Tai Chi Easy™ is a carefully developed method and approach to Tai Chi and Qi (Chi) Cultivation that makes it easy, beneficial and fun from the very beginning. The student does not have to devote years to learning the traditional 108 movement form or even the shortened (24, 36, 42 movement) form to enjoy the calming emotional and health benefits of Tai Chi (Taiji).

Tai Chi Easy™ is not "just" an exercise program that uses gentle activities to increase joint flexibility, circulation, range of motion and to maintain muscle strength. As a practice that Harvard calls "meditation in motion," the slow movements and mindset of Tai Chi can be used to manage stress levels by creating a a heightened sense of self awareness, mindfulness, empowerment and choice. The mind-body practices of Tai Chi Easy™ soothe and rewire the nervous system and increase cognitive and brain plasticity.

There are four fundamental components - gentle body movement, focused breathing, self-applied massage, and relaxing meditation - vitality enhancement qigong techniques rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), adapted for use while seated, standing, and laying down. In addition, there are five Tai Chi forms, performed from seated, standing, and walking postures. This adaptability creates a profound life-long took-kit useful for recovering from illness or injury, improving health, or maintaining wellness.

Research is confirming that Tai Chi and Qigong, Chinese wellness practices for Mind-Body health, prevent and heal disease and relieve pain. "Tai chi is often described as 'meditation in motion,' but it might well be called 'medication in motion.'

And you can get started even if you aren't in top shape or the best of health. More good news about Tai Chi from the Qigong Institute.

Tai Chi Easy™ is designed to improve the quality of life for people of all ages– whether well or unwell. This includes those who may be dealing with disease, chronic pain and health conditions, limited mobility, deficient immune systems, anxiety or depression. Using simplified Tai Chi based on the four major recognized styles of Tai Chi, this program is straightforward and highly adaptable resulting in empowerment in self-care and self management skills.

This style includes steps and exercises that improve mobility, breathing and relaxation. The movements don't require deep bending or squatting, which makes it easier and more comfortable to learn. In addition, the instruction includes seated and standing stationary versions of all the movements. This encourages people of all levels and abilities to learn and participate.

Ascent Wellness Does Tai Chi Easy

The program itself consists of 10 movements — 5 basic and 5 advanced — a warm up and a cool down, self-massage, breath exercises, and meditation. Once becoming familiar with the movements and exercises, the program is designed to provide continual challenge by gently "holding" postures and being conscious of weight-shifting and limb position, including doing the movements in different sequence, such as reversing the direction of the movements.

Students and practitioners develop their abilities to focus and concentrate in a deep state of relaxation through breath practices, movement, meditation and self-massage providing simple, effective self-care skills that can be used throughout life and well into the "successful aging" process.
