Finding appropriate place for practice is the same like finding a suitable apartment or a house – a place where you feel comfortable and enjoy being there. When you are choosing an apartment or office you probably have set of guidelines that helps you make a final decision: is it central or peripheral, near the road or near a park. For finding a general good place for practice it is important to follow the basic principles:
• Practice outdoors
• Find a place amongst trees and near water
• It is better to practice on a soil rather than concrete
According to Feng Shui, an ancient Chinese wisdom that helps us interpret how we relate to our environment and how our environment influences us everything is made of energy, is interconnected, and is constantly changing. Finding balance with the environment and adjusting the living, working or practicing space according to basic principles of Feng Shui
I personally find practicing in Beijing's Temple of Sun truly an amazing experience. The history of the whole place is filled with energy of Emperors that walked on the same soil, rituals and life style from 400 years ago. As the Temple of Sun persisted in its existence, it now serves as the retreat of thousands of people who come here daily to practice taichi, sing, dance, walk backwards, scream (release energy), rub back against trees, play badminton or play with children.
