Tai Chi

The Mayo Clinic calls Tai Chi “a gentle way to fight stress” and “meditation in motion” because it helps reduce stress and anxiety. Tai Chi also helps increase flexibility and balance.

And, unlike some forms of exercise, many people who practice Tai Chi find it enjoyable and relatively easy to get started with!
