Workplace Tai Chi

It’s very effective for stress reduction and a wide variety of heath conditions, particularly as it’s so accessible – it’s easy to learn and quickly facilitates a state of relaxation, serenity and poise.

While there are many individual styles of Tai Chi, in common are gentle flowing movements integrated with breath and awareness, which is a potent combination common to practices that cultivate a state of inner peace. This alchemy creates greater internal energy (known as qi) raising your vitality, capacity for mindfulness and a general feeling of ‘loosening up’ and relaxation.

Harmony of the inner and outer self is facilitated by the integration of mind and body and Tai Chi promotes this alongside cultivating our life energy (qi) to flow more smoothly. Since what happens outside of us in our life is a reflection of what happens internally, cultivating inner peace is a fundamental transformational tool!

Although it looks gentle from the outside, there is also a tremendous inner strength being built – this is our ‘Yin’ – and since our ability to go out and move in the world – our ‘Yang’ – is dependent on having sufficient inner reserves, it makes it a fantastic practice for those living busy urban lives which erode our quiescence!

Other fundamental benefits for the workplace are that it enhances your qualities of calmness and receptivity – benefitting your ability to process information and manage your relationships within your team more effectively.
