As an occupational therapist, I can think of an interesting stress tip.
A western equivalent of taijutsu's "acting from the void" is referred to
as subcorticalization. The ability to perform taijutsu from a state of
mushin can be generalized into all areas of our daily living. Pick any
activity, whether work, leisure, or play, and find that mental state.
Any activity has the capability to produce eustress or distress.
Attempting to facilitate a state of mushin in day to day activity has
similar results(if not better) when compared to activities like chi
gung.
