Tai Chi uses calming, structured movement to counteract the stress of living in today's fast and pressured society. Our minds are constantly stimulated and strained by work, relationships, money and hundreds of other distractions, and Tai Chi appears as a natural way that gives us inner peace and joy. Even when sleeping the mind remains active, and an over stressed mind makes mistakes and interferes with healthy functioning of the body. Only by entering the state of tranquility which Tai Chi can give you will your mind and body rest thoroughly.
