Get Slow! 🫠
Sometimes we just need to slow down.
It helps us to be more aware, more present.
We constantly hear "live in the moment" or "be more present", because for whatever reason we have a tendency to rush through life, almost as if we're trying to fast forward at times (until we end up trying to rewind).
So slowing down in general allows us to "stop and smell the roses" so to speak.
With Tai Chi specifically, some people tend to think of the end posture as the movement, but the movement is every single point along the way. It's hard to pay attention or notice each of those points at full speed.
If you have 2 points on a graph and connect those dots, you could draw any kind of line in between. But with a 3rd point, you have a better idea of what the line is supposed to look like. And more so with a 4th point and so on.
Just standing still (Wuji / Zhan Zhuang) really put a lot of things into perspective for me in regards to alignment and all of the things going on internally at a given time.
Maybe if we move in slow motion, time might too...
It could make for a good science experiment?! 😎
