5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, effective and easy-going introduction to Chi Gong., 18 Feb 2001

By	amy-rod@riolink.com (Truth or Consequences USA) - See all my reviews

I purchased this book for myself, which I gave to my neice, and now I am buying a copy for my mother. I practice Tai Chi Chuan and am familiar with many of the Tai Chi and Chi Gong techniques. What I like about this book is the ease with which you can do the practice. Effectiveness is not how complex the moves are but in doing a simple move the right way. I heartily recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction to self-healing techniques, 1 Sep 2007

By	Lisa Topping (Worcester, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I thoroughly recommend this book, and am surprised that so few people have reviewed it. If you know nothing about the ancient chinese self-healing arts of Tai Chi and Qigong then this is an excellent introduction. It is written in a simple and practical style, but at the same time the author manages to convey his great enthusiasm for the techniques he describes. Covering four main areas (gentle movements, self-applied massage, breathing practices and relaxation/meditation techniques)it makes you realise how easy it can be to look after and enhance your own health. The techniques are suitable for people of all ages and physical abilities, and can be done either to aid recovery from a medical condition, or just to make healthy people feel even better.

Even though I have studied Tai Chi and Qigong for a number of years, I still found it interesting and helpful to explore the techniques covered in this book. I suppose it took me back to basics and helped me re-focus on some of the simple, but fundamental, aspects of Tai Chi. However for people who want to delve deeper into this topic I would also recommend the author's other book - The Healing Promise of Qi.

2.0 out of 5 stars A padded account, 13 Feb 2008

By	F. M. Muse "headspace traveller" (Leicester, Leics United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book promises much, but actually delivers rather less, being padded out with sort of case histories, accounts of various US institutions and a near endless repetition of the same exhortations/allegations. This book could have been reduced to the "how to" essentials and a clear, uncluttered, well-structured programme of exercises. Providing you have plenty of time it would be possible to do this yourself after weeding out the chaff. My copy is going back to Amazon after having been in possession of it for c. six hours. Clearly written for the US market and people who don't do a lot of joined up thinking, this book represents a missed opportunity.
