Everywhere, there is movement with this expanse of trees and grass and temples. All ages–from 9 to 99–are here, practicing Tai Chi and Sword Arts, swinging their arms, rubbing their kidneys, rotating their waists, and hanging from low-hanging tree branches (to stretch their spines).
Amid all of this, is something which makes me rub my sleepy eyes and appearance again: groups of women are walking backwards in the lane. Just that: walking backwards, calmly and confidently.
This ancient exercise (yes! It is really an exercise!) is one of the treasures of Chinese health practice, addressing problems with balance, leg strength, back strength, and posture. It may look like simple, though the main reasons why it is just a sound practice are profound. Take a look at a few:
1. As we get older, our concern with falling causes us to be react wrongly. When babies fall backwards, they simply plump into a sitting position, but this tendency disappears once we age. Many falls end up going backward because we arch our backs. Walking backwards rounds that part of our back we arch, and encourages ‘forward’ muscle use.
2. Precisely what is wrong relating to your posture came from walking forward! Slumping, slouching, rounding, arching…those improper habits. Walking backwards reverses these habits.
3. From an energetics standpoint, walking backwards actually re-frames consciousness in our bodies. The straightforward explanation is always that our attention has a tendency to favor top of our own bodies on the exclusion of what’s behind us. Chinese wellness martial exercises both encourage ‘whole body’ awareness for ‘whole body’ health. Walking backwards generates a ‘sensor’ to integrate the bradenton area.
4. Walking backwards actually engages very different multiple muscles. This will be significant especially as we get older, because we lose flexibility and our range of flexibility often diminishes. Through the use of different muscles we exercise areas of your body that want attention.
