Book Description

This book begun as a training guide for students of CKFA Kung Fu and Floating Monk Qigong. It also provided training tips about: the best times of day to practice, what direction to face, advice about eating, drinking, clothing, temperature, weather, and much more. The booklet I envisioned became this larger book which provides a history of our Art, Philosophy and the Amazing Masters. The original idea proved very useful, so all of our Workshops and Training Programs now include program specific training guides. We at Floating Monk hope that you will enjoy this book about our System, Floating Monk Qigong, the Amazing Masters, and True Stories from both recent times and long ago - detailing the amazing benefits which some Qigong practitioners have experienced.

Book Description

"Tai Chi and Qigong: 50 True Chi Stories" includes inspirational stories from fifty people whose lives have been made better by Tai Chi and Qigong. Originally from China, but now practiced the world over, Tai Chi and Qigong help their practitioners improve their health and fitness, aid in healing and recovery of illness, relieve stress, develop energy and vitality, and gain a better sense of connection to themselves and the world around them. In today's information age, you can easily find research studies and statistics on the value of these Chi energy development practices. And you can even find dramatic stories of people who have received miraculous healing from these arts for all sorts of health problems. But the value of Tai Chi and Qigong is not shown just by studies and statistics. And it's not shown just by miracles that happen only occasionally or sporadically. While statistics and miracles are impressive, the value of Chi Development is really shown in the mundane. It's the simple changes that happen in the daily lives of students and practitioners that show the real power of the Chi arts. That's the emphasis in this book of Chi stories. Yes, you'll read about a few healing miracles here, but the main emphasis is on the everyday benefits we've received from our dedication to Chi development. In other words, this is all about "lives made better" by Tai Chi and Qigong.
