Preparation Before Meditating in Chen Style Taiji

1. Preparation Before Meditating
Preferably you should wear loose comfortable clothes. First practice the Warm-up exercises, as described in Chapter Two of the book, to let your muscles and tendons relax, helping your blood and Qi to circulate freely. While you are sitting, your back should be straight without leaning forward or back. Make sure the air in the area you practice in is fresh and if you are indoors that it circulates freely by leaving a window slightly ajar. However, avoid strong currents of wind while you practice, and try to keep away from any external interruptions, such as phones or other people.
