Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Charisma Myth, Olivia Fox Cabane offered a groundbreaking approach to becoming more charismatic. Now she teams up with Judah Pollack to reveal how anyone can train their brain to have more eureka insights. The creative mode in your brain is like a butterfly. It's beautiful and erratic, hard to catch and highly valued as a result. If you want to capture it, you need a net. Enter the executive mode, the task-oriented network in your brain that help you tie your shoes, run a meeting, or pitch a client. To succeed, you need both modes to work together--your inner butterfly to be active and free, but your inner net to be ready to spring at the right time and create that "aha!" moment. But is there any way to trigger these insights, beyond dumb luck? Thanks to recent neuroscience discoveries, we can now explain these breakthrough moments--and also induce them through a series of specific practices. It turns out there's a hidden pattern to all these seemingly random breakthrough ideas. From Achimedes' iconic moment in the bathtub to designer Adam Cheyer's idea for Siri, accidental breakthroughs throughout history share a common origin story. In this book, you will learn to master the skills that will transform your brain into a consistent generator of insights. Drawing on their extensive coaching and training practice with top Silicon Valley firms, Cabane and Pollack provide a step-by-step process for accessing the part of the brain that produces breakthroughs and systematically removing internal blocks. Their tactics range from simple to zany, such as: · Imagine an alternate universe where gravity doesn’t exist, and the social and legal rules that govern it. · Map Disney’s Pocahontas story onto James Cameron’s Avatar. · Rid yourself of imposter syndrome through mental exercises. · Literally change your perspective by climbing a tree. · Stimulate your butterfly mode by watching a foreign film without subtitles. By trying the exercises in this book, readers will emerge with a powerful new capacity for breakthrough thinking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Fuchs is a lifelong reader and writer, enjoying many genres of literature, fiction, and non-fiction, as well as movies and television. A child of amazing artists, he was raised in an artistic environment which encouraged his creativity from birth. He has had editorials and articles published in magazines, such as Massage Magazine, Tai Chi, Qi: The Journal of Eastern Health and Fitness, and The Empty Vessel. He has been featured on television, radio, and in newspapers and magazines numerous times.Mike is a Sifu (Master Teacher) and Instructor in the arts of Shaolin Five Form Fist Kung Fu, Taiji, Kali, Reiki, Qi Gong, Min Zin, and Meditation. He is the former owner and Chief Instructor of the White Lotus Martial Arts Center (est. 1977) and currently leads Butterfly Martial and Healing Arts. He has been elected by his peers in the arts into elite Halls of Fame, including the Action Martial Arts Hall of Honors, The Master's Hall of Fame, and the World Karate Union 'Lifetime Achievement Award," amongst others.When I was contacted by my old friend, Master Michael Fuchs, to consider writing a foreword to his new book "The Shaolin Butterfly Style - Art of Transformation" I must admit I was less than enthused. My first thought was yet another "me too" how to - Kung Fu book.Michael sent me the manuscript, and I picked it up and read it straight through - very unlike me - to find a book on the arts that would engage my attention so resolutely. Of course one of the elements that bore great historical significance was the role played by the great Grandmaster Daniel Pai, a man larger than life with whom I had spent some time, during the formation of the Chinese Kuoshu Worldwide Promotion Association in the late 1970s. GM Danny Pai was quite legitimate - he was the "real thing" - and was so dynamic you would instantly sense his abilities by just being in his presence. The book - "The Shaolin Butterfly Style - Art of Transformation" has been so well written by Michael that it becomes an instructional manual with the historical and philosophical significance required of true transformation work. At the same time, the book lays a framework for the physical development and technical description of both technique and application. Whether you are a novice in the Martial Arts or one with decades of training, you will most certainly gain knowledge and insight from experiencing - "The Shaolin Butterfly Style - Art of Transformation."Grandmaster David M.

Download or read book Martial Mechanics written by Phillip Starr and published by Blue Snake Books. This book was released on 2008-03-25 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in a wide range of martial arts grows exponentially each year, but few practitioners understand the scientific forces that underlie these arts. The originators of ancient traditional systems intuitively grasped the body mechanics behind their disciplines, and thus were capable of generating uncanny striking force. Contemporary students, on the other hand, often fail to achieve the high levels of technical proficiency they desire because they are unaware of these laws and how they work in a martial arts context. Drawing on the author’s decades of experience as both student and teacher, Martial Mechanics explains, in humorous, easy-to-understand language, how physics and kinesiology affect martial arts techniques and how readers can best utilize them to make them faster, more powerful, and hence more effective in actual combat. Featuring black-and-white photographs throughout, Martial Mechanics is written for both internal and external martial artists, mixed martial arts practitioners with an interest in competition or self-defense, students of kung fu, karate, taekwondo, muay thai boxing, kickboxing, wing chun, and more. Even many of the traditional grappling arts utilize certain striking techniques, and their disciples as well can improve their percussive skills with this practical guide.

Download or read book Martial Maneuvers written by Phillip Starr and published by Blue Snake Books. This book was released on 2009-08-04 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Martial Maneuvers, Phillip Starr demonstrates that while the internal martial arts—Taijiquan, Bagua Zhang, and Xingyi Quan—might be considered ineffective for practical self-defense, they in fact have a long history of combat use. Starr argues that most teachers and practitioners of the internal arts have forgotten their rich martial heritage, focusing instead on their applicability for health or spiritual practices. Starr returns to the roots of the three major internal arts, demonstrating the combative principles upon which they were originally based. Martial Maneuvers often takes a lighthearted and humorous approach to what can often be challenging material, and provides training routines in easy-to-understand language. Numerous photos demonstrate the step-by-step implementation of fighting techniques, teaching readers how to apply them to their own chosen martial disciplines. While designed primarily for the internal martial artist, the techniques demonstrated in Martial Maneuvers can also benefit and enrich the training of a student of any discipline, including karate and kung fu.

Book excerpt: Distilling the martial art known in the West as kung fu, Robert Smith presents Chinese boxing (ch’uan shu) as an art “that combines the hardness of a wall and the softness of a butterfly’s wings.” His lively, pragmatic account conveys the discipline and insights acquired in ten years of study and travel in Asia.

Fifty black and white photos illustrate this informative and personal account of the Chinese boxing tradition.
