Pilates has been around for nearly a century, but the benefits of health and stress damage still exist today. Pilates is a complete physical and mental exercise (considering yoga is aerobics) by combining breathing and core work with exercise and strength building exercises. Pilates is a great choice for newcomers to the world of exercise, it will help relieve stress, relieve shoulder and neck pain, strengthen the immune system - and your core.
How to get started: If you can swing it, the private Pilates class is great for learning the basics and working on forms. However, if this is not possible, start with the basic mat class (not a Pilates class involving devices, such as the reformer class), or find an introductory course online or through a fitness app. When you first started, the only thing you need is the exercise mat.
6. Tai Chi
Taijiquan was originally developed for self-defense, and it has developed into one of the most tried and tested methods of stress management. Like yoga, Tai Chi is a kind of mobile meditation that helps reduce tension and promote tranquility through a series of elegant, fluid movements and concentrated breathing exercises.
Slow pace and low impact, Tai Chi is the perfect primary fitness goal for mentally healthy people. In other words, don't be fooled by the seemingly gentle way of Tai Chi Chuan: this ancient art form also greatly enhances flexibility, balance and power. As an added bonus, Tai Chi is associated with better sleep and pain management.
How to get started: There are many "Tai Chi Foundation" videos available, but to learn the correct form and breathing techniques, certified instructors are the best way. It is also helpful to understand meditation or mindfulness techniques, as these two techniques are often incorporated into practice.
