We have been conducting a series of studies, sponsored by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, on TCM health promotion by teaching the general public to do some Tao-yin exercises. This photo was taken yesterday when we had a wrap-up presentation for all the participants.
Please refer to these three Youtube videos filmed by the Taiwan Society of Health Promotion, where I now serve as Deputy Secretary-General, for the details:
1. 上壽導引法 Longivity Tao-yin
2. 調氣和神法 Regulate the Qi and Harmonize the Spirit
3. 醫學八段錦 Medical Baduanjin Qigong (Eight Pieces of Brocade)
After practicing each of these Tao-yin exercises for two months, the result all show that the blood pressure and the quality of life, the quality of sleep are statistically significantly better. What's more, when we use BCQ (Body Constitution Questionaire, including BCQ+, BCQ-) to evaluate the body constitution of the participants, the result also shows that the Yin-deficiency, Yang-deficiency and Stasis can be corrected to normal body constitution by practicing these Tao-yin exercises for two months.
As prevention is more important than treatment, we believe it is our first priority for TCM doctors to educate general public/family & friends/patients to avoid being sick. And it works!
Want to stay healthy? These exercises are not so complicated and can be practiced at home at all weather conditions.
Why not join us and give it a try?
