    "Great movements are not as efficient as small movements. Small movements are not as efficient as stillness. Stillness is the mother of eternal movement" In quietness you are like a maiden In motion you are like a dragon. The mountains seem to fly when you apply your mind, The seas overflow when you apply your power. Master Wang Xian Zhai

    Can we set up some mutual practice times that are in relative location on the grid to each other? i.e. lets follow the shapes of the sounds we're hearing. You know who you are. Face to Face Back to Back Side to Side

    The Long Breathing patterns that have been shared with me lengthen the cycle breath cycle including the transition points of change between inhale and exhale. At these extreme points of inhalation turning to exhalation or exhalation turning to inhalation, a certain suspension point is experienced and dialated but I would be hesitant to describe this breathing pattern as a "holding" the breath... rather another "space" opens up as your metabolism slows down and the mind operates on a lower/higher level. What you guys are describing sounds like holding your breath is the bathtub *I Heart Huckabees* Urban Sensory Depreviation Guerrilla Style.

    No offense but you're twiddling your naval all day and wonder why it feels funny? sheesh Get into a regular training routine and actually put to work what your "working" on. You cant change the air fuel mixture, or better yet the carburator to a super charger and wonder why your burning off the tires at every intersection while on the way to 7-11 to pick up a slurpee and a hustler. You gotta have a track or circuit to drive your car. Warmups Stretches Jogging or other Cardio (even jump rope or shadow box) Form Work Partner Work Standing (Gung)

  19. absolute direct work with fear

    A good way to get injured. Take care, you only have one of yourself. Face fear when it is in front of you, being illusionary in nature, seeking it out will cause trouble, because of the distorted perception you have of that fear. Waiting for the right moment to conquer it by degrees is safe and permanent.
