Video: 8-Minute Daily Tai Chi Exercise Series

This short video demonstrates some basic Tai Chi movements that stretch and strengthen, improve balance, and stimulate brain and heart function. They are very gentle and flowing movements, and are great for seniors, stress relief, or just loosening up tight muscles after a long day of work, or to increase energy throughout the body to start off the day. His instruction is clear and simple, helping you understand exactly how to perform each movement.

Obviously this is different from most of our hard-hitting weekly workouts, but it is equally helpful to include this type of movement into your daily exercise routine! Tai Chi helps build holistic health throughout the whole body.

Video: Qigong Exercises for Energy & Stress Relief

I have been practicing Qigong (pronounced "Chi-Gung," or "Chi-Kung" - basically meaning energy mastery, or energy practice) for a couple of years now. It is a great stretching workout that takes your muscles, bones, and joints through their full range of motion, so it's great to do every day, or as a warmup for another workout.

But don't think of it as just your typical "workout"; like TaiChi, Quigong was designed as energy work, and it challenges the mind as much as the body. It is excellent for reducing stress and increasing your energy. Try this short exercise series anytime you need a quick pick-me-up, or use it to warm up or cool down after your favorite workout. It may just become one of your favorite parts of your day!

This short video demonstrates several different Qigong exercises, so you can see what it's like. If you enjoy these exercises, you can pick up my favorite DVD set on this unique method of physical and mental exercise at www.rocksolidvitality.com.
