The energy of the body is a sphere

The energy of the body is a sphere. That is ideally so, although when the body is ill or injured, that sphere could be distorted.
How can you feel that the energy of your body is a sphere? First, think of the electrical energy that runs through a wire. It doesn't only run through the wire but it also makes a magnetic field, an energy field around it.
The earth is already round, but it's energy goes far into the atmosphere and beyond.
In our body is energy and it isn't only in our body but also beaming out from it. Just like the energy of the sun isn't only in the sun, but also can be felt on earth.
How can we feel that the energy of our body is a sphere? First, walk and try to move your legs not by moving your legs but by letting the energy of your body move your legs. This first step is to make you become more aware of the energy in your body.
Now focus on the warmth that you feel coming from the sun. You are still walking. The energy of the sun is always around us and in us. When we focus on the warmth of the sun, we can feel that it touches the energy of our body, and it also goes into our body.
To feel more of this energy, spread out your arms and legs like i did (left side of photo). When the sun is shining, you can feel very much more the energy of the sun.
Then close your arms and your legs and stand like i did at the right side of the photo. Suddenly you feel much less of the warmth of the sun.
Why is this? It is because as you spread your arms and legs, you expand the sphere of the energy of your body. The energy of the sun is not only touching and warming up your physical body, it is actually feeding the energy sphere of your body. That energy sphere expands when you stretch out your arms and legs. It doesn't only extend to the left and right, it also extends to the front and back.
You can learn to feel this.
And in fighting you can learn to work with this energy field and also to work on the energy sphere of someone else.
When we feel threatened by something, awkward and insecure, what do we do? We take on a fetus position, may even lay ourselves in bed covered by blankets. In that way we make our energy sphere smaller and so we can better cope with the negative energy that comes to us.
