Eight-segment brocade of health qigong, preparatory style, left foot stepping ... "In the morning, in a corner of the park, with the music of Eight-segment brocade played in headphones, Yoshijima took a deep breath, slowly raised his left foot, and followed the password to start Eight-segment brocade's" Three Jiao with both hands "-this is the first step to complete the task of punching cards every day.
A few days ago, the "Guidelines for Home Chinese Medicine Intervention for Infected People in Covid-19" issued by the state administration of traditional chinese medicine Committee of Experts on Disease Prevention of Traditional Chinese Medicine included Ba Duan Jin and other exercises in the prevention plan of home Chinese medicine in Covid-19.
As a result, this set of traditional fitness exercises in China is now quietly popular among young people.

Set up a group to punch in Baduanjin
"Drop, record the 31st day of punching in Baduanjin." At 8 o'clock in the morning, Yoshijima sent a line in her Baduanjin punch card group, which is the day when she punched her Baduanjin full moon.
Yoshijima is 23 years old and is currently studying in the second year of graduate school. In summer, she goes to the gym every day to do anaerobic and aerobic exercise, and she also likes jogging and mountain climbing outdoors. In winter, she feels that it is inconvenient to play outdoor sports or go to the gym. So, she wanted to find some exercises that were more soothing and sweaty. After accidentally seeing Baduanjin on the Internet, she decided to try this traditional fitness method.
In the early morning of November, 222, Yoshijima got up early, found a bench in the park, put his thermos cup away, leaned back with his mobile phone, played eight videos of brocade, and began to learn one stroke at a time. Although she felt a little laborious at first, she persisted for 12 minutes.
after the fight, she felt feverish all over and had some energy, so she decided to stick to it. "Just punch in and record it." The idea flashed. She took out her mobile phone and posted a post on the Internet: "Baduanjin Punch DAY1, I feel that this movement is slow and suitable for myself. Are there any sisters punching together?"
what Yoshishima didn't expect was that when she opened the post that afternoon, there were dozens of unread messages. She pointed out that many people are interested in Ba Duan Jin, and many people even privately believe her and ask if they can build a WeChat group to punch cards together. Surprised, she was more happy, so she built a WeChat group called "Baduanjin Punch everyday" and brought in all the people who wanted to join the group.
"This group is used to punch cards for sisters who love Ba Duan Jin to keep fit and keep fit. They can also discuss health topics, share life pleasures, and say any worries, but remember to punch cards!" After Yoshishima became the owner of the group, she was worried that there would be similar advertisements, bad links and other contents, and that there would be punching cards for other health-keeping gymnastics such as Tai Ji Chuan and Diamond Sutra, so she deliberately emphasized in the group announcement that this group was punching cards for Baduanjin to maintain order in the group.
After that, people kept sending private messages to Yoshijima, expressing that they wanted to join the punching group. Yoshijima enjoyed it and responded positively. The new "Jinyou" who just joined the group greeted warmly, the old "Jinyou" warmly welcomed them, and some group friends pulled people around them into the group. In this way, this small group quickly gathered more than forty like-minded young people.
"Jinyou" became attached
The average age was twenty-four or five years old
Most of the punch-in group were girls born after 1995, and several were born after , with an average age of twenty-four or five years old. In addition to the regular punching of Baduanjin every day, this group of girls will also exchange their reasons for starting to practice Baduanjin in the group. The basic situation is similar to that of Yoshijima. They are afraid of cold, have stomach problems or poor sleep, and have poor immunity. They all began to be plagued by some minor problems at a young age, and they wanted to enhance their immunity through different ways.
They became attached to each other because of the eight paragraphs of brocade. "Friends of brocade will tell their own stories, and this atmosphere of telling and talking to each other is like a big family."
In the process of group communication, the stories of several "Jinyou" also left a deep impression on Yoshijima. A treasure mother found out cancer, and her anxiety made it difficult for her to sleep. In order to improve her sleep and keep fit, she began to practice Ba Duan Jin. Haruko, the "elder" in the group, will enthusiastically answer questions about many diseases such as dry eye, pharyngitis, rhinitis, migraine and anxiety. There is Artu, who is a nurse. After work every day, she is also a talented person in the duty room.
"Is there anything particular about practicing Ba Duan Jin? Is it better to practice in the morning or in the afternoon? " In the group, some problems appear from time to time. "It's better to practice in the morning, and it will affect the quality of sleep too late." The "Jinyou" in the group enthusiastically gave their own experiences and answers, and also sent videos of their own practice to the group for everyone to learn from and discuss the precautions of various moves and breathing.
However, Yoshishima soon had some concerns of his own. "I am not an expert myself, but I belong to Ba Duan Jin Xiaobai and lack experience." With more and more "friends" joining the group, being the group owner makes her feel a little stressed.
After a long time, there are some differences of opinion among group members. As a group, she is mainly responsible for coordinating contradictions. For example, Xiaojia, who has anxiety disorder, often complains and worries about her physical condition in the group. In this regard, A Qing expressed her dissatisfaction in the group and privately talked about Yoshijima, saying that she couldn't stand it and wanted to quit the group. Yoshijima could only persuade between the two sides, and the group slowly resumed "peace."
Yoshijima found that the "friends of Jin" in the group not only punched cards and discussed Ba Duan Jin every day, but also discussed a lot of health and wellness knowledge. Some girls asked in the group: "What if the physiological period is postponed?" You will get enthusiastic answers: "It is suggested that boiling angelica eggs with brown sugar water to warm your body may be useful, my mother's old method" and "soaking your feet with hot water every night and sticking to Ba Duan Jin is useful". In addition, health tips such as stomach nourishing recipes and massage acupoints will also appear in the group from time to time.
In addition, the theme of this group is not only health preservation, but also sharing life, helping "Jinyou" to ease their emotions and encourage each other. Some girls will bask in delicious food or short daily videos in the group. When the group friends have troubles in life, "Jinyou" will also go online one after another, enthusiastically comforting them, and by the way, recommending some small tricks to pat some body parts to get rid of their sulks. The atmosphere is very harmonious.
Young people learn to keep fit
"slow" life is becoming more and more popular
Baduanjin's fitness and health-keeping skills can quietly become popular among these young people, and the reason is closely related to online communication. "Jinyou" Xiao He said that he started to practice through the recommendation of his favorite bloggers. Yoshijima, which often browses health and fitness information, is influenced by big data and often looks at traditional fitness techniques such as Baduanjin, Wuqinxi and Diamond Sutra pushed by the platform.
"I've played in Tai Ji Chuan before, and I actually want to try Wuqin Opera, but I feel that (those) are more difficult than Baduanjin." Although Yoshijima started practicing Baduanjin by chance, Yoshijima would recommend Baduanjin to people around her, and several friends started punching cards every day with her strong recommendation. Ba Duan Jin has unexpectedly become one of the topics of daily family communication.
In fact, in addition to Baduanjin, Tai Ji Chuan, Wuqinxi, Diamond Sutra and other traditional health-keeping exercises are gradually becoming popular among many young people.
browsing the major social platforms, it is not difficult to find that some young people are no longer obsessed with the "speed" of western physical exercise, but gradually accept the "slowness" of China's traditional physical exercise.
Work and study pressures, such as working overtime and writing papers, bring great burden to the body, and diseases such as cervical spondylosis, stomach trouble and headache are also coming one after another, and unhealthy behaviors such as drinking and staying up late make the "difficult" body worse. Some young people have a similar lifestyle to Yoshishima's before. Before they came into contact with "slow exercise", they would choose to go to a bar to play all night as a way to relax, but they found that it would take several days to get back to normal after playing once.
Nowadays, more and more young people are joining the health care group, holding up thermos cups and starting the whole health care work. "I have used a thermos for a long time, and I won't drink water that is lower than my body temperature." Yoshijima has had stomach trouble for several years. After seeing a doctor several times, she stopped drinking, kept her thermos cup, cooked health tea by herself, soaked her feet every night, and adhered to the concept of going to bed early and getting up early. She climbed the mountain at five or six o'clock in the morning and punched eight brocade cards every day, which made her a semi-amateur "expert" in stomach trouble.
Slowness has become a lifestyle choice for some young people nowadays. They began to study cooking, growing vegetables, chess and cards and other ways of life and entertainment that returned to reality, and the pace of life gradually slowed down. Therefore, the "slow" rhythm exercises such as Baduanjin, Tai Ji Chuan and Wuqinxi are also in line with the rhythm of life that these young people yearn for.
