Bill Douglas has a low cost alternative to expensive health care costs. Even Harvard University agrees with him. They say his solution has health benefits for people with arthritis, breast cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure, Parkinson’s, and even low bone density.
Bill Douglas is a tai chi instructor. He believes the ancient Chinese art is the best medicine for the chronic stress that is rampant in modern society. According to the CDC, up to 90% of doctor visits are stress related.
Douglas is so sure that tai chi is a long term health solution that will save the US trillions of dollars, that soon he will be making a presentation to the National Institutes of Health. Part of his plan is to take tai chi into hospitals, senior centers and public schools.
The beauty of tai chi he says is that, “you can get started even if you aren’t in top shape, or the best of health.”
Tai chi is a self-paced system of gentle physical exercise and stretching. The slow graceful movements are based on a series of postures that flow into the next without pausing. Harvard has gone so far as to call it, “medication in motion.” Not a bad endorsement…
It’s easy to find tai chi instructors in most communities. Check out adult ed classes, private studios, and community centers for beginner classes. With tai chi, it’s never too late to start your own personal health care reform.
