Part 8 Improving Heart Health Movement

 

 

    Possible health benefits: high blood pressure, heart disease, gastrointestinal system

    (digestive issues) and other chronic illnesses

 

    Possible causes of illness: This movement involves rising up and down, opening and closing, and blood circulation will follow the chi flow, therefore it will enhance the internal chi to flow upward, downward, internal, external and everywhere. It will then break through any barriers and let chi flow smoothly. Given the movement brings our chi flow to four directions to enhance the circulatory system, and in addition given we are practicing with a quiet and relaxed state of mind in fostering internal chi. As a result, it helps with supporting heart health, cultivating a gentle temperament and increasing blood flow, prevention of illness.
