Qigong
A more general Blog about Qigong, and associated practises in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Some subtle reflections on the flow state accessed through slow mindful movements and awareness of breathing in the art of Qigong, as we go deeper into our practise and journeys:-
Truest Life
It’s in the small moments we find life, the ones that often catch us by surprise, and largely go unnoticed despite their repeatedly calling our name, not the grand gestures or life events, but the subtlest tiny everyday small ones;
A daisy gently pushing up from between the cracks on a busy pavement, unseen, neglected, but oh so here; a spiders web glistening in the autumn morning dew, every tiny thread contributing to the entirety of its structure; the gentle wave of distant bells gliding on the breeze along the flood plain meadow upstream through the evening river valley.
With increased awareness, the small unnoticed things will become stage front and no longer in the bleachers. A joyful existence will emerge from the shadows of a dull mediocrity and distractions of a busy world thats become like a small child vying for our every attention.
When life gets too busy, life itself passes us by, so quickly. In these brief moments we steal back, awareness riding on each slow breath, and we truly know life beyond the superficial ways that we are conditioned to believe is living, but to the most part is slumber.
Entering flow state through however we access it (Qigong is pretty damn good here !) is a simple returning to that which we always knew, what every baby human, calf or deer knows, sees.
A world beyond, before, the deceptions and constructions of the cunning creations of the conceptual mind took control. Beyond incessant thought, outside of inner narrative and hedonic judgemental tone, escalating into a multitude of subsequent emotions.
Relax into it with no struggle, free from effort and meet it with no agendas, wu wei, doing-non doing, no forcing, simply being. Just allowing.
Simply be still and know.
Peace Love and Qigong
