This study represents the first randomized controlled trial (RCT) to investigate the effects of a 12 week tai chi program on alpha band power of college students in mainland China.
Alpha band are a type of brain wave that are associated with a calm, focused mind and are often present during meditation, relaxation, and creative activities. Strong alpha band is also associated with memory.
The results showed that the Tai Chi group had significant improvements in alpha band power. Increased alpha band can result in a state of deep relaxation and mental clarity, which is reflective of the overall sense of well-being experienced by Wulong tai chi practitioners.
