Exercise
Your Qi energy tends to stagnate when you are physically inactive. Long term stagnated Qi energy can cause body pain (muscle, joints etc) in minor case, or develop other illnesses. Exercise can help prevent Qi energy from stagnating, thereby helping the body maintain physical and mental vitality. For maximum benefit, exercise should be done on a regular basis.
The benefits of regular exercise include:
- Improving overall fitness, which makes it easier to perform daily activities. - Feeling less tired - Improving flexibility in muscles and joints - Preventing bone loss and osteoporosis - Improving physical appearance and sense of well-being - Reducing stress and tension - Improving concentration - Refreshing the mind and spirit - Enhancing self-esteem
There are many forms of exercise to choose. It is important to choose ones that you will enjoy doing regularly and from which you will benefit the most. For some people, slow paced activities are most suitable, while others thrive on strenuous, high-energy workouts.
Appropriate types of exercise can be found on your own or with the help of a professional trainer. If you have medical concerns, it is important to consult with your health care practitioner prior to beginning any new exercise programs and to always be aware of your physical limitations in order to avoid unnecessary injury.
