The Details:
It got down to 60 overnight and is currently 62 at the house and raining. It's forecast to be a bonafide rainy day. I'm going to reach out to Jean to see if it's a good day to visit Paul. We need a grocery shop too. So.... I planned to help with grocery shopping at Big Y then drive down to visit with Paul. But while I was in Big Y shopping I received a phone call from Jean saying that today is not the best day to visit. I'll keep trying. After grocery shopping I came home to unpack, eat lunch and journal today's practice.
The Practice:
I've realized that I'm currently out of sequence with the 'rotation' of my Baguazhang Palms/Sets/ I think some of my confusion are the day's that I don't do the entire rotation because i'm teaching at The Studio, doing a private lessons or simply too busy with chores and life. I need to re-do my rotation of Forms list so that it's easier to read.
I started on The Deck in the drizzle with a round of The 10 focused on overall health.
Next I did a Round (right side) reciting the Taiji Classics during Part I. I mainly was focused on 'getting it in' and being consistent, even when I'm too busy and would rather just do my chores. The was not the best Round I've ever experienced and not the worst either.....I did 'get it in'. The reality is consistency and perseverance are essential to success. Especially when it comes to Internal Martial Arts.
At this point I stopped to get ready to go into town and then to Hatfield.
