有個溫哥華學員問我：「冬天天氣比較潮濕、寒冷，這種氣候適合在戶外走八卦嗎？」
.
答:「戶外也能走。」
我的個人修行經驗，八卦內功最好的方法是，一年四季都在戶外。
「夏練三暑，冬練三寒。」經過自然界四季溫度的淬煉，一整年每天都不間斷地練習，淬煉出毅力、粹煉出體力、淬煉出十八般好武藝，那麼能量增多、疾病就可能減少，才能健康長壽。
.
而淬鍊是什麼意思呢?
「淬煉」好比古代鑄劍，把鋼鐵在這個爐火裡頭燒得紅紅的，拿出來用鐵錘砸「打鐵、打鐵」嘛，它才會堅韌。砸完了再燒紅，之後再往那個冷水裡頭猛地放進去，通過這種忽熱、忽冷的方法，也叫「淬鋼」，它那個鋼化就出來了，它那個刀口就會非常鋒利。
.
那一般人說我很難堅持下來？我們若想能夠健康地生活和工作呢，那你就要付出一點體力。因為，無論一個方法有多好，你不練，那功夫永遠是功夫、你還是你。
.
所以，千萬記住啊，能夠撐得下來整一年的「夏練三暑，冬練三寒。」
就是三九天、大夏天，大寒天，都能夠堅持下來，人就會結實了。
.
如果，淬煉能讓我們更茁壯、更健康，那麼淬練便是值得的！

A Vancouver student asked me, “The winter weather is relatively humid and cold; is such a climate suitable for the outdoor practice of Energy Bagua?”
Answer: “One can still practice Energy Bagua outdoor.”
From my personal experience in cultivation, the best approach to practice Energy Bagua is to do so outdoors all-year round, across the four seasons.
As the saying goes, 「practice through the three heat spells in summer, and three cold spells in winter」. After the all-year, uninterrupted daily practices, the rigors from “quenching” over naturally varied temperature of the four seasons will help instill perseverance, foster physical strength, and result in mastery of martial art skills. The outcome is the corresponding increase in energy, kept diseases at bay and maintain health and longevity.
And what’s “quenching”?
“Quenching” is used in the ancient process of making swords. In it, iron and steel are heated in the furnace till red-hot, taken out and hit repeatedly with the hammer so as to temper (harden) it. Thereafter, it is re-heated to red-hot and abruptly plunged into cold water. This method of subjecting the metal to sudden-hot, and sudden-cold temperatures, is called “quenching”, and it tempers the metal, drawing out its utmost strength, and ensuring it will be a very sharp sword.
What if someone says it’s difficult to persevere in practice? Well, if we want to be able to live and work healthily, then you will have to summon some small amount of effort. This is because no matter how good a method is, if one does not practice, then he/ she will not gain from the kung fu (skills), and will not benefit or experience any improvement.
So please bear in mind, if one can conscientiously adhere to the saying, “practice through the three heat spells in summer, and three cold spells in the winter”, and persevere through the year, including the hot summer and cold winter days, one will be fit.
If “quenching” can make us stronger and healthier, then this “quenching” is a worthy form of practice!
