Download or read book Clouds Over Qingcheng Mountain written by Wang Yun and published by Singing Dragon. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immersing the mind with the concepts of the Daoist path of health and immortality, Clouds over Qingcheng Mountain invokes the sacred birthplace of one of China's mystical mountains that has stimulated both mind and body for generations. Whilst the first volume, Climbing the Steps to Qingcheng Mountain, invited the reader to travel across time and through the history of China and Daoism, Clouds over Qingcheng Mountain is more focused in the book's purpose. Wang Yun places special focus on relaxation and the breath through five sets of foundational yet all-encompassing practices, such as posting, to deepen both themes. He offers tales from his life and journey, along with accessible tools to strengthen both body and qi. Bridging the gap between practical experience and philosophical background, Clouds over Qingcheng Mountain simplifies the complex practices of Daoism handed down by generations of accomplished Masters, and gifts the reader with its most valuable aspects for a modern world.

Book excerpt: Eight Winds in the Heavens Seasonal Health Secrets and Qi Gong Exercises from Daoist Sages that Prevent Disease and Promote Optimal Health & Vitality Tom Bisio's newest book, Eight Winds in the Heavens, is a life-changing Immersion into principles of health, vitality and disease prevention so fundamental to our life on earth that they are literally embedded in our DNA. This book is literally a "Farmers Almanac" for the Human Body. Daoist sages who lived long, healthy lives stressed the importance of seasonal health practices and Seasonal Qi Gong in preserving and maintaining health. Over centuries of detailed observation of the patterns inherent in all living things, they discovered observable changes within living things in response to the earth's position in the cosmos that correlated with the "Seasonal Nodes" (24 two-week periods), and they created health practices and exercises to assist the body in adapting to and harmonizing with these cyclical changes. Eight Winds in the Heavens is the product of decades of research into seasonal health and Seasonal Qi Gong. Previously the number and diverse nature of the seasonal health maintenance and disease prevention practices in China made these practices difficult to understand and organize for practical use. Now renowned author, martial artist, Qi Gong expert and Chinese medical practitioner, Tom Bisio has gathered all of these self-cultivation methods together in a single, easy-to-use volume that is organized like a calendar. These powerful methods of preserving health are now literally at your fingertips. Simply open the book to the current two-week period and begin. Engaging with even one of these methods can create profound changes in the body, mind and spirit. Eight Winds in the Heavens includes these Seasonal Health practices: - Season Dao Yin Self Massage - Seasonal Node Qi Gong - Seasonal Spinal Meditation - Seasonal Health Diet - Adapting Mind and Spirit to the Seasons - Seas

Download or read book The Taoist Road to Health written by Masao Hayashima and published by Kodansha. This book was released on 1997 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taoism ("the Way"), said to have been founded in China in the fourth century B.C., emphasizes oneness with nature. Doin ("Taking the Way") came into being in order to translate Taoist thinking into practical terms for the promotion of physical and mental health. Doin forms the basis for the modem disciplines of T'ai Chi and Qigong, incorporating simple exercises, breathing practice, and the enhancement of ki, or the spirit that pervades not only the individual but the outer world as well. The Taoist Road to Health first provides an overview of Taoism and Doin, placing each in historical and philosophical perspective. Next comes the heart of the book: thirty exercises for attaining physical and mental well-being. The exercises are basic and easy to put into practice -- each has been carefully selected by the author as eminently suitable for beginners. Masao Hayashima is the foremost practitioner of Doin in Japan, and the founder of a 20,000-member dojo. For those who prefer not to concentrate exclusively on one aspect of health -- physical or mental -- but would like to find a truly harmonious combination of the two, The Taoist Road to Health may well be the first step toward a new way of life.

Download or read book Chinese Healing Exercises written by Livia Kohn and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2008-09-30 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daoyin, the traditional Chinese practice of guiding the qi and stretching the body is the forerunner of Qigong, the modern form of exercise that has swept through China and is making increasing inroads in the West. Like other Asian body practices, Daoyin focuses on the body as the main vehicle of attainment; sees health and spiritual transformation as one continuum leading to perfection or self-realization; and works intensely and consciously with the breath and with the conscious guiding of internal energies. This book explores the different forms of Daoyin in historical sequence, beginning with the early medical manuscripts of the Han dynasty, then moving into its religious adaptation in Highest Clarity Daoism. After examining the medieval Daoyin Scripture and ways of integrating the practice into Tang Daoist immortality, the work outlines late imperial forms and describes the transformation of the practice in the modern world. Presenting a rich crop of specific exercises together with historical context and comparative insights, Chinese Healing Exercises is valuable for both specialists and general readers. It provides historical depth and opens concrete details of an important but as yet little-known health practice.
