Tai Chi Blueprints for Healthiness

For a lot of practitioners the focus in doing them isn't, most importantly, martial, but as a meditative exercising for the body. In Chinese philosophy and medicine their lives the concept of 'chi', a life force that animates the body. Among the professed aims of Tai Chi is to further the circulation of this 'chi' inside the body, the notion being that by doing so the health and life force of the individual are enhanced. This 'chi' mobilizes in patterns that are closely related to the nervous and vascular system and therefore the notion is closely affiliated with that of the practice of acupuncture and additional oriental healing arts.
