It is also a sophisticated martial arts system. Through practicing Tai Chi you are able to calm down the mind, locate your spiritual center, and consequently find your entire being. From the relaxed moving exercise, you can bring your physical body into an ultimate level of relaxation and natural ease, resulting in smooth Qi (inner energy) and blood circulation. This is a key to maintaining health and recovering from sickness. Tai Chi Chuan is an ancient internal Chinese martial art which has gained widespread popularity for its many health benefits. Today, most people practice Tai Chi slowly to develop their balance, strength, and vitality, and the martial applications of the art are often ignored. Also spelled Taijiquan, 'Grand Ultimate Fist' is a highly effective form of combat specializing in short and middle-range fighting. In China, t'ai chi ch'uan is categorized under the Wudang grouping of Chinese martial arts, which are applied with internal power (jing), using Qi (energy). The history of the basic postures in the Yang form can be traced back through Wudang mountain to Shaolin Temple, developed from a series of movements originating from "Chang Quan" (Long Fist, a reference to the winding Long River, another name for the Yangtze). Around 800 AD, a philosopher named Xu, Xuan-Ping is credited for developing a long Kung Fu of 37 forms, which included these common Tai Chi movements: • Play the Guitar • Single Whip • Step Up to Seven Stars • Jade Lady Works the Shuttles • High Pat on Horse • Phoenix Flaps Its Wings "Taiji Chang Quan" existed in many variations, and eventually evolved into Taijiquan. Other forms of the same era such as "Heavenly-Inborn Style", "Nine Small Heavens", and "Acquired Kung Fu" also show similarities to what later became Taijiquan. The principles of softness, sticking, adhering, and using the opponent's own momentum against himself were established in these precursory martial styles. Bodhidharma's teaching at the Buddhist Shaolin Temple around 550AD, which detailed the theory of using the mind to lead the Qi to energize the physical body, is widely considered the origin of all Internal Martial Arts, including Tai Chi. Dr. Yang's tai chi can be traced back to the Yang family through Grandmaster Kao, Tao (高濤) and his teacher Yue, Huanzhi (樂奐之), an indoor disciple of Yang, Chengfu (楊澄甫).

BioGeometry® is the patented science of using the energy principles of shape to qualitatively balance biological energy systems and harmonize their interactions with the environment. Balancing the activities of daily life, achieving harmony with our inner and outer environments, humanizing modern technology, and integrating science and spirituality is the work of the science of BioGeometry. Developed by Dr. Ibrahim Karim, the founder of the science of BioGeometry. BioSignatures are a set of linear diagrams that enter into resonance with the patterns of energy flow in the body organs. They are conceptually similar to the meridians of Chinese acupuncture, except that BioSignatures relate to the shape of the organ, while the meridians are related to the overall shape of the body. The BioGeometry BioSignatures emitters are used to connect the BioSignatures to an individual’s energy system through a photo of the person placed in the center of the page. A photo contains the energetic information of an individual and can be used to enter into resonance with the BioSignatures. When each pattern enters into resonance of shape with the corresponding shaped energy flow in the body, the harmonized BioSignatures shape balance the energy flow in the body’s energy system. You can choose preset background emitters or create your own by choosing which BioSignatures you would like to place inside the emitter. On both sides of the emitter there are numerous BioSignatures arranged into a circular pattern. In the center there is an empty space reserved for a photo. As. On the boundaries of the emitter we find 7 BioGeometry “L shapes” which amplify this connection. To use the emitter, print it out to scale and hang it in your home. The emitter will work even if the photo is not recent. It is not recommended to laminate, cover, or place the emitter in a drawer. Once a day wipe off any settled dust off the emitter by shaking it. Or with your finger touching the paper emitter draw a vesica shape for clearing.
