拦手拳 of self-improvement and the determination of human beings to conquer
nature, but also embodies the essence of Taoist thought of harmonious
unity between humans and nature, balance between yin and yang, self-cul-
tivation, and the pursuit of the unity of nature and human beings. At the
same time, the Lanshouquan emphasizes the combination of practice and

shouquan has a lot self-evident benefits for practitioners.
