I have just been diagnosed with IBS, at age 50 ! My soon to be "better half" suggests that we start Tai Chi to help with stress mgmt. for IBS. Anybody out there "reaping " the benefits of Tai Chi?

Nope, but it sounds like a VERY good idea! Good on your man for suggesting it! It'll be great for you guys to do something together that'll help your IBS. It can get very isolating if you don't make an effort like this.

There are even some studies to support Tai Chi as quite helpful for IBS, not to mention loads of other health benefits. If you have the First Year IBS book there's a whole section about Tai Chi in there - it's excerpted here Tai Chi and IBS .
