Yoga has been found to be a helpful stretching, breathing and meditative exercise with health benefits ranging from stress reduction to carpal tunnel relief, as well as relief to patients with chronic health conditions including diabetes, cancer, obesity, heart disease and stroke.

Tai Chi is often described as “meditation in motion.” It is a gentle, slow motion exercise similar to Yoga. Tai Chi’s stress reduction effect is supported by the physical evidence: lower blood pressure, decreased joint and back pain, increased flexibility and balance, and boosts in energy and immunity.
