traditional chinese medicine

气,分先天之气和后天之气。先天之气,玄之又玄,各家纷纭,除非是有特殊能力的群体,不然感知不到,对于常人而言只存在于理论当中。后天之气,就是生命运行的根本,可以理解成一个某些人体机制的集合(比如神经系统+血液/体液循环+未发现的信息传递聚道,等等),伴有感官上的变化(比如发热,发麻)。

后天之气在人体中按照自然生理,循环往复,维持人体的日常行为。而气功,则是通过意念引导气、血,或强化,或改变后天之气的天然运行,来强化某方面的功能(其生理原理是通过意识控制局部肌肉微收缩来加速局部血液循环)。天赋好的,练到后期随着整体素质增强可能觉醒某些能力,感知到先天之气。就算一直感知不到,人体作为一个多元结构,练后天之气的同时,自然也在调整一些灵体层面的状态,只是受限于物种肉体限制,感知不到罢了。所以也不是完全断了神秘世界的大门。对神秘不感兴趣的人,至少也能调理顽疾,大幅减少亚健康疾病,延年益寿。

乱练的副作用:

气功和各种健身运动一样,因为会在锻炼期间有可能打破正常的生理运行,所以若是过度,或是错误运行,就会对身体组织造成一定负担和损害。若是运行于体表软组织的气功(比如一些强身健体/减肥的气功)出了岔子,可能造成的损害相对较小,造成一些软组织的气血郁结,可以按摩针灸去很有效的舒缓。但若是练脏腑的气功出了岔子,则可能产生比较严重且持续的问题。

所以初学练气功,尤其是感知天赋好的,可以去多尝试一些局部的片段式的,不涉及内脏的气功,但最忌讳像小说里的主角一样去强行创造改变大面积的气血运行路线。人体本身的气血循环不一定是最完美的,但一定是最安全最贴合个体本身的。气功的目的应该是循序渐进的,在自然的基础上去修复一些先天的不足,或是强化某些方面来应对不同的外界需求,进而获得整体的提升。

Qi Gong

Qigong massage is a therapeutic bodywork technique from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that emphasizes balancing and enhancing the body’s energy flow, or qi, through gentle movements and acupressure. It aims to relieve pain and improve circulation by unblocking energy pathways, making it especially beneficial for those with pain caused by poor circulation or energy stagnation.

It works similar as Acupuncture but without needles.
