A Comprehensive, Easy-To-Understand Guide To The Ancient Chinese Art Of Healing Body And Mind.

Qigong [pronounced chee-gung], which literally means "working with the energy of life", is an integrated mind-body healing method that has been practiced with remarkable results in China for thousands of years. The Chinese have long treasured qigong for its effectiveness both in healing and preventing disease. More recently, they have used it in conjunction with modern medicine to cure cancer, immune-system disorders, and other life-threatening conditions. Now, renowned qigong master and China scholar Kenneth S. Cohen brings the ancient healing power of qigong to Western listeners.

The Way of Qigong is filled with solid, practical exercises and guidance, providing an easy-to-follow program for working with our life energy through breathing and relaxation, meditation, visualization, and other natural methods. The benefits of qigong are obvious in those who practice it: increased strength, heightened sexuality, sounder sleep, clearer intuition, a more efficient and active metabolism, and minds and bodies that celebrate the harmony of true health.

Qigong's benefits have been analyzed and verified by contemporary medical researchers, who confirm resoundingly that qigong really does work. Now, with The Way of Qigong, the power and clarity of this ancient scientific art is finally available to us all. this landmark program will instruct, enlighten, enliven, and delight all who use it.

Very interesting book that I would listen again to understand more deeply this art.

Good

Good Book for gaining a foundation in Qigong. Very Good Read. I definitely recommend it.

Accessible

Principals of Qigong are easy to understand, easy to visualize the movement. Narrator is engaging

A Solid Introduction

For an introductory course on the subject of Qigong, you could do worse than this book. It's informative, and the opening meditations are about as simple as it can get. Even guided, that's not to say they're simple - everyone has their own blocks to work past when it comes to learning how to meditate - but this is definitely a "no fear" approach for those who are curious to begin and aren't sure how to do so.

Very good information and resourceful.

I like this book because it put the Qi cookies on the bottom shelf

Really helpful!

I appreciate the informative character of the book to explain the mind/body connection. Also, the respect and awareness of all creation, and our connectedness to it, is profound. He doesn’t over-elevate qigong in an effort to convert you, but instead offers a tool, and widens awareness and an ancient wisdom to experience life more richly.

Fantastic

Great book, even better reading of that book. Very educational and concise. Qigong explained in an easy to understand format.

Very good book!

Pleasant to listen, easy to follow the steps and refreshing after learning. I enjoy it very much , especially it incorporated the philosophy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which I am familiar with. Not expected I can learn the basic of Qi Gong from audible. It becomes my morning routine.

Simply amazing! A must for every library,

Ken Cohen brings us centuries of Eastern wisdom in gradually graded steps. Makes this huge literature very accessible! Thank you🤗🌹

Great info

This audio is very informative and useful to anyone wishing to practice this wonderful energy system!!
