Description
Uniting the natural spirit and human spirit is the ultimate goal of spiritual enlightenment. In order to reach this goal, a practitioner must first know how to store Qi in an abundant level in the human body. This means knowing the theory and the techniques of Embryonic Breathing. This book discusses most of the available ancient documents, and includes scientific analysis of the practice, and detailed instruction for practising.
Author Biography
Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming, is a renowned author and teacher of Chinese martial arts and Qigong. Born in Taiwan, he has trained and taught Taijiquan, Qigong and Chinese martial arts for over forty-five years. He is the author of over thirty books, and was elected by Inside Kung Fu magazine as one of the 10 people who has "made the greatest impact on martial arts in the past 100 years." Dr. Yang lives in Northern California.
Reviews"During my many years as a natural health writer, I've read hundreds and hundreds of books on Qigong and meditation, but during those ten years I've never encountered a book as thoroughly researched and documented as Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming's massive translation and commentary on the available materials related to Embryonic Breathing theory and techniques. Those of us in the West owe Dr. Yang a sincere bow of gratitude for this fascinating resource."--Chet Day, author of 21 Days to Health & Beyond
