Learning How To Think

If the mind were to be likened to a stream of flowing water, multitasking is like using a spoon to fill up a bucket! It is inefficient and energy depleting. My practice in taijiquanteaches me everyday how important (not to mention tough) it is to move the body slowly. When I say “tough” I mean that we are so used to moving fast that slowing down is an effort but once the body is trained in slow movements, you experience an efficiency in use of muscles. Needless to say, the body becomes stronger. This is my experience with slowing down.
