Do In y Chi Kung
Do In is a Japanese expression of the Chinese terms Tao Yin or Dao Yin.
Its roots are present in ancient texts such as the Neijing of the Yellow Emperor (2697-2597a.C.) and the Tao te Ching of Lao Tzu (6th century B.C.)
Grouping the oldest movements and gymnastic techniques in China and is considered the ancestor of Qi Gong (or Chi Kung).
Do In comes from Chinese medicine, that is, from ancient medicine called Taoist; and it is precisely to underline this cultural origin that the Japanese call it Do In keeping the same characters Dǎo yǎn 導 引 in traditional Chinese or 导 引 in simplified Chinese.
Tao and Dao are the same word that can be written in two traditional and simplified "modern" ways.
The ideogram 導 contains the features of Tao 道 as in the Way, the Way, but with the key of the thumb or a finger that guides, orienting, leading to the Way. The idea is to show the Way.
It can be briefly said that Do In contains Taoist exercises involving breathing, stretching and self-massage to cultivate attention and body-mind harmony by working on the points and channels of the yin and yang energy meridians and balancing these polarities.
It is the typical cultural method of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) mainly used to regulate energy (Qi or Ki) in the organs, balance body fluids and thus prevent and treat diseases.
Do In stimulates all the systems of the human body: respiratory, circulatory, nervous, digestive, hormonal, muscular, articular.
Today, Do In is defined as an art that uses a combination of breathing and body movements to stimulate points and activate the flow of Ki (energy) throughout the body.
With tips also like tapping, swallowing, deep breathing, dry hair styling, dry facial cleansing, ear rubbing, foot massage, kidney rubbing, general friction, etc.
It is good to know that the Dao Yin is a global health method that groups at least 30 types and families: Massage (An Mo), Mobilization (An Kyo), Kung Fu, Qi Gong (Chi Kung) Tai Chi, Acupuncture, Moxibustion, Phytotherapy, etc.
Not counting the innumerable forms and currents according to schools and geographical regions!
Among these currents, we point out one of the most famous practices today in the West Qi Gong (Chi Kung)
Chi Kung or Qi Gong refers to two terms: Chi or Qi (氣): representing the Energy and Kung o Gong ( 功) representing Work.
Represents an exercise practice that optimizes mental and physical health through the use of awareness and mindfulness.
Qi Gong was originally established as a system of life that contains three elements: God, Form and Qi.
The term Qi is the third element because it is the messenger, the one who communicates, who makes the relationship between "Form" and "God", the earthly form (incarnation) and the divine form (Celestial).
It really wants us to be able to work with the energy of Heaven, Earth and our own energy as Human Beings, finding health, serenity and balance.
Chi Kung as any technique needs practice, but it is true that the results are manifested quickly, although it varies in people, according to their state, degree of openness, sensitivity and constancy.
Their movement routines are suitable for all ages.
One of the movements we practice in the classes, and the best known, are those gathered under the name of Ba Duan Jin (drawing below) literally the eight pieces of brocade that as the name indicates itself are considered precious, eight jewels for a long and healthy life.
