Tai Chi for Aging with Strength and Tranquility

Practiced in the East for centuries, the flowing movements of tai chi have been known to promote health and inner harmony. According to Chinese medicine, the benefits of this ancient martial art come from unblocking and encouraging the proper flow of chi, the energy force that flows throughout the body. Western medicine hasn’t typically addressed the body’s “energy forces,” but that might be about to change. According to the 2019 Harvard University Women’s Health Watch, “tai chi is often described as meditation in motion, but it might well be called medication in motion,” thanks to its uses in prevention and treatment of health issues.
