Benefits of practicing calligraphy
1. It can cultivate observation, analysis and expression skills.
Complete the writing process of each word by observing and analyzing the shape characteristics, writing methods, and formation effects of horizontal, vertical, left, sodium, and fold. If things continue like this, the author's observation, analysis, and expression skills will all be developed.
2. Develop the qualities of being detailed, focused, calm and persistent.
As Mr. Guo Moruo once said: "Write the words very well, very regularly, very clean, and easy to recognize. It is good to develop such a habit, which can make people careful and easy to read. Focus your attention and be good at taking care of others. It is easy to be careless and careless. Practicing writing can gradually alleviate these problems."
Why can learning calligraphy make people more careful and more focused? Because calligraphy is a good activity. If you want to write, you must absorb, be still, carefully observe the word structure, and give priority to the brain, eyes, and hands to accurately control the sequence of strokes. Therefore, as time goes by, a person's psychological quality can be subtly changed and a calm and calm habit can be developed. Once students develop a good quality of learning, it is very useful for learning and the development of other courses in the future.
3. It can cultivate aesthetic taste.
Because Chinese characters are composed of lines, they have the aesthetic value of text boxes. Calligraphy is really a structure based on density, the weight of the stippling brush. Slowly express the description of emotion and artistic conception.
In the process of practice, first of all, we must write in the correct order, pay attention to the rules of the strokes, and write the first character correctly, standardly, neatly, and beautifully; then, learn to appreciate through names and calligraphy skills, Gradually feel the beauty of Chinese characters, establish a correct aesthetic concept, and know what beauty is and how to be more beautiful; finally, the influence of practitioners will stimulate the pursuit and desire for beauty.
4. The development of healthy personality and the courage to innovate.
Because the life of art lies in individuality, all kinds of beauty and generosity that have always been accepted in this field will not deny the beauty of love and documents. While learning to appreciate and accept others in the United States, people can learn from each other according to their own preferences and grow their thoughts in the United States; secondly, innovation and the pursuit of individuality have been promoted in this field.
A painter once said: "To bring into full play the greatest power of tradition, you must also bring out the greatest courage!" Playing means learning from others and hoping to stand on the shoulders of giants until As time plays out, there will be a new self. All innovation begins with imitation. Therefore, copying calligraphy in research and inheritance means inheriting and learning from innovation. Through copying, we accumulate a lot of rich materials in the brain, paving the way for future creation. Every creation is a leap from quantity to quality. Whether it is creative success, more or less implies a unique style. Therefore, the creative process from copying to actual creation also moves from imitation to innovation unconsciously.
5. Love for Chinese culture.
Maybe in the eyes of many people, Chinese characters are written symbols that carry information. In fact, Chinese characters are also a kind of culture, because every Chinese character is full of wisdom and the essence of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. It also embodies the spirit of a nation.
In daily practice, explore the characters' methods and study the story books learned by calligraphy masters. In this way, it can not only stimulate students' interest in learning, but also cultivate their love for national culture
6. Play a role in health preservation.
Many medical scientists believe that calligraphy and Qigong are closely intrinsically linked. Chinese calligraphy can also promote physical and mental health, make people energetic, and prolong life. Practicing calligraphy is very similar to the "three adjustments" of Qigong:
1) Adjusting the body - posture: When writing, you must adjust your body posture. Chinese calligraphy attaches great importance to writing postures. It requires feet to be shoulder-width apart, waist to be loose and shoulders to be wide, chest to be lifted and back to be straight, hands to be naturally flat, left hand to press the paper into an arc, right hand to hold the pen. The posture should be relaxed and natural, which is conducive to the muscles of the whole body. Relaxation of blood vessels and nerves, thereby promoting tranquility.
2) Tune the mind - enter tranquility: practice calligraphy because you need to concentrate on reading and copying the calligraphy, thereby adjusting the mental state and focusing the mind.
3) Breathing adjustment - adjusting breathing: When practicing calligraphy, it is required to breathe freely, deeply and evenly. Do not hold your breath or consciously suppress breathing to promote the regulation of cardiopulmonary function.
In short, calligraphy can explain the past and connect the present, and cultivate sentiments. It is like a pastoral scene in a knowledge metropolis, natural, simple, and quiet, giving people unlimited beautiful space.
