East Meets West Healing

Good start to understand Eastern and Western medicine. 5 stars for his background layout of those. However, he fails to do indexing at the end of the books. Such as page 17, when he refers to Robert Becker, "The Body Electric". no appendix, no index, no suggested reading whatsoever. I hope his next edition of this book will include those to become more professional readings. As you many know, there are many QI Gong masters in this planet, some are faked , some are hunting for money, BUT some are real!! For more information about Qi theory and history, I guess those below books are good reference. Encounter With Qi, by Eisenberg Healing Promise of Qi, by Roger For me, the real Qi-gong master who still living now is Lin Hou-Sheng, in Shanghai ,China. He himself is a chinese medicine doctor who proves lots of his works in scientific terms. His Tai Ji Qi Gong 18 movements of Lin Hou-Sheng is also great!! his English translated books "300 questions on Qigong" is excellent. You can try to do those exercises to get in touch with QI it's real but can not be explained with simple vocabulary. Don't believe in anything about "Qi" , until you touch it with your own feeling!!

This book has inspired me!

This book is the best book I have ever read on the subject of QI Gong. I find the exercises easy to do and very beneficial to my health and everyday life. I highly recommend that everybody reads this book.
