Episode 326 Movement & Mental Health

from The Daily LEAD · host Brad Otto

In today's episode, we explore the ancient practices of Tai Chi, Qigong, and Baduanjin—gentle, mindful movements that support mental wellness by boosting a brain protein called BDNF, which helps with mood, focus, and brain health. I will also be guiding you through a calming 10-minute Qigong practice — a gentle, flowing form of movement that can actually rewire your brain.
