Tai chi for insomnia in breast cancer survivors

A new study conducted at the UCLA Cousins Center for Psychoneuroimmunology at the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavour in Los Angeles indicates that tai chi may help relax breast cancer survivors with insomnia.  According to study lead Dr. Michael Irwin, tai chi was seen as being more effective "than medication in treating insomnia and reducing the risk for sleep loss-related health issues, including depression, fatigue, and a weakened immune system."
