Som vďačná Združeniu
Mám 75 rokov. Tai Chi cvičím sedem rokov, ale pred rokom som musela prestať chodiť na skupiny, pretože sa starám o manžela, ktorý má stareckú demenciu. Vďaka rokom, počas ktorých som cvičila Tai Chi, môžem dnes povedať, že sa mám dosť dobre. Je to ťažké, ale pociťujem pokoj, porozumenie a viem ako mám prežívať aj […]
Čo mi chanting dáva?
Pred začiatkom chantingu sa ma zmocní pocit pokoja a rozvážnosti. Tento pocit upokojenia, ale zároveň sily, zostáva so mnou aj neskôr. Obyčajne chantujem na kolenách. Táto pozícia mi umožňuje uvoľniť bedrové kĺby (zápal bedrovej sliznice mi spôsobuje najväčšie bolesti pri sedení) a necítim bolesť. Cítim skvelé natiahnutie v chrbte, bruchu a v predných svaloch […]
Najlepšie v najhoršom
Počas prvých mesiacov samostatného cvičenia som cvičila veľmi vysoké don-yu. To mi umožnilo uvoľniť krčnú a krížovú chrbticu. Následkom dlhých hodín práce za počítačom boli tieto časti tela často zdrojom bolesti. Podarilo sa mi zaradiť 50 don-yu do môjho každodenného cvičenia, robia mi veľmi dobre. Odstraňujú väčšinu svalovej stuhnutosti, ktorá sa prejavuje pri rannom vstávaní. Po […]
Príležitosť v nepriazni
Nepriazeň tohto obdobia pandémie mi poskytla príležitosť uvedomiť si dôležitosť vedomej snahy a dôslednosti tak pri cvičení tai chi ako aj pri zoomoch a chantingu. To, čo si tam navzájom odovzdávame, sa dá zhrnúť slovami a pocitmi ako sú: dôslednosť, trpezlivosť, vedomie, spojenie, pozornosť, pozorovanie, nechať to ísť a mnohé iné. Keďže je to […]
Pandémia je príležitosť rásť
Posledných deväť mesiacov mi umožnilo fyzicky, emocionálne, mentálne a spirituálne rásť. marca bol vyhlásený zákaz vychádzania. Mám 12-ročného syna a 15-ročnú dcéru so špeciálnymi potrebami, bola to veľká skúsenosť. Vstávala som o 6-tej ráno, aby som si zacvičila Tai Chi. Toto bola pre mňa chvíľa pokoja, kým to nezistili deti, potom som sa prispôsobila a […]
Venujem čas zlepšeniu zdravia
Doteraz som viac-menej pravidelne cvičila, ale bolo to niečo ako domáca úloha: cvičila som, čo som videla na hodine, na workshope, alebo čo som dostala ako opravu. So zákazom vychádzania som sa začala báť, že sa nakazím, začala som pociťovať neistotu z budúcnosti a smútok z toho, čo sa deje. Potom som začala cvičiť takmer […]
Hmla sa zdvihla
Pred pandémiou som necvičila každý deň a keď už áno, tak väčšinou z fyzických dôvodov. Keď začal zákaz vychádzania, pocítila som strach, úzkosť, duševné utrpenie, už ani neviem v akom poradí. Mala som pocit, akoby v mojom v tele bola päsť, ktorá mi zvierala vnútornosti, nedávala mi priestor, dusila ma, nedovolila mi poriadne dýchať. Nevedela […]
