Jitters Abated

A daughter’s wedding is always a time of joy and excitement, as well as anxiety and anticipation. Our daughter was married recently in Ocean City, New Jersey, and it involved travel and sleepless nights before, during and after the joyous event. When I couldn’t calm myself down, I did a 20- to 30-minute T’ai Chi Chih practice and, amazingly, it allowed me to experience the wonderful weekend without being tense or exhausted. I originally practiced TCC for the physical benefits, but my emotional feelings of calm throughout the wedding were definitely attributable to TCC.
