Overviewing the movement structure and elements, from the perspective of the upward-downward and outward-inward functional activities of qi, it can be found that hands slowly lifting from the front of lower abdomen aims to guide clear qi of Dantian upward to the top of head and arms through abdomen and chest with the consciousness, and outward from palms to connect with qi of heaven. While feet standing on solid ground aims to lead turbid qi of Dantian downward to Yongquan point in the soles and outward to connect with qi of earth, forming the "open" state of training of qi with the unity of heaven, earth and men. Especially in the set action of "Holding the Hands High with Palms up", ascending and descending of qi movement reach the maximum unity of opposites of yin and yang, which can powerfully pull and stretch the body, affect and smooth qi of the meridians, and further adjust the life activities of human body. Thus it has guided upward-downward and outward-inward functional activities of qi in the tissues and structure of body, and the ascending and descending of qi movement, so that the lungs, liver and gallbladder, stomach, large intestine and other organs of the triple energizers are stretched, and qi and blood have also been adjusted accordingly. When fall down the arms, exercisers should relax the body section by section from waist to chest, from shoulders to arms, and from arms to hands. Both arms and hands separate naturally and fall down in the front of abdomen, so as to restore the pleuroperitoneal cavity after expansion, and relax the internal organs. At the same time, guide the essence of heaven inward from the top of head to Dantian through neck, chest and abdomen with consciousness, while guiding the essence of earth inward from Yongquan point in the soles to Dantian through legs and abdomen, to connect with qi of nature and man, forming the "closing" state of training of qi with the unity of heaven, earth and men. Thus, the internal organs and qi movement can be adjusted accordingly through the up and down of hands and the opening and closing of Dantian, as well as the loose and tightness of internal organs of the triple energizers, which plays a role in regulating the triple energizers. It is thus obvious that "Holding the Hands High with Palms up" has fully conformed to the holistic view of laws of unity of heaven and man, as well as the laws of the change of yin and yang, and upward-downward and outward-inward functional activities of qi, so as to enhance and promote the role of gasification, which is a simple and effective method to achieve the balance of yin and yang in the internal of body and between body and environment.
