Drawing the Bow

  1. From the Wu Chi position bend the elbows and lift the arms up so the palms face your chest.
  2. Turn the left palm out to the left with fingers pointing up.
  3. Imagine the left arm is pushing against a wooden part of an archer’s bow whilst the right finger are curled around the bows string.
  4. As you breath aout pull the imaginary string to the right and push out with the left palm to the left.
  5. Breathe in and bring the palm back in front of the chest and then repeat the exercise to the right.
  6. Repeat this cycle for a minute

This exercise is most beneficial to the thoraic cavity – the chest. It improves the circulation in the area. Additionally it also enhances the flow of Chi in the small intestine.
