調和肩臂活動，疏導心胸豁朗，增強目力，功日久其精力漸增。 肩臂舒展，筋節柔活。胸腹開朗，胃腸清利。

STEPS:

  1. Keep the feet apart at shoulder width and parallel
  2. Keep the arms hang down naturally
  3. Raise the left arm in front of the chest, palms facing down, fingers slightly apart
  4. Place the right hand in front of the stomach (1.5 inches below the naval), palms face up
  5. Bring hands close and pull them away - 3 times
  6. Raise the left arm straight up above the head, palm face-up
  7. Lower the right arm beside the right thigh, palm face-down
  8. Spread fingers outward 9 times and wait for ch'i to make arms stretch up and down for at least 30 seconds
  9. Repeat steps 3 - 8 with the opposite hand
1）原地不動（註：本節係左右二式，始由左手托天起，右手按地合），抬左手由左 側（五指張，手心向外，手掌外突）舉起，順著左肩膀高舉過頭上伸直胳膊，手背 對正頭頂，五指尖指甲對著右肩上，稍仰頭，目視手背；同時右手按地，五指張， 五指向前微伸，右手大姆指緊靠右大腿側。
2）心中默念九個數字，每默念一字，上下兩手『掌按指翹』一次，通身不可使 力，默數九畢，上下兩手先天氣自會顫抖，時間三十秒，多者聽便。
3）30秒後，即刻換右手托天，左手按地過程如（1）（2）之法，顫抖時間亦30秒。 顫抖時間亦30秒，初學者以30秒為原則，逐日酌量延長至一分鐘或更長。由於本式 有強效暢通肩臂筋脈之效，如感覺痠痛，可放下續練預備式調整之。

NOTES:
When in step 8, turn the eye balls to imaginary look inside as if you are staring at the tip of you skull. This is a common techique in ch'i kung (qi gong) called "intrnal sight".

眼球上翻﹐用意念看頭頂穴位﹐通稱"內視百會"。
