Book excerpt: Qigong (pronounced "chee-gong") is an ancient Chinese health-care modality that has fascinated people throughout the millennia. Based on the fundamental principles of traditional Chinese medicine, Qigong is a system that teaches us to understand Qi, our bioelectric life force, and use it to heal ourselves and others. Qigong: Essence of the Healing Dance will give readers some of the basics of the outward "exercises" that are normally associated with the practice of Qigong, as well as detailing movements from such systems as Wuji Qigong, Bagua Xun Dao Gong and Shaolin Qigong. More than merely outlining these practices, this book will take readers on a journey of exploration into the essence of this fascinating, though little understood, healing practice. Masters from around the world—such as the ninety-two-year-old Duan Zhi Liang of Beijing, Canadian healer Effie Poy Yew Chow and American Jerry Johnson—contribute their personal insights into the wonders of Qigong. People from various walks of life, all of whom have achieved healing as a result of practicing Qigong, share their powerful experiences. Author Garri Garripoli, himself a practitioner of Qigong for the past twenty years, renders the book fascinating yet easy-to-read. He expertly guides readers on this once-in-a-lifetime journey, inspiring them to look deeper into healing in order to discover how to move beyond the standards and limitations of Western medicine. Qigong: Essence of the Healing Dance shows readers that we all carry within ourselves the ability to heal, and encourages them to tap into that innate gift and dance their own dance of life. Readers are sure to find this book fascinating, even life changing. It is a must-read for anyone intrigued by the mystique of ancient Eastern healing arts or seeking a daily practice that promotes and maintains full-body well-being.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From singer-songwriter Nathan Peterson (So Am I), comes a book of reflections about life, rest, and presence in the midst of grief. Written as a follow-up to So Am I, Peterson shares lessons learned during the 14 months following the passing of his one-year-old daughter, and explores the possibility that grief is not just a means to an end -- a necessary step on the road to healing -- but that grief is an end in itself -- that grief is healing. This book is not only for those who have lost a loved one. It is not a how-to book on grieving or an account of events. Rather, it is a sharing and an exploration of the inner world of a grieving father and of the beauty and inseparability of the pain, anger, and confusion of grief with healing. Presented as chronological writings from the day Olivia passed away until the Petersons' fifth child was born 14 months later, the chapters are interspersed with Nathan's journal entries from this period of time. Both Peterson's previous book (So Am I) and this book (Dance Again) correspond to albums (with the same titles) released and available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, and on his website.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to show that the possession cult of Vimbuza presents itself as an oral genre which is part and parcel of African Oral Literature. The ethno-linguistic study which we undertake will permit us to catch a glimpse of its whole complexity. The analysis has a bearing on four principal aspects. Historical developments: a certain number of facts concerning the birth of possession among the Tumbuka; possession: the study attempts to show how the cult articulates itself with its beliefs and the use of divination; the social role: analysis of social functions; the style: an analysis of the linguistic procedures which are characteristic of Vimbuza songs. The presence of rhetorical figures would confirm that we are talking about an oral literary genre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every hour in the UK, two people are told they have Parkinson’s disease. For Kate Swindlehurst, the diagnosis was a turning point: refusing to be defined by her condition, she chose instead a radically different path. This is the story of an extraordinary year. It begins with a single tango lesson but grows into an exploration of the dance itself, its history, its music and its incredible healing potential. It is a year in which Kate explored and documented ‘the tango effect’ – the emotional and social benefits of dance on Parkinson’s symptoms. Her personal account echoes what science is beginning to tell us about the powerful and transformative impact of Argentine tango. Intimate and unflinching, The Tango Effect challenges our perceptions of living with a chronic condition. Above all, it takes an honest look at the dark side of the illness while celebrating moments of joy, interconnectedness, acceptance and liberation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Come, sit by me," says Grandmother. "Take this chalk in your hand. Now draw a dot and concentrate all your energy into this one dot. It is the beginning and the end, the navel of the world." So Fawzia Al-Rawi describes her grandmother's first lesson about the ancient craft of Oriental dance. Grandmother's Secretsalways circles back to this grandmother and this young girl, echoing the circular movements of the dance itself. Al-Rawi has written a strikingly graceful and original book that blends personal memoir with the history and theory of the dance known in the West as "belly dancing." It is the story of a young Arab girl as she is initiated into womanhood. It is a history of the dance from the earliest times through the days of the Pharaohs, the Roman Empire, to the Arab world of the last three centuries. It is a personal investigation into the effects of the dance's movements on individual parts of the body and the whole psyche. It is a guide to the actual techniques of the dance for those who are inspired to put down the book and move. Al-Rawi conveys in this book not only the history and technique of grieving and mourning dances, pregnancy and birth dances, but the spirit of these age-old rituals, and their possibilities for healing and empowering women today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minister and theologian Marcia Mount Shoop Offers an analysis of Reformed heritage---and an impassioned provocation that we live more adventurously. "Beautifully written and deeply felt. This work offers a vivid theology relocated in the flesh and blood of life's utter physicality. Finally a book to recommend when people ask about resources on bodies and theology!"---Bonnie J. Miller-McLemore, E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Professor of Pastoral Theology, The Divinity School and Graduate Department of Religion, Vanderbilt University "An incredibly compelling theological work. Bringing together a host of cutting-edge concerns that matter not simply to academic theologians, but to the lived life of faith, this project invokes the importance of bodies and their marking by gender, race, ethnicity, etc. Mount Shoop uses these now-familiar themes to break new ground by revealing the inadequacy of the overly verbal and cognitive character of Protestant worship and practice. It is groundbreaking."---Mary McClintock Fulkerson, Professor of Theology, Duke Divinity School, and author of Places of Redemption: Theology for a Worldly Church "Mount Shoop thiks in new ways about central theological concepts and dares to imagine a new church emerging out of them. She combines the intellectual vigor of an academic with the heart and soul of a pastor who understands what it means to lead a congregation. Happily, she writes like a poet. Let the Bones Dance is provocative, stimulating, and readable."---John M. Buchanan, pastor, Fourth Presbyterian Church, Chicago, Illinois, and author of A New Church for a New World Contemporary Christian faith and practice tend to address spiritual, mental, and emotional issues but ignore the body. As a result, many believers are uncomfortable in their own skins. Mount Shoop addresses this "dis-ease" with a theology that is attentive to physical experience. She also suggests how worship services can more fully invite God to inhabit every part of a congregation---including their flesh-and-blood bodies.

Book excerpt: Balance your chakras to improve your life, with the powerful 'moving meditation' of Chakradance. If you like the idea of yoga, but not the challenging poses, Chakradance is for you. If you like the idea of meditation, but find it hard to sit still for more than a few minutes, Chakradance is for you. If you know you've got old 'baggage' to release, but find 'talk therapy' too awkward for words, Chakradance is for you. We all want to achieve that wonderful state of 'well-being' in which we feel happier, healthier, more grounded, more balanced, more fully ourselves and more fully alive! With Chakradance, more and more people are finding a way to achieve this. Our chakras are our energy centres (subtle, invisible, but essential to life), that hold mind, body and spirit together. The practice of Chakradance activates, tunes and balances your chakras, to improve your life. Eastern philosophies have long known about the dynamic inter-relationship of mind, body and spirit, and the West, thanks partly to advances in the field of neuro-science, is quickly catching up . . . hence the growth of yoga, of mindfulness, and a whole new world of "well-being" practices. In this book, Chakradance. founder Natalie Southgate explains how this gentle yet powerful 'moving meditation' practice actually works, including examples and stories from her own life and the lives of Chakradancers all over the world. She demonstrates how working with your chakras, using music, movement and mandalas, can help you discover a deeper connection to your true authentic self, leading you to the most wonderful feeling of vibrant well-being. The book also includes links to downloadable chakra-specific music tracks and guided meditations so you can try it for yourself.
