regional cultures that originally featured particular views on human–nature harmony. This paper hence highlights the regional difference in heritage with a focus on China of ancient times, which unfolds the particular perspective emphasising the unity of human and nature. With a case study of Huaqing Palace of the Tang Dynasty (618–907 CE), the research is expected to be the first attempt to rediscover that the four schools of thought, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism and I Ching, had jointly formed a “wisdom” system of the ancient Han Chinese in shaping the idea of cultural heritage, as well as the idea of heritage conservation, which were inherited by modern Chinese without knowing and recognising it. The paper, therefore, argues that without understanding and acknowledging the significance of the ancient Han Chinese’s particular view on nature and the universe formed by the four schools of thought behind the material, it is not likely to protect and promote comprehensively their heritage value, such that the importance of cultural diversity will be just rhetoric.

  • 崑崙纏手八卦kunlun Twining Hands Bagua Qigong
    崑崙纏手八卦 Kunlun Twining Hands Bagua Qigong In Kunlun Twining Hand Bagua we walk in a circle in order to gather the Qi from all eight directions which is Bagua (eight situation). When we walk, we cover clockwise and anti-clockwise which also connects with post natal and prenatal Qi and to stimulate our internal organs. Chinese Qigong discovered that each direction connects with an internal organ. This balances our Qi and gets rid of negative Qi. Other movements in the form connect particularly with the Liver, stimulating this area and releasing excess Liver Qi. This helps to make our liver soft and healthy. When we stand with our toes in and heels turned out in movement two, this shape represents the Chinese writing for the number eight (八). In movement eighteen, the Gua Palm develops Qi for transmission for healing ourselves. Below is a poem for this form. 口訣: 五行八卦深, 造詣在中心, 提供氣功素, 伸手打病氣. 任督兩脈動, 必須到心中, 心中往上升, 升到五行中.

Tai chi and qi gong are mind-body practices that have been used for thousands of years to promote health. Tai chi is one form of qi gong, but there are some differences in how they are practiced. Both target the energy of the body, traditionally called “qi” (pronounced “chee”), via focused breath and movements. Tai chi means “Grand Ultimate Fist” in Chinese, and it has origins in various martial arts practices. Author of the Harvard Medical School Guide to Tai Chi, Dr. Peter Wayne, describes tai chi practice in terms of “eight active ingredients:”1 1. Awareness: Tai chi practice develops focus and mindful awareness. 2. Intention: Tai chi practice actively uses images and visualization to enhance its health effects.

    FREE ORIENTAL MYTHOLOGY PDF Joseph Campbell | 576 pages | 01 Sep 2011 | Souvenir Press Ltd | 9780285640566 | English | London, United Kingdom Chinese mythology - Wikipedia Salvation churches and sects :. Confucian churches and sects:. Chinese mythology includes many varied myths from regional and Oriental Mythology traditions. Chinese mythology is far from monolithic, Oriental Mythology being an integrated system, even among just Han people. Chinese mythology is encountered in the traditions of Oriental Mythology classes of people, geographic regions, historical periods including the present, and from various ethnic groups. China is the home of many mythological traditions, including that of Han Chinese and their Oriental Mythology predecessors, as well as Tibetan mythologyTurkic Oriental MythologyKorean mythologyJapanese mythology and many others. However, the study of Chinese mythology tends to focus upon material in Chinese language. Much of the mythology involves exciting stories full of fantastic people and beings, the use of magical powers, often taking place in an exotic mythological place or time. Like many mythologies, Chinese Oriental Mythology has in the past been believed to be, at least in part, a factual recording of history. Many Oriental Mythology involve the creation and cosmology of the universe and its deities and inhabitants. Some mythology involves creation myths, the origin of things, people and culture. Some Oriental Mythology the origin of the Chinese state. Some myths present a chronology of prehistoric times, many of these involve a culture hero who taught people how to build houses, or cook, or write, or was the ancestor of an ethnic group or dynastic family. Mythology is intimately related to ritual. Many myths are oral associations with ritual acts, such as dances, ceremonies, and sacrifices.
