in thread (OT) How do you relax and "recharge"?

Ibuki (or Ikibuki) is the combination of go (hard;Sanchin) and ju (Soft;Tensho) breathing of Goju-ryu. Sanchin would be like Tiger or Lion's breath (tensed and ready to attack/defend at any moment) while Tensho would be Dragon's breath (subtle with a hidden power waiting to trap and release).

    IC, thank you very much!

    Unfortunately, Tiger or Lion breathing at work would be too conspicuous; and I can't always get away to do them someplace else, like maybe outside.
    I have done Dragon breathing at my desk without attracting too much attention.
