Unlock connection with your body and harness the power of self-healing. A fifth-generation practitioner of medical qigong, Master FaXiang Hou has dedicated a lifetime of study to women’s health. Qigong is the traditional Chinese practice of low-impact body movement based on the ancient theory that the beneficial flow of energy—or “qi”—through the body restores vitality and regulates the functions of the mind, body, and breath. Drawing on centuries-old knowledge, the practice protects against disease and other complications that arise when the meridians through which energy flows are blocked. Qigong has had spectacular results in patients, eliminating the need for medication and surgery that Western doctors often recommend for concerns that are simply part of the natural stages of a woman’s life. This guide contains qigong exercises with photo instructions, as well as mindful breathing techniques, acupressure, herbal remedies, a seasonal fasting plan, and 50 delicious healing recipes, including Ma Po Tofu and Lotus Root and Asian Pear Stir-Fry. Master Hou teaches women at any stage in their lives how to manage their internal energy, awaken their own powers of self-healing, and gain insight into the deep connections within their bodies. Women seeking in natural solutions to sleeping soundly, strengthening the immune system, thriving during childbearing years, taking menopause in stride, and achieving overall wellness in their lives will find answers here.

A Practical Guide To Qigong And Tai Chi For Beginners The world is changing more quickly than ever. There is ever more to see, do, and look after. There is constant stress and anxiety, which shortens our lives. Our lives pass by so quickly that it almost seems as though we were never really here, only traveling through life as passengers. If this describes you as well, you should practice Tai Chi and Qi Gong. Your posture and hip flexibility will improve thanks to Tai Chi, which is meditation in motion. Tai Chi will also help you with these other things: it will boost your mood, memory, focus, and concentration. Qi Gong enables you to exhale, step back from the surrounding mental noise and turbulence, and return to the present moment. Numerous studies have shown that these age-old methods are effective in overcoming a variety of life difficulties, including emotional irritability, anxiety, stress, and high blood pressure. Additionally, it might help you discharge long-stuck emotions and traumas from your body. When you experience the life force of Qi for the first time, you are eternally changed. The strong bond that connects your mind, body, and breath suddenly comes into sharper focus for you. However, for those from the West like us, it might be difficult to fully understand the underlying ideas that underlie these customs. They seem to be an unending world of different kinds, styles, levels, and variations. Not to mention that it is completely dissimilar from the philosophy we were raised with. This is the motivation behind my book. I want to serve as your entryway into these transformative arts by drawing on my decades of experience practicing Tai Chi and Qi Gong. To arm a novice with the information he needs to put into practice a successful daily practice and effortlessly maintain a healthy body and mind.
