Is there likely to be a point where the masses suddenly realise what #bitcoin is?
Like a sudden orange pill moment? ๐
What would that look like to Bitcoin price?! ๐๐ค๐ณ

Zhan Zhuang - โStanding practiceโ
Many Tai chi schools utilise standing as a fundamental practice.
So why and for what purpose? ๐ค
Well itโs a deep subject and not all Tai Chi practitioners agree or even believe that the practice has any real value. However it has been in existence for hundreds if not thousands of years.
My experience is that it is a powerful exercise if done seriously and correctly.
It trains a number of things.
At the basic level - posture, alignments, and will power.
At the next level it trains โsungโ - the ability to release under pressure and โtingโ - the ability of the mind to penetrate deep into the body to be aware of what is happening.
In a nutshell standing develops physical strength and a calm and disciplined mind.
More posts on this subject to come. ๐๐

Good morning guys. Just realised I never properly introduced myself to Nostr. WTF! ๐๐
If you wanna follow me I live in Cornwall UK, Iโm a beach bum/lazy surfer, I work in mental health care, I generally like to post Tai Chi and spiritual related things, some jokey political memes also and Iโm learning about bitcoin and lightning network and could do with advice on the technical side - setting up nodes etc. cheers. โก๏ธ๐

Why move slowly in Tai Chi? ๐ค
Well the slow movement can be far more challenging. It places more strain on the body and mind forcing the practitioner to feel every inch of where he holds tension in his body.
When the discomfort becomes too much he must find โsungโ and release that tension. Sung and Ting are the two primary skills being cultivated.
Imaging doing a set of ten squats. Now do them at quarter speed feeling every tiny part of the movement. Do not allow the mind to dissociate, stay fully present however uncomfortable that is.
Over time the body becomes stronger and more released, more robust and flexible. The mind becomes calmer under pressure.
Through many repetitions the movements will become more fluid but maintain the power that was built in the slow practice. ๐

So my slightly strange journey into Bitcoin started in 2012. Quick disclaimer- I didnโt make it rich. ๐
Essentially what happened was that I got into Bitcoin and then Litecoin and inadvertently ended up running a Bitcoin node but really had no idea what I was doing.
I had technical problems and computer issues, lost my LTC and ended up spending my BTC on gift cards but canโt for the life of me remember what i spent those on! ๐ฉ
I then left the space entirely and didnโt get back in until 2021 during the bull market. I played around with some shit coins but didnโt really get orange pilled until early 2022. ๐๐
The crazy thing is that despite all my time wasting weโre still early! Mass adoption is around the corner and bitcoin is really the only serious option as money. โก๏ธ๐๐

Morning Nostr. ๐
Itโs overcast here in Cornwall UK.
However nearly time for coffee so that will perk me up. โ๏ธโ๏ธ๐


So what is Tai Chi really about? ๐คDepends who you ask.
For me itโs similar to a daily meditation. The benefits are hard to articulate but felt profoundly in the mind and body.
As I got older I focused more on fundamentals such as opening the body, releasing and stretching all of the muscles and soft tissues which cultivates quite incredible change to oneโs being.
โSungโ translated roughly as releasing or letting go is the key and changed the way I saw the art. Paradoxically it also improved dramatically the other martial arts I was practicing but thatโs another post.

Hey Nostr, quick post about Taiji/Tai Chi.
The art seems to be going through somewhat of a renaissance. Iโve noticed big gains being made especially in the Yang style from many teachers that have come to prominence over the last 10 years or so. The standard has really shifted!
So whatโs it all about. Well Iโm going to write regular posts on the subject from my own experience, I guess thatโs all any of us can really do.
Iโve been into it since 2001 and started practising with the HME - โHeaven Man Earthโ guys in 2018, kudos to them. Also other teachers from some Yang lineages.
I love that many of those guys are free spirits, some are into crypto but they all share an interest in building a better world - true creative types. Watch this space. ๐๐
