Martial arts are not only good for self-defense, but are also beneficial for health and exercise. Stress can damage our physical and [url=http://www.moncleroutletosterblade.com]moncler outlet[/url] mental health and posture. Tai Chi meditation can be a great way to reduce and relieve the effects of stress.
To that end, here's a simple Yang style Tai Chi exercise [url=http://www.turtle.or.jp/cgi-bin/aska.pl/otto/kreger/dzhenet/tiuson/tipi/liudey/16/tipov/lichnosti/opredelyaius%2520%5B0]hollister outlet sale SAGITTA[/url] to relieve stress. In fact, it is the first move in the Yang Style basic Tai Chi Chaun form:
1) We need to reduce heart rate and improve body flexibility and communication. In a quiet area, preferably a park or outside somewhere, stand up straight, get a broom stick (or stand with your back to a straight tree) [url=http://www.mnfruit.com/doudounemoncler.php]moncler pas cher[/url] and push all parts of your spine against it (especially your lower back and upper back around the neck) and stay as straight as that as long as you can. If you fall out of that posture, which you will, try to regain it. Don't force it. You shouldn't be sweating too hard or exerting yourself too much to do this. If you are, take it easier until you can do it naturally. This is all about improving your posture, which has numerous health benefits, including helping you cope with and reduce stress.
2) Stare blankly off into space directly in front of you, focus on nothing. Or, if this seems difficult, or if it helps you to relax, close your eyes.
3) With knees slightly bent and back straight, slowly raise your arms, wrists up, fingers down, and take a deep, slow breath in. Feel the air going down to in-between your hips, sink on your knees when you do this, keep your back straight. Bring your arms up to your eye level, perhaps a little higher.
4) Turn your palms over like you are pushing someone (ever so slightly), move your hands down back to your [url=http://www.mquin.com/gzparis.php]giuseppe zanotti pas cher[/url] sides like you are smearing a [url=http://www.mxitcms.com/abercrombie/]abercrombie milano[/url] wall in front of you, breath slowly out from the [url=http://dxcz.bseduc.com/E_GuestBook.asp]abercrombi[/url] hips (imagine there is a rubber inflatable tire in your hips you are inflating and deflating with every breath).
5) Stand still for a moment and focus on the breathing and keeping your back straight, [url=http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/170693034119]abercrombie pas cher Automobi[/url] shoulders [url=http://www.mnfruit.com/airjordan.php]jordan pas cher[/url] down, knees bent. Your lower body should feel like it is sinking. Your crown should feel like it is rising. Keep your back as straight as possible, move back to that tree if you have to, as you will undoubtedly go back to your normal, terrible, posture. This will put undue stress on your back (and according to some chiropractors) even your organs.
6) Repeat for about 10 minutes.
This chi gong like meditation exercise should be a bit arduous at first, especially if you [url=http://www.ilyav.com/uggsoldes.php]boots ugg pas cher[/url] have bad posture or weaker legs. But the longer you do it, and the more often you practice it, the more you will relieve stress. Do the breathing fully and slowly.
You can do this exercise anywhere. When my boss used to [url=http://www.thehygienerevolution.com/barbourparis.php]barbour paris[/url] bug me at work, I used to sneak into [url=http://www.achbanker.com/hollister.php]hollister[/url] the lunch room and do this meditation for about 10 minutes. When I was done, all the stress was gone and I was totally relaxed. With practice, you can be too.
