It all begun when I decided to forget about arms, legs, techniques and everything else that requires the use of the thinking mind. Instead I focused on my own center of mass, the origin of all movements.
The result of this was relaxed body and movements, deeper breathing, calmness, feeling of control, and this sensation that time moves slower that comes with expansion.
To achieve mastery, the most important thing that needs to be practiced is to quickly shift to this state in any situation and to increase the duration of the focus. This might as well be the only thing that needs to be practiced. Mastery is achieved when you are able to maintain this focus for as long as you would like.
At the moment I do not know whether the point of focus is of any importance or if the essential thing is just to stop unnecessary brain activity, an effect of any focus. Unnecessary brain activity is not just thought processes of attack or defense, but also tension in mussels. Furthermore, tension in mussels also include obstruction to efficient heart and lung activity.
