The School of Cultivation and Practice

Notice what happens when you simply stop holding yourself up.

In Wujifa, we look for the precise moment where muscular bracing ends and structural integrity begins. As you settle, allow the weight to sink, releasing the habitual tension that keeps the body fragmented. You might find a curious sensation as the large muscles let go—the connective tissues begin to wake up, stretching and engaging to create a functional "oneness" from the ground to the crown.

This isn't a collapse; it is an alignment. By sinking into that internal space, you are tensioning the connective tissues so the body operates as a single unit. You aren't "doing" a posture—you are removing the internal resistance until the ground supports you with an effortless, resilient strength.

Feel the bracing drain away, leaving only a quiet, integrated power that moves as one.

Here is a poem, more about it in a minute.

“I meditate and find Wujifa and seek to find my inner peace,
To be in balance and connected with calm and ease.

Connecting to the unity that extends my being, that hides within both me and you.
My body, breath and focus, discovering the practice true.

Structure, relaxed with connection I find harmony
Calming my spirit and released with inner unity

Equilibrium and unity I now recognize
Feeling the power, poise within me, it is of no surprise

Wujifa gives me balance and a sense of ease
Giving me the courage to move towards life with zest and zeal.

I now have the tools to fill my heart with light
And find a joy in a world of presence and might.”

I’ve been playing with ChatGPT open AI app sharing concepts of Wujifa and seeing what it can come up with as poetry. It’s not always good but it’s fun. Thought I would share this here where some will likely understand this message coming from the mind of ChatGPT’s Artificial Intelligence. Enjoy and Happy New Year!

From Michael's Wujifa Blog:

"The pelvis is the seat of sexuality. Depending on how this sexuality is expressed or repressed and the emotions associated with this expression or repression hugely influence the muscular holding pattern around the pelvis. In my case, holding back expressing the sadness and resentment surrounding denying the expression of my sexual-ness is the root of why I cannot relax through the pelvis. Encountering the holding and asking it to let go and relax simultaneously releases the "pent up" emotions associated with the muscular holding."
