A secret to living longer!

Hello to all my students and friends. If I told you that you could improve your overall health by doing something that is easy and fun, and only takes 20 minutes a day, would you do it? This simple exercise will strengthen your legs - improve your balance - increase your circulation - improve your sense of well being - relax your mind and reduce stress - and improve your posture and strengthen your bones. I bet my students have guessed. Start the day with doing "Embrace the Moon" t'ai chi for a warm up, then add a 15- to 20-minute relaxed but brisk walk. Can you imagine? All this for just 30 minutes of your time. Plus it can be fun.......Try it! you will like it!

Tai chi thoughts: I became 65 this month. Which brings up the thought of at what age are we Old? For me its 25 years older than I. What is it for you??
