Tai Chi
The tradition of Tai Chi dates back to at least the 15th century in
China. This practice is based on the belief that balancing the opposite
forces in the body (known as yin and yang) will encourage the flow
of chi (energy) through the body to promote health. You may also
find tai chi appealing because it's inexpensive and requires no special
equipment. You can do tai chi anywhere, including indoors or outside.
You can do tai chi alone or in a group class. If you're looking for a way
to reduce stress, consider tai chi (TIE-CHEE). Tai chi is an ancient
Chinese tradition that, today, is practiced as a graceful form of exercise.
It involves a series of movements performed in a slow, focused manner
and accompanied by deep breathing. Originally developed for self-
defense, tai chi has evolved into a graceful form of exercise that's now
used for stress reduction and a variety of other health conditions.
Often described as meditation in motion, tai chi promotes serenity
through gentle, flowing movements.
