Tai chi is a mind-body practice often used to enhance mental and physical health. Although it was initially developed as a martial art, it's commonly practiced as a form of moving meditation. Many practitioners of tai chi use this technique to reduce stress, as well as to improve posture, balance, flexibility, and strength. In addition, tai chi is said to boost mood, alleviate pain, strengthen the immune system, and improve heart health.
Originally used for self-defense up to 2,000 years ago, tai chi has taken off in the workout world. When tai chi is performed correctly, you will enjoy several overall improvements in health and mental well-being. Tai chi is considered a higher level of Qigong and can be described as a moving meditation technique.
