Tai Chi

Restore Balance, Build Strength, and Cultivate Mindful Recovery

At Innervisions Recovery Center, Tai Chi is a gentle yet powerful practice we integrate into our holistic treatment model. With its slow, flowing movements and emphasis on breath and presence, Tai Chi helps individuals in recovery develop greater physical control, emotional regulation, and mental clarity.

Whether you’re healing from addiction, working through co-occurring mental health conditions, or simply seeking internal peace, Tai Chi provides a path to centeredness, strength, and calm that supports sustainable recovery.

What Is Tai Chi?

Tai Chi is an ancient mind-body discipline that combines fluid motion with focused breathing and mindfulness. Originally a martial art, today it’s widely embraced as a therapeutic practice that improves both physical and emotional health. Tai Chi works by gently activating the body, calming the nervous system, and enhancing awareness of the present moment—making it an ideal support in substance use and mental health treatment.

How Tai Chi Supports Healing

Tai Chi goes beyond exercise—it’s a meditative movement practice that fosters internal balance, stress relief, and self-awareness. We incorporate Tai Chi into our recovery programs as a grounding activity that reconnects clients with their physical bodies while reducing anxiety, cravings, and emotional overwhelm.
