The stillness in each tai chi step creates a profound inner stillness... of cells healing.
Mom's thoughts on Tai Chi Benefits
In Wu Form we move in a smaller circular radius, thus building up our internal, “chi” energy. And like my teachers, Mr. and Mrs. Chow, I first teach my students the square form... the foundation of how to move the "chi" energy throughout the body.
Tai Chi isn’t an “easy fix,” it’s an eastern, inner journey to understanding the following:
- Learning a new, movement map that engages the brain becoming mindful of the steps being taught.
- Building strength on both sides of the body as we often favor one side moving throughout our lives.
- Creating “soft form” as we release muscle tension.
- Bringing arms into supported, skeletal, postures that never strain the shoulders nor neck.
- Releasing inner-stagnation that’s often held in our bodies and gently opening the fountain-of-chi energy as it trickles, softly through the organs, muscles, ligaments, and bones.
- Elevating those smiling T-cells that love to boost the immune system.
- The para-sympathetic nervous system is invited to relax the body and calm the mind.
- Journeying… as a group into moving meditation aka" Tai Chi Land."
- It keeps you in the Springtime of Life walking one with balance and grace… physically, emotionally and spiritually.
- Tai Chi takes patience, time and commitment however, in the end it doesn't matter since we also learn how to warp time and space in a most delightful way. Visit my wellness blog at: momscosmicdiner.blogspot.com
