Qigong, Tai Chi & Yoga exercises can be helpful in reducing anxiety and depression by calming the mind and improving the flow of qi (energy) in the body.
Here are some exercises that we like to practice:
Inner Smile Meditation: This exercise involves imagining a smile in your mind and directing it towards different parts of the body. It helps to cultivate a positive attitude and release negative emotions, such as anxiety and depression.
Eight Brocades Qigong: This exercise involves a series of eight movements that help to open up the energy channels in the body and improve circulation. It can also help to reduce stress and anxiety.
As with any new exercise routine, it’s important to consult with a qualified qigong instructor or healthcare practitioner before beginning.
