The quality of a person's physique and the strength of the internal organs were directly related to the function of the kidney. Essence was the source of energy for the human body and the basic material for refining pills internally.

Picture of Daoyin Technique
Some of the daoyin techniques had action diagrams in their introductions, but because there was no specific indication of which daoyin technique it was, it was impossible to accurately provide the specific daoyin technique action pictures. If it was the Manual of Traditional Chinese Medicine Daoyin Technique, it might contain the action diagrams of many kinds of exercises. For example, the White Dew Daoyin Technique, the Daoyin method in the Old Old Words, and the Brahmin Daoyin Technique might also have the corresponding action demonstration diagrams in their respective introductions, but these pictures could not be directly given here.
Introduction to Daoyin Technique
Daoyin Technique was a kind of health preservation technique that combined breathing exercises (Daoyin, which was to guide the qi to make it harmonious) and body movements (Yinyin, which was to make the body soft) in ancient China. It was also one of the dynamic skills in Qigong, similar to modern health gymnastics. It originated from the "big dance" in ancient times. By imitating the movements of reptiles and birds, it achieved the purpose of strengthening the body and prolonging life. The silk paintings unearthed from the Mawangdui Han Tomb in Changsha from 1972 to 1974 were the earliest existing guide maps in the world. There were 44 guide maps of various characters in the upper and lower layers. The characters in the maps were male, female, old and young, either wearing clothes or bare-backed. Most of them were bare-handed. Some of the drawings had names of the techniques, and some of the words were distinguishable. Among them, there were birds, harrier, cranes, apes, monkeys, dragons, and bears. It was similar to the Five Animal Frolics but lacked deer and tiger plays. During the Three Kingdoms period, Hua Tuo summarized the daoyin technique into five methods, named "Five Animal Frolics", namely tiger play, deer play, bear play, ape play, and bird play. However, Hua Tuo's Five Animal Frolics had been lost. Later, Tao Hongjing of the Southern Dynasty recorded Hua Tuo's "Five Animal Frolics" in "Yangxing Yanming Lu". In the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Lvjing improved it in his "Red Phoenix Marrow" and "Longevity Immortal Book" to reduce the difficulty of the movements. It was combined with qi circulation. In addition to the text description, it also drew a program map. In addition, there was also Peng Zu's Qi-circulating Daoyin Technique, which was completely compatible with the "Qi-circulating Inscription." Its pithy formula reflected the breathing training process of focusing on qi and softness, including abdominal breathing and other contents. Moreover, it could be expressed in six forms, such as sucking the essence of heaven, breathing, and calming the monkey. There were also the thirteen Daoist Daoyin forms and other different Daoyin techniques. Different daoyin techniques had their own characteristics and effects. Persevering in practice would help strengthen one's physique, improve one's immunity, and prolong one's life.

Taiqing Daoyin Technique Scripture
"Taiqing Daoyin Health Sutra" volume, anonymous author. It was composed of many Daoyin methods, divided into five parts: "Carefully Cultivate Internal Law,""Wang Qiao Daoyin Map,""Peng Zu Daoyin Map,""Naughty Formula" and "Swallowing Formula," and copied the Daoyin methods of Mr. Ning and Daolin. It included many specific Daoyin Qigong methods, such as the Red Pine Seed Daoyin Method. These methods had the effects of health preservation, treatment, and longevity. Different daoyin techniques contained three elements: body adjustment, breath adjustment, and heart adjustment. Body adjustment referred to physical training, breath adjustment referred to the adjustment of breathing patterns, and heart adjustment referred to the adjustment of the mind. The combination of the three elements constituted the daoyin realm.
Daoyin Technique's Effect on Body Tempering
Daoyin had many effects on the body: ** 1. From the perspective of qi movement ** 1. ** In terms of health care ** - Qi was the foundation of life, and each of the five viscera and six bowels had its own rules of qi movement, such as the four images of the earth pivot and the circulation of qi. Comply with the qi of the internal organs can play a role in health care. - Qi was the source of all diseases, and many diseases were initially caused by the disorder of qi. When Qi was blocked, the acupuncture points would give an alarm. If it was not cleaned up in time, it would cause illness. Through Daoyin, one could regulate one's qi and prevent and improve the disease in its early stages. For example, burping or farting during the practice of the ancient Eight Duan Brocade was a sign that the qi movement had been adjusted. - If the local qi movement was not relieved, it would cause the disease to flare up again and again. Because qi was the commander of blood, if the qi movement was obstructed for a long time, it would cause blood to accumulate, forming blood clots, lumps of flesh, blisters, and even cancer. A simple surgery would only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. The foundation was to regulate qi flow, and the daoyin technique had a unique effect in this aspect. 2. ** For emergency cases ** - Although many people doubted whether the health maintenance method could treat emergencies, if they could master the qi flow of the five viscera and six bowels and use the daoyin technique to regulate qi flow, it might be helpful in treating some emergencies. ** 2. From the perspective of specific actions and health preservation methods ** 1. ** minimalist fitness guidance method ** - For example, in Ling Jianzi's Daoyin Technique, the action of crossing one's hands and then kicking with one's feet could remove the restraint of the waist and legs and relieve the coldness in the kidneys. Sitting on the bed and stretching his hands to the tips of his toes 35 times could regulate the cold and dampness in his legs and remove the poison gas in his kidneys. - This was a Daoyin technique developed by Chao Yuanfang, the imperial physician of the Sui Dynasty. With one hand raised, the palm turned in all directions, and the other hand down. The two palms exerted relative strength, which could make the heart qi go down. Turning the spine sideways could make the whole body's bones dissipate qi, which was effective for waist and spine diseases. 2. ** Daoyin Technique for special seasons and physical conditions ** - When the whole body was cold, weak, weak, and blood was stagnant, there was a daoyin technique called feeling the heavens and offering sacrifices to the earth. It was done 36 times a day. After it was done, it could calm the person down and smooth the triple energizer. It was suitable for learning after the age of 40. - In winter, muscle contractures and back pain were common. It was important to combine the solar terms with the relationship between the five viscera and six bowels. For example, in the tenth month of the lunar calendar, when the heart and lung qi are weak and the kidney qi is strong, you should reduce the hard work to nourish the kidney qi. Otherwise, there will be bone pain, waist weakness, tooth shaking, ringing in the ears, and so on. He could use a specific daoyin technique to accumulate energy in winter, and he could also accumulate energy from the kidney and the spring under his feet. 3. ** Brahmin Daoyin: Winter Cypress in the Wind ** - The key points of the movements included the basic postures such as opening the feet slightly wider than the shoulders. The combination of movements is like holding the stick with both hands to carry out a series of movements such as overhead, falling, lifting the stick, etc. During practice, one hand moves with the other hand, dividing yin and yang and not competing. Every time you do 50 - 100 times, the body will sweat slightly, which has the effect of balancing yin and yang. ** 3. From the perspective of overall body coordination ** 1. ** Up, down, left, right cooperation ** - Daoyin technique follows the principle of treating the upper disease with the lower treatment and treating the left disease with the right treatment. As mentioned in Plain Questions,"For the disease of reverse qi, if the disease is in the upper part, the lower part should be taken; if the disease is in the lower part, the upper part should be taken; if the disease is in the middle part, the side should be taken". In the ancient Eight-piece Brocade, it ingeniously integrated the guidance of the left, right, up and down intersection, such as the strength of the left leg to the right hand, the strength of the right leg to the tip of the left hand, etc. In the second, third, and seventh movements, the intersection of the left, right, up and down, hands and feet played the subtlety of the Daoyin technique, achieving the effect of hand and foot coordination and mutual pursuit. - The brain controls the body, the left and right brain controls the opposite body, and the eyes are the same. This kind of physiological structure was also related to the principle of up, down, left, and right coordination in the guidance technique. Through the correct coordination of the hands, feet, and body parts, a better health effect could be achieved.
Health Qigong Mawangdui Daoyin Technique
The Mawangdui Daoyin Technique was the oldest fitness method recorded in China, and it could be said to be the treasure of Chinese martial arts. It was based on the movements in the Daoyin Map unearthed from the Han Tomb at Mawangdui, Changsha, Hunan Province. Its main features included: The main characteristics of the exercise are to guide the body along the meridians and follow the form and intention. The movements are designed around the opening and closing of the limbs, the rotation of the limbs, the extension of the limbs, and the stretching of the muscles and bones. The movements are beautiful, smooth, and easy to learn. The whole exercise takes about 19 minutes, suitable for the general public, especially the middle-aged and elderly people. The breathing is natural. The form guides the qi and the intention guides the qi. When the movements are practiced, the tension is alternated. It is relaxed and round. The form and intention follow each other, and the body and mind are one. It also combined the qi and blood circulation route and the muscle stretching movement method in the meridian theory of traditional Chinese medicine. The twelve movements corresponded to the twelve main meridians in the meridian theory and were arranged according to the order of qi and blood flow in the meridians. The Mawangdui Daoyin Technique had many effects. For example, it could dredge the meridians, harmonize the blood and Qi, and achieve Yin and Yang secrets, thus strengthening the body and prolonging life. Different moves corresponded to different meridian exercises and had different health effects. For example,"Drawing the Bow" exercised the lung meridian of hand taiyin, which could soothe the liver and disperse the lung, and had a certain effect on chronic rheumatism."Guiding the back" exercised the large intestine meridian of hand yangming, which could activate the shoulder and neck, relax the chest and hypochondrium, and so on. After years of careful research, Professor Qiu Pixiang, a Ph.D. tutor of martial arts at the Shanghai Institute of Physical Education, had categorized the moves into three series of thirty-two movements.
Mawangdui Daoyin Technique Breathing Method
The breathing method of Mawangdui Daoyin Technique was as follows: 1. Breathe in when you raise your arms and exhale when you open your arms. 2. Breathe in when you stretch your arms and exhale when you turn your palms down. 3. Inhale when lifting the heel and lifting the handle, exhale when rubbing the heel.
