Perhaps the largest Dragonfly that I've ever seen? He/she joined me for the first part of my practice.
The Details:
It's a cool 61 at the house. The sunrise was at 6:52. The last low tide was at 6:42.
The Practice:
Yesterday afternoon:
At around 4:30 I went down to the ocean to QW The Beach. I walked south and did a short stretch before turning around just south of 27th Ave. I did a brief stretch and calisthenics on the 21st Ave. Walkover before returning to the house. We went out to The Boston Fish House for supper.
Today:
I practiced in The Backyard again this morning. I was up and at it early this morning but I've been really enjoying relaxing in the early morning, perhaps a bit too much?
I started with full round of The 10+ - At #9 I did changes 1-6 of the Yin Fu 8 Palms Set. I've been working on #5 and 6 with the changes that I've noticed from Sifu Ray's recent videos on this Set.
Next I did a Round (left side) reciting the Taiji Classics during Part I. I focused on feeling Jin flowing freely up and down the 9 zig zag path. I've been slipping into the other side a bit more often than I would like. It gives me an opportunity to check my emotional response when I notice something is not quite right. Very important thing to keep track of. The goal is to stay equanimous when you are observing what and how your are practicing _____ Anything!
Next I did a short SPT and Healing Qigong
Next I did a round of Anyo Pito focused on the correct sequence and direction of postures.
Next I did a round on Sunsu Kata focused on the flow and direction of the postures.
