Associated Researcher Laboratory of Knowledge & Intelligent Computing (KIC-LAB) Department of Applied Informatics and Telecommunications  University of Ioannina Greece Director & Researcher of Movement for Life Research Lab (MLRLab) Greece Professor in the Department of Applied Informatics and Telecommunications, University of Ioannina, Greece Executive Board for Medical Research in the International Mei Hua Quan Federation, USA  General Practical training in Kung Fu is based on movement awareness through the entity of the moment and spiritual clarity. It is a process of self-knowledge of the space-time moment of our existence and our adaptability to space and time. It is directly related to our breathing capacity and its management at the moment and before and after it.It is impossible to achieve significant results if we have not joined the interior with the outside. It means that in the course of our movement, the Spirit is joined to the body through the existence of the Spatio-temporal change that contains a conscious process of being.The essence of Tai Chi Chuan is in constant motion, which has no beginning and finally, of course, the union of Mind and body. Even before the motion begins, the Mind has already created it. If the Mind does not merge with motion, it has no substance. We will just move like a leaf drops from the tree with the air.Here lies the discovery of the inner self and the identification of the substance. Otherwise, we simulate some moves that do not have an internal essence. According to Krishnamurti, without self-knowledge, we can not go beyond the limits of the Mind. So we will never be free. Training & practicing kung fu The liberation of the Mind and our mental states are directly related to how we see the world and participate in the discovery and investigation of the truth and our gnostic status. To become better, you need to do better first of the inner self. After that, the compound will come into effect. It brings about a situation called the will of life. This process adapts all the chemical processes of life and all the systems involved. This union has the potential to broaden the Mind and body of its parts and to adapt all its fields of existence towards psychosomatic recovery. During practice, four virtues have alternation and appearance in a circular sequence, such as purity, satisfaction, discipline and spiritual exploration. These make Kung Fu a unique art that is refreshed and reproduced through the sequence of motions and combinations that eventually promote the human body and spiritual humanity of man. It can promote the inner balance and helps to develop the binary equilibrium of the external behaviour and the spiritual character of the individual. It leads to auto suction and is spiritually uplifting. Training Path Kung fu This function assists the evolution and process of adaptability and regeneration, which means that there is something different to its power and the use of this in the world. It has to do with the balance of the moment, namely the balancing of the inner and the outer self at the moment when the whole body and our two entities are consciously united. It creates an evolutionary personality that is regenerated at any moment through this union and spiritually uplifting if it is possible for our Spirit to be unaffected. This can be achieved by satisfying our external thoughts and the spiritual part of our personality. Satisfaction can mean acceptance without subordination and consent. The whole world can not be governed only by power. Through training in traditional Kung Fu, the person acquires a present-day experience. So it turns Qi and the technique at every moment into something unique that we understand and experience it once. It helps to calm down mental disturbance and stimulation without reason or substance. If there is such satisfaction, there is no meaning and substance, neither the cause nor the disorder. Thus the movement that the practitioner presents is united in its two hypostases that characterize our existence in a calm that is independent of external influences and situations that surround us and can affect us at any time. Balance of Mind & Body It is directly related to balancing and combining the Mind and body material. Two different but similar parts should not be separated from one another. Movement discipline has its merit in this union and its preservation. Without it, power becomes uncontrollable and destructive. So it is a study of our inner self in the context of its separation from rules that govern our separation, mimics and dependencies, which have no real value and make the Spirit and the consciousness separate their essence. That is to create an imbalance. Each move passes consecutively from fixed points that we try to keep united in succession and continuity. It resembles a sequence of functions that are represented by a continuous line in space and time. At every point that is a distinct moment of our being in the real universe, we must keep the Mind and body unified to unify our existence with it. Performing every movement through the continuity of the points of space and time in complete consciousness and flow is an exercise in being able to act in your life unified and consciously. So what’s going on with Kung fu and the move. The power of Kung fu lies behind the moment we live by making every move within the space and time we choose. It means we are in touch with the evolution around us. We do not cease to exist, nor do we cut off

Meridians & Health Effects on the Body Da Shi Stance Practicing Meihua Quan Kung Fu can benefit your body not only physically but mentally as well. Every person is different. Meihua History Online Education “Ergophysiological and Physical Mechanics of Da Shi stance of Meihua Quan”  by Dr. Vasileios Ag. Drougas BSc. MSc. PhD. PhD (Phil) Scientific Positions:  Post Doctorate Researcher in the Applied Ergophysiology Laboratory, School of the Medicine University of Ioannina Greece.  Associated Researcher Laboratory of Knowledge & Intelligent Computing (KIC-LAB) Department of Computer Engineering T.E.I. of Epirus, Director & Researcher of Movement for Life Research Lab (MLRLab) Greece Professor in the Department of Computer Engineering T.E.I. of Epirus Research purpose The purpose of the research is to present the ergophysiological parameters and the forces applied at the stance Da Shi of the ancient style of Chinese Kung Fu Meihua Quan and promote rehabilitation results to many different parts of the upper human body. forces & da shi stance The Forces existed in the Human Body during the practice of the stance of Meihua Quan Da Shi (stance for Lungs and Large Intestine) are: Where the forces are (W) Is the Body Weight (Wf) The front force from the Weight (Wb) The back force from the Weight (Fup) The force from the backhand SF (Fup, Wb) the new Force between Fup, Wb (Nb) The back force from the ground (Nf) The front force from the ground (F1) The Front Hand Force to the looking direction (Φ) The Degrees between the Ηorizontal and Parallel Direction (PR) Traditional Chinese Medicine Meridians, Kinetics & Medical Benefits With the extension of the front hand, the Lung Meridian opens, and the Qi continues to flow from the hand to the inner body. The central place of the upper body opens, and the lungs work better and freely. Also, the Intestine Meridian opens, and the Qi flows better and more efficiently. The same happens with the backhand, which is up. The Yang Qi flows from the Large Intestine Meridian inside when the hand is up. Improves the Kinetics Meihua Quan Da Shi Stance is very important for the human body. It is indicated for orthosome, relieving the backbone relaxation and weight of the internal organs of the lower abdomen, as well as for restoration. The posture can decongest tensions in the intervertebral discs from hollows. It improves the kinetics by removing even possible lesions and concavities that may have formed. It is suitable for women who suffer from stasis and orthosomia because the breast forces the body to tilt forward or create a slight but evolving kyphosis. The kyphosis in conjunction with poor posture and torsion of large groups of vertebrae can cause scoliosis or enlarge it and twist the spine in a multi-layered form. It is beneficial for people who work in the office with scoliosis, kyphosis, reduced motor ability, and multiple sclerosis. It could be studied extensively and researched at the clinical level for multiple sclerosis. Medical Benefits The upward stretched hand helps to decompress the lumbar vertebrae and decompress the scalp muscle that is more severe in cases where cervical syndrome has been diagnosed and the other muscle groups involved in this area. Therefore, the posture is indicated for the interoperability of the cervical vertebrae area and in cases of severe stress. It helps to improve the balance and achieve greater perceptual capacity necessary for people engaged in specialized exercise and practice such as Wu Shu, gymnastics, and rhythmic gymnastics.  Achieving a more general balanced posture can help achieve internal balance and improve the ability to attach and enhance the characteristics of perception. But also for people who want to keep their bodies in good physical condition without burdening them with poor posture and lack of exercise. The study could also focus on further clinical research with more specific expertise. Meihua Quan Da Shi stance helps to circulate blood through the basic two femoral arteries and thus avoids thrombosis problems while helping to reduce blood pressure. It smoothest more easily from top to bottom and vice versa, so the lungs responsible for fluid flow in the body are not tired, and they work together more easily with the kidneys and the heart.

Forces & Joints Parallel placement of the pads ensures that the forces can be transferred to the same vertical plane without creating torque on the knee joints and the pelvis and ankle joints. It reduces the likelihood of joint damage to the joints and, in any case, reduces the possibility of meniscal injury due to knee motion in its natural form. The physical movement of the knee extension and retraction is the one that coincides with the movement of the two members associated with the knee joint, namely the femur and the tibia, at the same level without torsion. Torque Suppose one of the two forces has its carrier at a different level. In that case, torsion is created, and torque that is transferred to the joint can create a dependent lesion and the weight, i.e., force, to be applied to the joint at the points of contact of the forces. More weight entails a higher torque than higher tension to the joint. Similar results also occur with increasing torque. These results do not follow linear behavior but depend on each organism differently and on the ability of the individual to adapt to combined movements.

These forces do not change as long as the equilibrium is stable. Forces The body weight is broken down into two components, each of which has the direction of the quadriceps muscle and starts from the pelvic joints. These two forces must be in the same vertical plane and parallel to the frontal as not to create torsion in the joints through the pelvis since their application is typically transferred to the joints involved in maintaining balance in the joints. If this occurs, the joints are strained, and more burden is created on the connective muscles around it, resulting in chronic injuries that significantly burden the cartilage and delay joint articulation with synovial fluid, especially in the case of stress. This is important for more and more persistent stress in the long run. Posture The hand that stretches back and upright in a vertical position applies an internal force that can balance the spine vertically and has a point of application at the bottom of the spinal column of the lumbar vertebrae causing the coccyx to rotate outward. It should be especially considered when applying the macroscopic trajectories technique during the meditation period if this attitude is used for meditation and internal empowerment. This force unblocks the force that pushes the spine downwards due to its weight, which causes the upper part of the body, particularly the thoracic vertebrae area, which, by curvature, creates torsional moments with the effects of kyphosis and scoliosis. This power, along with the backward weight component, creates a new force whose address should be parallel to the front leg. And, of course, at the same vertical plane. Note that the level of the forefoot should be the same vertical as the weight and spine forces so that the balance is stable. The force (F1) is due to the thrust of the front hand. It is an internal force without producing work, so it only refers to the pulling force in the upper region of the vertebral column, a region of cervical vertebrae. It causes a correction of attitude. It reduces the likelihood of large mass accumulation in the shoulder area. So the forces of these large muscle groups force the mass of the upper body to distribute more harmoniously to the periphery. The spine is not burdened, and at the same time, muscle stretching is created while reducing the joint burden in the spinal column region. With the effect of the front hand power, the spine is kept vertical and torsional torques are avoided. Thus, it can also be used as an exercise to repair spinal problems such as scoliosis kyphosis and/or lordosis, especially in aging kinetic degradation.

But also to alleviate the pains of the bad posture, mainly due to the sedentary life and the appearance of a large amount of weight from the top of the vertebral column to the thoracic and cervical vertebrae.
