Tai Chi @ Work
This is a very relaxing DVD. The movements are really slow, deliberate, and methodical, yet they flow smoothly like water in a river. I can fully see why it is subtitled The Secret to Managing Stress as the calming effects of performing the movements are immediate. This is not just for the work place; I recommend it for anyone who is the caregiver of a seriously disabled person.

It's a beginning
Worksite wellness is a growing trend and companies are always looking for ways to increase productivity thus this DVD can be played in segments at monthly trainings and then encourage staff to implement in a daily break. Hopefully, as forms are learned, eventually a group break can occur for a shared experience.
