Tai Chi Chih

Tai Chi Chih is a moving meditation. It was developed by an American martial artist called Justin Stone back in the 1970s. It's comprised of 19 movements and one pose. All of which are very accessible as they are all done slowly and gently like moving through heavy air. Although it was developed by a martial artist, Tai Chi Chih is NOT a martial art. It is purely for health and wellbeing purposes.

Regular practice can give many benefits, such as:

  • Increased sense of joy

  • Better sleep

  • Improved blood pressure regulation

  • Strengthened joints and ligaments

  • Increased calm and focus

  • Improved balance and flexibility

  • Reduction in anxiety

  • Enhanced creativity

And many more....

These are just some of the reported benefits. Benefits vary between individuals. Why not give it a go and see what it can do for you?

"I had a stroke in February 2020 which affected me mentally. I became very depressed and suffered with anxiety. After being advised by the stroke team I decided to try Mindfulness. I was very sceptical at first but Emma put me at ease and explained everything. I did the full course and have found all the coping mechanisms that I was shown have really helped me through some difficult times. I do some meditations each day. If I find that I am falling out of routine or needing extra help, I know I can always book a one off session to get me back on track."
