I've been doing Tai Chi on and off for 20 years. The fundamentals of all martial arts are the same.

I hope I will be a calm mother; I do yoga and I meditate, and those should help.

Become slower in your journey through life. Practice yoga and meditation if you suffer from 'hurry sickness.' Become more introspective by visiting quiet places such as churches, museums, mountains and lakes. Give yourself permission to read at least one novel a month for pleasure.

I've been taking martial arts for a long time. I started with tae kwon do, and then I started taking karate and mixed martial arts.

Yoga gave me the ability to calm down.

I do a little bit of yoga-style meditation. Relaxing and breathing even just one minute a day makes a big difference.

I've done a lot of meditation studying on my own, but I've also taken a couple of transcendence classes.

You can fix your body, your heart, your diabetes. In Korea, China, and India, there are people who do yoga. They go to the mountains and do breath-in, breath-out meditation. They can live 500 years and not get sick. Keeping their bodies for a long time is possible; even flying in the sky is possible.

Initially I was very drawn to the Tao Te Ching, the Taoist philosophy. It was helping me deal with the balance of these external and internal issues with my chess life. Tai chi is the martial embodiment of Taoist philosophy. Initially, I had no intention of competing in the martial arts; it was just the meditation.

Don't meditate on what you don't have, and remind yourself what you do have.
