三年太极 换我一颗“新心”

三年前，一場急性心肌梗塞，讓我的人生按下暫停鍵。
當時我的心臟射血分數（EF）只有39%，後背長期劇痛，焦慮也如影隨形。抱著試試看的心情，我走進心臟太極康復班，從此踏上一段改變生命的旅程。
感謝老師一路耐心指導，從太極6式、36式到83式，以及各種養生功法，帶著我一步一步扎實前進。
三年來，我幾乎每天練習一小時。
太極讓我明白，養生不只是動作，更是身心的修煉。我學會了：
● 鬆腰落胯，腳下有根，重心轉換穩而慢；
● 以意導氣，呼吸綿長，讓動作與氣息合一；
● 立身中正，虛實分明，不求快、不逞強，只專注當下。
三年後回診，我的EF提升到55%；困擾多年的後背疼痛消失了，體力明顯變好，走路也更穩、更有力。
更重要的是，透過呼吸與專注，我慢慢放下焦慮，找回久違的平靜。
太極不是速效藥，也不是奇蹟；它是日復一日的陪伴，是在緩慢與堅持中，讓身體恢復，讓心安住。
三年的太極，不只換來一顆更健康的心，也讓我找回健康、信心，和真正的自己。
願我的經歷，能為更多心臟病友與慢性病患者帶來希望，讓更多人從太極中受益，重拾健康人生。

Three Years of Tai Chi, and I Got a “New Heart”
Three years ago, an acute myocardial infarction put my life on pause.
At the time, my heart’s ejection fraction (EF) was only 39%, I had long-term severe pain in my back, and anxiety was always with me. With a “let’s give it a try” mindset, I walked into a cardiac Tai Chi rehabilitation class and began a journey that changed my life.
I am grateful to my teacher for the patient guidance לאורך the way, from Tai Chi 6 forms, 36 forms, to 83 forms, as well as various health-preserving exercises, leading me step by step with solid progress.
For the past three years, I have practiced for about one hour almost every day.
Tai Chi taught me that health preservation is not just about movement, but also about cultivating both body and mind. I learned to:
● relax the waist and sink the hips, keep a rooted stance, and shift my center of gravity steadily and slowly;
● guide qi with intention, breathe smoothly and continuously, and let movement and breath become one;
● stand upright and centered, clearly distinguish between empty and full, not rush, not force, and simply focus on the present moment.
Three years later, at my follow-up appointment, my EF had improved to 55%; the back pain that had troubled me for years was gone, my stamina had improved significantly, and I could walk more steadily and with greater strength.
More importantly, through breathing and focus, I gradually let go of my anxiety and regained a long-lost sense of calm.
Tai Chi is not a quick fix, nor is it a miracle; it is companionship day after day, and through slowness and persistence, it helps the body recover and the mind settle.
Three years of Tai Chi not only gave me a healthier heart, but also helped me regain my health, my confidence, and my true self.
I hope my experience can bring hope to more heart patients and people with chronic illnesses, and that more people can benefit from Tai Chi and reclaim a healthy life.

我的太極彎路

太極是健身養生的方法，這是大家普遍的認知。

我自己罹患心臟疾病至少25年，主要病症為心律不整及二尖瓣閉鎖不全。

因緣巧合，大約60歲時，我搬到吉隆坡與女兒同住。在女婿的邀請下，我參加了太極課程。沒想到第一次接觸就深深喜歡上太極，從此持續學習至今，已經78歲了。

多年來，我一直遵照醫師指示按時服藥，每年固定回雪梨接受心臟專科醫師檢查。每次回診，醫師都對我的身體狀況感到滿意，認為二尖瓣閉鎖不全能夠多年維持穩定，與我長期勤練太極有很大的關係。

當然，每個人的體質不同，我的經驗並不代表每個人練太極都能得到相同的效果。然而，我親身體會到，太極對促進身心健康、改善生活品質，確實帶來很大的幫助。

太極不僅是一種運動，更是一種養生之道。透過持續練習，它讓我培養規律的生活、平靜的心境，也增強了對健康的信心。這條太極之路，成為我人生晚年最珍貴的收穫之一。

My Tai Chi Journey

Tai Chi is widely recognized as a form of exercise that promotes health and well-being.

For over 25 years, I have lived with heart disease, specifically cardiac arrhythmia and mitral valve regurgitation.

By a fortunate turn of events, when I was around 60 years old, I moved to Kuala Lumpur to live with my daughter. My son-in-law invited me to join a Tai Chi class. From my very first lesson, I fell in love with Tai Chi and have continued practicing ever since. Today, I am 78 years old.

Throughout these years, I have faithfully taken my prescribed medication and returned to Sydney annually for follow-up examinations with my cardiologist. At every check-up, my specialist has been pleased with my condition. He believes that my mitral valve regurgitation has remained stable over the years, and that my consistent Tai Chi practice has played an important role in maintaining my health.

Of course, everyone’s body is different. My personal experience does not guarantee that others with heart disease will achieve the same results through Tai Chi. However, I can confidently say that Tai Chi has greatly improved my overall health, enhanced my quality of life, and brought me both physical strength and inner peace.

For me, Tai Chi is more than just exercise—it is a way of life. It has taught me discipline, balance, and mindfulness, helping me embrace each day with greater confidence, gratitude, and vitality.

我的太極彎路

年輕時，每個人多少都有些幻想。

就像童年唱過的歌，總嚮往著修得仙境；也曾幻想自己能像金庸小說中的張無忌一樣，練成一身絕世武功。因此，當女婿帶我去學太極時，雖然已年近六十，我依然興致勃勃，彷彿童年的夢想終於有了實現的機會。

女婿早在一年前就開始學習太極，對這位太極正宗門派的第四代傳人十分推崇，也因此讓我對這門功夫充滿期待，認真投入學習。

這個門派屬於太極拳中較為少見的「小架」系統，拳架精巧細膩，講究內勁的培養。然而，無論是哪一門哪一派，最基本的功夫始終離不開「站樁」。正所謂萬變不離其宗，唯有把基礎打穩，才能一步步領會太極真正的精髓。

My Detour in Tai Chi

When we are young, we all have our dreams and fantasies.

Like the songs of childhood that speak of reaching a heavenly realm, or the stories of Jin Yong’s legendary hero Zhang Wuji mastering extraordinary martial arts, I, too, dreamed of learning the ultimate martial arts.

So when my son-in-law invited me to learn Tai Chi, although I was already nearly sixty years old, I eagerly accepted. It felt as though a lifelong dream was finally within reach.

My son-in-law had been practicing for about a year and spoke very highly of his teacher, the fourth-generation successor of an authentic Tai Chi lineage. Inspired by his enthusiasm, I devoted myself to learning with great sincerity.

The style we practiced was the Small Frame (Xiao Jia), a relatively rare branch of Tai Chi. Although its movements are more compact and subtle than those of other styles, the foundation remains the same. The most fundamental practice is Zhan Zhuang (standing meditation). No matter how different the styles may appear, they all return to the same essential principles.

🌺一日一太極，健康一輩子🌺

幾年前，我因全身過敏、燥熱、筋骨痠痛等問題困擾許久，嘗試各種調養方式都未見明顯改善。因緣際會下，在吳師姐的推薦下參加了楊老師的博源養生太極體驗課，從此與太極結下不解之緣。

楊老師教的不只是太極拳，更是將太極融入生活：如何站、如何走、如何坐，透過站樁、靜坐與養生功法，學習身心平衡。過去不愛運動的我，常常腰痠背痛；如今每天練習太極，心情變得平靜愉悅，身體也在不知不覺中改善許多。

太極讓我學會放慢腳步，感受與大自然合而為一的喜悅。站樁時如大樹扎根大地，穩定而充滿生命力；靜坐時讓紛亂的心沈澱下來；打拳時則以平靜專注的心，帶動柔和流暢的動作。

太極最大的收穫，不只是強身健體，更是修心養性。它幫助我們：
促進氣血循環👍
增強身體柔軟度與平衡感👍
舒緩壓力與焦慮👍
提升專注力與內在平靜👍
培養持之以恆的毅力👍

常有人問：「練太極有什麼好處？」其實很難用幾句話說清楚。許多人練著練著，就愛上了太極。它不只是運動，更是一種生活方式、一種與自己對話的方法。

「一日練一日功，一日不練十日鬆。」太極貴在堅持。只要每天給自己一點時間，您將發現身體更健康，心靈更自在，生活更幸福。

感恩楊老師十年如一日的用心教導。老師不僅傳授太極，更教會我們如何在人生中找到平衡與安定。

🙏誠摯邀請您一起加入太極班
無論年齡大小、是否有運動基礎，都能從太極中受益。讓我們一起在柔和緩慢的動作中，找回健康、快樂與內心的寧靜。

一刻拳行，一生太極。
今天開始，就是最好的時刻。

🌺 Boyuan Health Tai Chi – Wendy’s Story 🌺

One Day of Tai Chi, A Lifetime of Health

A few years ago, I struggled with persistent allergies, excessive body heat, muscle and joint pain, and general discomfort. Despite trying many different approaches to improve my health, nothing brought significant relief. Fortunately, through the recommendation of Sister Wu, I attended a trial class at Boyuan Health Tai Chi with Dr. Yang. That decision became the beginning of a wonderful journey with Tai Chi.

Dr. Yang teaches much more than Tai Chi forms. He shows us how to integrate Tai Chi into everyday life—how to stand, walk, and sit with proper posture, while practicing standing meditation, seated meditation, and health-preserving exercises to cultivate balance in both body and mind. I was never fond of exercise and often suffered from back and muscle pain. Today, after practicing Tai Chi every day, I feel calmer, happier, and my health has gradually improved in ways I never expected.

Tai Chi has taught me to slow down and reconnect with nature. Standing meditation helps me feel like a deeply rooted tree—stable, grounded, and full of vitality. Meditation quiets my busy mind, while practicing the forms allows me to move with calmness, focus, softness, and flow.

The greatest gift of Tai Chi is not only physical fitness but also inner cultivation. It has helped me to:

* 👍 Improve blood circulation
* 👍 Increase flexibility and balance
* 👍 Reduce stress and anxiety
* 👍 Enhance concentration and inner peace
* 👍 Develop perseverance and self-discipline

People often ask me, “What are the benefits of practicing Tai Chi?” It’s difficult to explain in just a few words. Many people simply fall in love with it as they continue practicing. Tai Chi is not just an exercise—it is a way of life and a beautiful way to reconnect with yourself.

There is an old saying:
“Practice one day, gain one day’s progress; skip one day, and ten days of effort begin to fade.”

The true value of Tai Chi lies in consistency. By dedicating just a little time each day, you’ll discover a healthier body, a more peaceful mind, and a happier life.

I am deeply grateful to Dr. Yang for his unwavering dedication over the past ten years. He has not only taught us Tai Chi but has also shown us how to find balance, harmony, and inner peace in life.

🙏 I warmly invite you to join our Tai Chi class.

No matter your age or fitness level, everyone can benefit from Tai Chi. Together, let us rediscover health, happiness, and inner tranquility through its gentle, flowing movements.

One moment of practice, a lifetime of Tai Chi.

The best time to begin is today. 🌿
