A paragraph from the chapter "Push Hands"

Different Energies must be dealt with differently: knowing how to deal with all different energies is the key to good Push Hands. Each style pushes differently, each individual has a different energy; their styles and energies could range from black to white, through every shade of grey. There is no one way of making the basic circles that is superior to the others; there are many variations, but all should follow the Taiji principles. Power, speed, agility and techniques are the physical factors; discipline, experience, trickery and heart are the internal factors. There is always going to be someone who is better than you in one or more aspects, so you must prepare and know how to deal with it, and learn from it.

Red Book by Dong Ying Jie (Tung Ying Jie)

Taiji can be practiced while walking, standing or lying down. Always use Taiji principles and work on Taiji, in any situation. For example, try to pick up a cup or glass using a lot of energy and then with very little. Pay attention while walking, are your steps heavy or light? Compare standing with knees locked and then bent, with hips relaxed or on one foot versus both. These are all excellent learning experiences.
