A Tai Chi and Chi Gung-based programme of exercise. The emphasis of the text is to encourage a regular, daily routine as part of a pro-active approach to health and well-being without the need to understand complex Chinese or Western medical theory. The graded format of the book enables use of the exercises as effective stand-alone sets of Chi Gung and the two styles of Tai Chi training forms offered are brief and easy to learn. Together the forms provide a complete exercise routine to contribute to health, well-being and relaxation. The programme is not derived from mere theory nor empirical research, but from exercises practised on a regular basis by the author and friends to useful and beneficial effect. This new edition provides an additional seated sequence, adapted and taught by the author for care home residents and seated office workers. The format is suitable as a preparation for those wishing to enter into a more in-depth study of Tai Chi with a qualified teacher. An extended appendix provides clarification of important points such as mindfulness in movement and briefly emphasises the importance of a balanced diet, etc., and taking responsibility for one's own health, thus reducing over-reliance on medical interventions.
