Practice tai chi for 30 minutes.

“For the first 15 minutes of my tai chi class, we remain entirely in one spot to warm up. From afar, it probably looks as though we’re standing with our arms by our side and then – in slow motion – lifting them in front of us to 90 degrees. But if you were to look inside my brain, you would see my synapses firing trying to keep up with the instructor’s directions to do things that can’t be seen.”

“Concentrating on making tiny, isolated movements and following instructions such as “Please don’t move your shoulders. Only move your waist” feels like my brain is solving a Rubik’s Cube while my body is solving a Rubik’s Mini Cube.”

“I chose to do 30 minutes because I thought it was something achievable. I found myself doing an hour on most days because I was enjoying it so much and 30 minutes just wasn’t enough. Still, it was good to have a 30 minute goal for those days that I struggled.”
