Do you lack peace of mind and equanimity? With the following exercises, you can easily cope with this. After all, balance means balance between stress and rest. Only when activity and rest are correctly distributed, you will always be calm and cheerful. Breathing and physical exercises will help you balance yourself and achieve a constant influx of new forces.
To use your inner strength, it is recommended to perform exercises from Pilates, tai chi and chigong-o. The result of these exercises will be an intensive development of the body, the ability to completely relax, equanimity and the influx of new forces. Classes chigong-o and tai-chi not only improve metabolism and restore strength, but also contribute to clarity of thinking. According to both concepts, movement and peace are related in the same way as Yin and Yang, one complements the other, and together they give life-force, or Qi.
Each movement in the exercise is accompanied by an inspiration or exhalation that sets the rhythm and tempo. It is very important to perform exercises slowly and concentrated, to breathe deeply and intensively. The air should be inhaled by the chest and then let it in the abdomen, while exhaling - on the contrary.
It is best to practice on the street or at the open window. The influx of oxygen will enhance the metabolism, which, in turn, will allow energy to flow freely in the body, giving you more and more energy!
The inner rod gives Pilates. Pilates exercises are designed for intensive development of the center of the body and anatomically correct posture. All exercises stabilize the spine and stimulate the energy current in the body. The main thing for the implementation of the principle of pilates is the work of the abdominal muscles: only with the tension of the abdomen and the active work of the energy center will the exercises be performed correctly.
To achieve this condition, tighten the navel. Due to this, the muscles of the lower abdomen and the bottom of the pelvis will be slightly tense. Only a minimum stress is required to perform exercises with the best posture and the established tension of the muscles of the trunk.
In addition, when performing pilates, great importance is attached to the reference breathing. Firstly, they breathe only with the thorax, so as not to disturb the tension of the abdomen. Secondly, the rhythm of breathing should determine the rhythm of movements and be as measured and controlled as possible.
It is also very important that the muscles of the upper abdomen are active all the time. To do this, you should try to close the edge arches. This is done in the following way: when exhaling, the ribs arc slowly move one to the other and for the duration of the whole series of exercises to keep this stress, keeping the rib arches in soft contact with each other.
This is a simple and effective exercise from chigongo. You can always fulfill it if you feel the need to fill the lost forces. If you want, imagine that the energy and strength that you are acquiring is colored in a certain color. The orange - the color of creative vital energy that will give you harmony is good. You can imagine that right in front of you, at the bottom of the abdomen, there is an orange ball and this paint diverges throughout the body.

Then move your hands away from your abdomen for about 30 to 40 centimeters, without taking your fingertips from each other. Feel the warmth and energy between your hands and stomach.
4. Direct this energy into the abdomen and throughout the body. Feel how it slowly spreads first along the trunk, then on the hands and feet. Stay in this position for a period of at least ten deep breaths and exhalations. Then gently spread the arms, relax the limbs, sit down or lie down.

Even if the self-confidence of some people seems to be an inborn trait, one way or another it requires some work on oneself. Such people are able to recognize their own mistakes, they know their strengths and weaknesses and have learned to feel themselves.
If you know exactly what you want, then you can clearly express your thoughts. An extra helping of confidence will help you with this. Training, strengthening the chest and back, as well as exercises that develop the muscles of the arms and shoulders, will give a new impetus to your ability to express your interests.
Each muscle in the body has its own purpose, not only physical, but also mental. Most of the eastern schools come from this statement. But both in America and Europe are gradually beginning to recognize that the physical, mental and emotional state of a person are closely related. So, each muscle is attributed a certain quality and influence on personality. For example, people with developed musculature of the breast are less likely to be dull, timid and pessimistic.
Taoism teaches that a developed chest gives peace and a sense of security. In turn, well-developed muscles of the legs and buttocks allow one to feel freer in everyday life and, from the point of view of psychology, they speak of stability, the ability to stand firmly on their feet. A strong stomach makes possible quick and unexpected movements, but its excessively developed musculature can harm internal organs, therefore, according to Taoism, the stomach should not only be well developed, but also flexible.
Exercise, development of muscles and psyche affect each other mutually: by exercising, you develop muscles and improve posture, and this, in turn, affects the psyche. The one who confidently goes through life can not have a bad posture.
Because it is easier to develop muscles than to change the already established way of thinking, gymnastics gives a wonderful opportunity, training muscles, influence the spirit and thus gain a positive outlook on things and create an atmosphere of confidence around you. Believe it or not, it works. The musculature changes - the human psyche also changes.
That is, from gymnastics the body wins repeatedly - the developed musculature of the breast acts from the inside. Strong shoulders and back allow you to withstand heavy loads in life situations. He who has a straight posture, who firmly stands with both feet on the ground, has greater persistence in disputes. A well-trained center of the trunk not only makes a person stronger and more enduring, but also lays the foundation for confident behavior.
To support certain thoughts and desires will help the lessons of mudra. Precisely described movements of the fingers are aimed at stimulating the points of acupuncture and the energy centers of the body. Mudras, also called "finger yoga," can excite, soothe or help themselves to master themselves. Being engaged in mudras, it is very important to breathe calmly and evenly.
To achieve the best results, this or that position of the hands should be practiced several times a day and at the same time at least five breaths-exhalations should be retained. You can practice several wise a day, but not more than three different times and with a break of several hours between each exercise, if they affect differently( for example, exciting and soothing mudras).Be engaged persistently, it is better for several days or weeks.
