Effects of 24w tai Chi exercise on the mental health of urban elderly women

Tai Chi exercise requires the characteristics of valuing nature, pursuing emptiness and tranquility, emphasizing on nourishing Qi, and emphasizing intuition. It is a rare form of exercise for self-cultivation and character [1, 2]. Tai Chi exercise can improve the mental health of subjects (the subjects are ordinary college students and teenagers) [3, 4]. In addition, some scholars have studied the mental health of elderly people who have practiced Tai Chi for a long time [5, 6], but they have not quantified the cycle of Tai Chi exercise, such as the intensity and frequency of practice. This study aimed to reveal the impact of regular Tai Chi exercise on the mental health of older women.
