Everywhere, there’s movement on this expanse of trees and grass and temples. All ages–from 9 to 99–are here, practicing Tai-chi and Sword Arts, swinging their arms, rubbing their kidneys, rotating their waists, and hanging from low-hanging tree branches (to stretch their spines).
Amid this all, is something that produces me rub my sleepy eyes and appearance again: teams of women are walking backwards up the lane. This: walking backwards, calmly and confidently.
This ancient exercise (yes! It is an exercise!) is probably the treasures of Chinese health practice, addressing problems with balance, leg strength, back strength, and posture. It may seem simple, though the explanations why it’s a sound practice are profound. Take a look at several:
1. As our bodies age, our anxiety about falling makes us react wrongly. When babies fall backwards, they simply plump into a sitting position, however this tendency disappears even as mature. Many falls wind up going backward because we arch our backs. Walking backwards rounds that section of our back we arch, and encourages ‘forward’ muscle use.
2. Anything that is wrong relating to your posture originated walking forward! Slumping, slouching, rounding, arching…dozens of bad habits. Walking backwards reverses these habits.
3. From an energetics standpoint, walking backwards actually re-frames consciousness within our bodies. The straightforward explanation is the fact that our attention is likely to favor leading in our bodies to the exclusion of what is behind us. Chinese health insurance and martial exercises both encourage ‘whole body’ awareness for ‘whole body’ health. Walking backwards generates a ‘sensor’ to integrate the therapy lamp.
4. Walking backwards actually engages different multiple muscles. This is very important especially as our bodies age, since we lose flexibility and our range of flexibility often diminishes. By making use of different muscles we exercise aspects of our own bodies which need attention.
