Reseña del editor

Chi gong, the cornerstone of traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years, has been proven effective in the prevention and cure of many diseases. Over sixty million Chinese practice chi gong, yet, unlike acupuncture and acupressure, it remains a mystery to most Americans. This ancient oriental therapy combines mental concentration and breathing exercises to activate and circulate our vital energy through the body's acupuncture meridians. With proven, step-by-step exercises the authors show how to: perform chi gong at home, from basic Standing-on-Stake exercises to the more advanced Magic Palm and One-Finger Art; increase vitality by maintaining the perfect balance of energies in your body; prevent and cure ulcers, hypertension, heart disease, and general aches and pains; and achieve a comfortable and therapeutic meditative state, promoting health and longevity. More than an instructional manual, Chi Gong represents the first comprehensive survey of this revolutionary healing art. Combining up-to-date information from Western scientific investigations and personal insights from Paul Dong's decade-long practice, the authors explore the mysterious link between chi gong and psychic phenomena, and provide profiles of chi gong masters, amazing healers who treat illness by directing a powerful bioenergy, external chi, at their patients' meridian points. Accessible discussions of chi gong's role in acupuncture and herbal medicine, chi gong's treatment of cancer, and a tour through one of China's many chi gong clinics round out this volume.
