In Chinese Martial Arts, you will hear the statements, you are too Yin, or, your mind is too Yang? How do you use, or decode that?
During this podcast I walk through the terms Yin and Yang and how they were used. When they became connected to a map, that followed the sun, and then later became the symbol we think of today.
If you would like to get the full Yin/Yang Map and a PDF Bullet List of the major points that I go through during this podcast, you can go to :
www.tibetankungfu.net/81
You can have it delivered directly to your mailbox.
I hope you enjoy it.

‘You, Only better’

“I was able to change the assumption that I was “not as good as others”
into a more positive mantra: “if they can do it, so can I. focus on
progress, not perfection. “

Fear comes in many shapes and colors. Some fears of our physical
well-being are engrained at a fundamental level, as described in
Maslow's Heirarchy of needs. Some fears are foreshadows of what pain and
discomfort would be like, the fear of falling, the fear of drowing, in
martial arts, the fear of getting hit.
The fear precedes an actual event, and if the fear is strong enough it
can immobilize us till we can't move or perform.
What about fears that there is no inherit risk to our physical being?
The fear of public speaking
The fear of making a mistake in front of audience
The fear of performing
The fear of looking silly
These fears put us at no physical risk, but puts our ego and self-worth
in the cross-hairs.
Some fears can be worked through by 'doing', you put yourself in a
position to be safe as possible and work on it, for example, the fear of
falling.
With fears of performing, whether as a painter, an actor, or a martial
artist, 'doing' will not be enough to achieve your highest level of
success. You can't 'do' painting, you have to 'be' a painter.
What does it take to 'be' a painter, be a martial artist? I walk you
through step by step during this podcast.

Message from a Listener
The 3 month window called the Holiday Season, the time of higher joys,
higher expectations, higher stress. We put together an class that will
meet each thursday until January to give us all a little extra support.
A listener left a Review:
"Wow, I can't praise enough. I found these today and feel like I hit the
jackpot. Sifu Smith, what a generous service you are providing. Beyond
the wisdom and compassion you convey, the fact that you are providing
these through a non-cost podcast conveys even more to me. It's not so
easy to find consistent and high quality instruction or content for
free. Practically nothing is free anymore. What I have learned already
is invaluable, so thank you, thank you. You are a good person and a good
representative of what you teach."
