MENTAL and EMOTIONAL HEALTH ARE BETTER WITH TAI CHI

The world becomes more stressful everyday.  WE ALL KNOW THAT.

But Tai Chi can make a big difference.

When we make an energy ball, or sleep like a lion it feels so good.

The NCCIH (National Center for Complementary an Integrative Health)

states that the State of Mental, Emotional and Behavioral Health in children and youth is one of their highest priorities.  They are looking for a comprehensive, integrative approach.  Healthy mental, emotional and behavioral development is a critical foundation for a productive adulthood.  In a 2009 report the case was made for prevention and promotion of interventions.

BUT in the next decade the rate of depression, suicide and self-harm has been increasing.  The proportion of adolescents experiencing a major depressive episode increased from 8.7 % to 11.3 %.  Read the report here.

While studies and conferences go on, we can do something right away to improve the emotional health of children and youths. We can start teaching Tai Chi at home, in schools, and at clubs.  We can use Tai Chi to begin the day calmly, or before a test to focus better, and when we are upset and it is hard to fall asleep.  Almost anytime is a good time for Tai Chi.
