Qigong: Cultivation of Body, Breath & Mind

Two years of writing and nearing completion. This new book looks at the underlying philosophies and the history of the many Chinese practices that come together under the broad umbrella of the term Qigong. It draws on both the traditional wisdom and the modern understanding of the cultivation of the body, the breath and the mind. There are also links to dozens of videos that demonstrate a wide range of qigong practices.
