Hello,

I know that Hsing Yi practice of the Five fists is supposed to have health benefits.
Each fist is reputed to stimulate a specific organ.

My question is regarding the Santi Shi posture or Trinity Pole Standing.
Santi is the posture which originates the fists, perhaps I am not explaining it properly but essentially it is the standing posture taken in the beginning and the fists move from that posture.

Anyhow, I am wondering if there are any reported health benefits from performing just the Santi or even just doing Standing Postures such as Zhan Zhuang.

I am genuinely curious as I have started practicing the Santi this past week and it seems that I have seen a decrease in my blood sugar levels. I am wondering if this is related or simply a coincidence. Although, I have not made any changes to my diet or exercise and actually have taken less of my medication.

Any input would be appreciated.
