ChiDragon Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) @Cobie You have been always a great help. Thanks! I had forgotten all about this already. From my four decades of Taiji practice, that is exactly what I have discovered through modern science before I found this testimony. Indeed, modern science speaks for itself. Tao always prevail. Let nature take its course! Edited November 30, 2022 by ChiDragon 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChiDragon Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) 28 minutes ago, Cobie said: 吐(tu) is to breathe with the abdomen fully contracted inward. 吶(na) is to breathe with the abdomen fully expanded outward. Let me rephrase that. 28 minutes ago, Cobie said: 吐(tu) is to exhale with the abdomen fully contracted inward. 納(na) is to inhale with the abdomen fully expanded outward. This the normal way for abdominal breathing. For reverse abdominal breathing is the opposite. 吐(tu) is to inhale with the abdomen fully contracted inward. 納(na) is to exhale with the abdomen fully expanded outward. Note: Sorry, I was confused about the two characters. Please correct the 吶(na) character to 納(na); to absorb. Edited November 30, 2022 by ChiDragon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
