Biological Longevity

I first came across Tai Chi in Hong Kong. It was seven in the morning and I couldn't find a cup of coffee to reboot my early morning brain. So I decided to take a walk in the park and as I strolled I became mystified by the many local residents practising body movements to the enchanting lull of traditional Chinese music. I sat down and watched the slow movements of each person and then noticed a certain grace in poise and serentiy of being. There and then I resolved to learn more about Tai Chi and how to harness an energy potential that I did not know I had before.   For myself the study of Tai Chi became a personal journey and flow towards a sense of mental independence. Tai Chi, also known as Tai Chi Chuan, orignally was a form of Chinese martial art but today it is more of a process of control over the body and direction that is often practiced for its health benefits. It is characterized by slow and fluid movements that are coordinated with deep breathing and mental focus. Tai...

As a professional trader I learnt very quickly that I had to empty my mind and balance my spirit before I could sense the wind and it's direction. That's not as easy as one would think; in fact it took me many years of practise in order to cultivate a state of inner clam. But persistence pays it's dividends and in this sense I learnt how to tame my mind and ultimately to control my time. My search for inner calm and patience evolved from learning deep breathing excercises, fasting, finding solitude in nature and among other things, yes, learning to balance stones.     The art of balancing stones, also known as stone stacking or rock balancing, involves the careful arrangement of rocks or stones in a way that they can balance on top of each other without the use of any adhesive or support. It is a form of sculpture that requires a high level of patience, concentration, and skill. Stone balancing can be done with various types of stones, ranging from small pebbles to large bo...

    Biological longevity refers to the length of time an organism can live, based on its genetic makeup and biological processes. It is often used to describe the potential lifespan of a species or individual organism, and is influenced by a variety of factors including genetics, environmental conditions, and lifestyle choices. Biological longevity can vary widely between different species, with some organisms having relatively short lifespans of just a few days, while others can live for centuries. Additionally, while some aspects of biological longevity may be predetermined by genetics, other factors such as diet, exercise, and stress levels can also play a role in determining an organism's lifespan.
