This chinese exersize is recommended for weight loss...
The Stomache Rubbing exercise is part of the Crane exercise, which is part of the Internal Exercises of Tai Chi. The exercises, where the froms flow from one into another, which you most often see when people perform Tai Chi are called the Exteneral exercises. Source: The Complete System of Self Healing, Internal Exercises by Dr. Stephen Chang, Tao Publishing, 1986, pp 108-113 http://www.mydr2.com/graphics/bellyrub.jpg "1. Begin by lying down flat on your back. Relax. 2. Put the palm of your hand on your navel. (If you are right handed use your right hand; if left handed use your left hand) Then start to rub clockwise from the center--that is, from the right to the left-- first in small circles and then gradually expand the movement untill the upper and lower limits of the stomach and abdomen are being rubbed (see figure 48a) 3 When you have completed the first movement, then reverse it, rubbing counterclockwise in smaller and smaller circles until you are back to the center of the navel. You need not press down with any force. Apply a sligh pressure as you rub slowly. 4. Repeat this clockwise and counterclockwise motion as mnay times as you wish. Note: A brisker versin of the Somach Rubbing Esercise also exists. You may begin this exercise by rubbing the palms of the hands togeher vigorously and placing the hands, palms down, on the lower abdomen so that they lie on either side of the navel. Now begin to rub both sides of the abdomen briskly, following the pattern depicted in figure 49. Rub so that both hands meet near the navel on the downswing. Keep on rubbing until the friction heats up the abdominal tissues. You may repeat this exersize as many times as you wish. This version of the exercise brings more stimulation and energy to the abdomen than the regular versin, so it can be used for debilitating diseases of the internal organs and peristalic problems. It is especially good for trimming down the girth. When you rub in a clockwise direction--which again, is from your right to your left in gradually widening circles-- you are encouraging proper and easeful bowel movements. Quite often constipation is a sysmptom indicating that the large intestine is over-functioning. The largte intestine is absorbing too much water from the waste matter as it passes throuh on its way to the rectum. This causes the waste matter to be compacted to the point where the normal peristalic activity of the large intestine is not sufficient to expel the waste matter. Constipation results and fecal material that would normally have been passed on through the anus are stored in the body. The clockwise action augments the peristaltic activity and slows down the water removal process down to normal levels. Rubbing in the counterclockwise motion has the opposite effect-- that of helping to soldify fecal material as it passes through the intestine (see figure 48b) It does this by stimulatin g the passage of water from the large intestine to the kidneys. In addition to the rubbing motion, the exercise also utilizes the pratctioners's sensory powers. When you do the exercise, use your imaginative pwoers to feel that the energy is coming form your hand and penetrating into the skin and organs underneath. You should feel that the energy is being retained and that it is heating up your abdominal tissues. As more energy penetrates your body, the area around your navel will begin to burn as if a fire has been started within your tissues. ... Achieving this senastation requires a great deal of concentratin and patience, and it should be done every time you do the exercise. Rubbing the abdomen in both clockwise and counterclockwise directins will help stomach ulcers. One case demostrating the exercise's effiaciousness is that of a 96 year old Chinese senator. He tackles his duites with more enthusiasm and energy than people one-forth his age. He is also actively involved in many different activities. Yet, he is never sick. His blood pressure, checked every morning by a goverment appointed nurse, is always normal. When admires ask him about his secret of youth. he tells them a story about a youthful experience. As a young man, he suffered from painful stomach ulcers, tuberculosis, and other diseases. When he served in the army, he sought medical help from doctors wherver he was staioned. Then one day, domeone told him about a famous, aged healer who lived deep in the mountains. So he made an appointment with the healer and struggled over the rocky terrain to see him. Having reached his destination, the yough man greeted the healer and beagan a monologue about himself and his problems. But the old man continued to meditate and seemed to ignore the visitor; he did not open his eyes or speak. Finally, the healer uttered, "Go home and rub your stomach." Further questioning drew no no replies. Disappointed at the simple remark, the young man sturggled home. Back home, disappointment, exhaustion, and anger caused the ulcer to flare up again. Left with no alternative, the young man relcutantly rubbed his stomach. Immediately the pain faded away. Encouraged, he began to rub his stomach faithrfully A few months later, the ulcer completely disappeared. Gradually the turberculosis disapperared also. His health ijproved daily. Seventy years later he still rubs his sotmach daily, after every meal and whenever he feels uncomfortable." The Stomach rubbing exersize is also good for constipation, liver cancer pain, stomach ulcers, upset stomache, belly aches, and acid reflux.
