The other day, someone asked me about the mindset they should be in while practicing Tai Chi.  I explained the concept of Song to them, but they wanted something they could relate to at the moment.  As it's difficult to explain, as it's something you experience, I wanted to talk about something I've started called the "10 Seconds of Peace" and how it can help you experience what meditation is like.

Is the martial arts presentation usually “too” safe and never really expresses how the techniques are supposed to look or be applied?  There is a balance of presentation vs. practicality. The beginning martial artists should learn how to spar and how they can to start practicing without fear of being hurt.
