From Principle One: When faced with a child who is testing your resolve, relax and yield in the manner of water. Absorb the child's energy without moving. Sink your strength into the earth with the relaxing breath. Allow the child to bounce off your energy, discovering without harm the nature of your power. Tai Chi teacher Ron Sieh says, 'Put everything underground where it can support you. Strewn anxiously throughout your body, it can only distract you.' This is called sinking power, and it's a good power to develop. It can help us master all the principles in this book. Here's how.
