About this title

Synopsis

Office & Home Tai Chi is a concise and efficient regimen. Twelve minutes of exercise in the office or living room is enough to ease fatigue and promote body function and potential.
Office and Home Tai Chi includes the Limber Up Exercise and Xing Qi Tai Chi - Moving Meditation Exercise. It combines physical exercise and therapy for modern people to keep fit in the office or at home. Office and Home Tai Chi is based on the ancient Chinese health care theory, including the running laws of blood, Qi (氣) Vital Energy Flow, and Jing Luo (氣) system-Meridian and Collateral Channels.

It is well known that Tai Chi has excellent health benefits as an essential part of Chinese Kung Fu. However, the lengthy traditional Tai Chi routines are complicated and limited by space and time for most individuals. People have to spend much time remembering movements and understanding their true meaning. So, it is less suitable for active groups of young and middle-aged people. The tedious routine and the cultural differences are eliminated, and no longer obstacles to learning Tai Chi.

Office and Home Tai Chi includes beautiful illustrations, including historical drawings of The Meridian System. Traditional Chinese Medicine created a map of these routes through which Qi (氣) (vital life energy) flows to every body part. This flow of Qi energy helps blood flow and maintains the balance of Yin and Yang. It also increases immunity against illness and disease. The Xing Qi Tai Chi exercises demonstrated in the book are closely tied to the Meridian System and include self-massage of critical Acupuncture Points.

Office and Home Tai Chi has presented these ideas in the US since 2013 in a form easier to understand and practice when space and time are limited. Office and Home Tai Chi helps people work out effectively in an office or at home to improve their health and immunity as an indoor exercise daily. It may also be helpful in case of a public health emergency or crisis.

Office and Home Tai Chi has removed tedious movements and kept the most important and worthiest elements. Furthermore, it incorporates Tu Na (吐納) Breathing Exercises and Moving Meditation, strengthening the muscles and bones, and even nourishing the viscera (various organs in the body).
