Exercise 4:

Exercise Four

This exercise causes a pleasant stimulation throughout the meridians and the energies to flow from the groin and down to the legs.

Table Forming:
Sit comfortly on the floor (mattress) with your legs apart as the length of your shoulder, body erect, feet flexed, place palms flat on the floor next to both of your hips, fingers pointed toward your feet.
Tuck your chin forward against your chest gently. Now, tilt your head backward far enough it could go.

At the same time, bend your knees and push up to a “tabletop” position, arms straight. Let your head fall back gently.

The trunk of the body to form a straight line with the upper legs, horizontal to the floor. Then, tense every muscle in the body gently as start, increase the tension level if you’ve feel enough practice on this exercise. Finally, relax your muscles as you return to the original sitting position.

Take note to have a rest in between before repeating this exercise again.

Remember to carry out this exercise slowly and aerobically, as to harmonize your internal organ and achieve optimum exercise’s benefits.

Breathing:
Inhale as you raise up, hold your breath as you tense the muscles in table forming position.

Exhale completely as you come down. Continue the breathing in the same rhythm as long as you rest between repetitions.

Exercise 5:

Exercise FiveThe fifth exercise brings an immediate change in the energy currents of the body. It makes one feel strong and revitalized and brings a radiant glow to the face.

Arching Bow:
Begin on all fours, toes flexed, palms on floor, weight distributed evenly among your knees, your palms, and the balls of your feet. Throughout this exercise, your hands and feet should be kept straight.

Begin with your arms perpendicular to the floor, and the spine arched downward, so that the body is in a sagging position. Slowly lift your buttocks toward the sky, with a flat back, lowering your head along with the movement of your hands, so your body makes an Inverted “V.”

Tuck your chin to your chest. Pause, then lower your buttocks while pressing your palms into the floor, until your legs are in a plank position (parallel to the ground), moving your chest out and shoulders back.

Breathing:

Inhale deeply on your way up;
Hold your breath on your inverted “V” position;
Exhale fully on your way down.

Repeat, up to 21 times but take slowly on the beginning, you could do a 3 repetition a first week, and gradually increase the repetition along with your body condition. In this exercise, your body is moving in rhythms, moving energy up the spine.

Again, please pay attention to your breathing pattern and body forming position, as “aerobic” exercise contribute greatly to achieve body state you’d ever imagine.

Finishing Posture Recommendation

After Exercise 5, lay comfortly on the ground (preferably a warm floor/exercise mattress), with your arms stretch out from side to side like Christ position, palm face upwards. Keep your head straight and relax, and close your eyes. Feel your heart pumping and blood circulating through your body.

Wait until your hearth beat and breath returns to normal. Take a few deep breaths.

Relax for 1 minute.

Begin your day or continue with your morning physical work out. You should have more than enough energy to get you jump started. If you perform these five exercise before bed, make sure you have 30 or 45 minutes to relaxation moment after rejuvenation of your energy.
