Self-Improvement Tips/Exercises

Accumulation and Reinvigoration:

Accumulation:
Breathe in through your diaphragm while relaxing your glutes to draw the world energy in.

Then contract your glutes, holding the breath for a few seconds, to let the energy settle in before breathing out while relaxing your whole body.

Reinvigoration:
It is possible to modify the Accumulation breathing technique by removing the breath holding step. That way, the world energy will just flow in and out of your body, energizing you like a good night's sleep.

Try doing at least 20 breathing cycles of each (Accumulation and Reinvigoration) every day.


Meditation:

Sit cross-legged, close your eyes, touch the thumbs and index fingers on each hand, touch the roof of your mouth with your tongue. Do the abdominal breathing. Pay attention to the air entering and leaving your nostrils or to the movement of your diaphragn. Avoid thinking in words.


Exercise to improve the circulation of Qi:

This is a spinal stretch, so to speak.
A dynamic stretch involving breath control.
While standing, first inhale, then, exhaling, turn to the left and back (trunk rotation), both on the same exhale. Then inhale and, exhaling, turn to the right and back, both on the same exhale.

Repeat this process several times.


Incredible Rest:

This involves resting standing up and breathing only through your nose after intense or moderate exercise.
It helps reduce rest time, increase breathability, improve lactic acid metabolism and improve endurance.


Exercise to strengthen your legs and kick higher:

Stand with your feet parallel and your legs spread almost as wide as you can, but still comfortably. Keep your spine straight, arms at your sides.
Stay in this position for 10 minutes or more.
This strengthens your legs and also stretches them, helping you kick higher in combat sports.
