T'ai chi ch'uan

T'ai chi ch'uan theory and practice evolved in agreement with many Chinese philosophical principles, including those of Taoism and Confucianism. T'ai chi ch'uan training involves five elements, taolu (solo hand and weapons routines/forms), neigong & qigong (breathing, movement and awareness exercises and meditation), tuishou (response drills) and sanshou (self defence techniques). While t'ai chi ch'uan is typified by some for its slow movements, many t'ai chi styles (including the three most popular – Yang, Wu, and Chen) – have secondary forms with faster pace.

It is purported that focusing the mind solely on the movements of the form helps to bring about a state of mental calm and clarity. Some other forms of martial arts require students to wear a uniform during practice. Note: Chen Man-Ch'ing Short Tai Chi Form. Chen Man Ching Index. Glycemic Index.

Inverted Narcissist is a term, coined by Sam Vatkin which suggests a type of “dependent disorder” that is the compliment of a narcissistic personality.

NARCISSISM FREE

It is the compliment because someone who is considered an inverted narcissist depends upon a narcissistic personality for their affirmation of their worth, which is ironic since a narcissistic personality is the least likely to affirm their partner. To sum it up an inverted narcissist is a Co-dependent whose dependency is the narcissist rather than the drug addict, sex addict or alcoholic. However I believe this is just another label that serves to keep one trapped in the continuing believe that there is something terribly wrong with them.

The feeling that you are rotten to the core is called shame! Shame wears many faces but has the underlying sense that there is something wrong with you.
