The Details:
It's 68 at the house. It's forecast to be cooler and less humid today. I don't have anything scheduled today.
I started with acoustic guitar practice a reading a poem from 'Evidence'
The Practice:
At mid-morning I went out to The Deck and did a full round of The 10+. I've added as much as I'm going to be able to approach day in and day out. I got it all in today but felt the pressure, especially towards the end. I had all I could do to do a round of Taiji Staff. Oy!
It got too hot on The Deck so I moved to my main practice area to finish the mornings practice.
Once I got settled I did a round of Taiji Dao using a wooden broadsword.
Next I did a Round (right side) reciting The Taiji Classics during Part I.
I tuned into the accurate sequence and number of postures, staying on the right side. As well as short and long term memory and monitoring the principles from a meditative point of view.
Next I did Changes 1-4 (both sides) of Yin Style Baguazhang's 8 Palm reciting the names of the postures throughout.
Next I did a round of Anyo Apat focused on correct sequence, applications and full extension in punches and kicks.
Next I did a round of Wansu Kata focused on consistency, correct sequence with good quality basics.
Next I did a round of Taiji Staff (both sides) in The Driveway focused on consistency.
I finished with Healing Qigong
I returned to the house to journal todays practice here in this blog.
