Our mission is to share this ancient means of maintaining good health and physical fitness and relieving stress by practising Taiji Quan on a regular basis. CancerStory Simplified Taiji Quan routines is an easy to learn and beneficial exercise for cancer patients. Our main objective is to promote Taiji Quan, a safe exercise which will help cancer stricken people to relieve stress and relax their body and mind. Stress has a powerful physical and mental response in the body which has been recently traced to be the cause of eighty percent of all disease.
Cancer is no different.
Stress triggers stress-fighting hormones which can be produced twenty four hours a day depending on the severity and duration of the stress. These stress-fighting hormones are degenerative and produce free radicals as waste products which are believed to be the leading cause of aging, disease, cancer and death. We hope to provide an opportunity for cancer patients to meet others with similar experiences, share concerns and find ways of managing their illness. Many cancer patients have found it useful to seek support from others who are going through the same experience. Eligibility Only CancerStory members and volunteers can join the above support group.
