Chi Kung, Chinese for 'energy mastery,' is a physical discipline utilizing deliberate movement, slow breathing, mental concentration, and visualizations. This discipine is based on the same energy meridians used in Chinese acupuncture and is fully integrated into the traditional five-element wisdom of Chinese healing. A corporal art that consists of an intuitive understanding and respect of the yin and yang polarity of the body and its response to that same polarity in nature, chi kung can radically improve one's health and well-being.

By performing the exercises in this book for only half an hour each day, we can develop a subtle and sensitive perception of our envrionment and feed our own life energy from the magnetic resonance of the world around us. As our sensitivity to nature grows through these exercises we gain the abiity to master these enrgies and utilize them in our own phyusical and spiritual self-transformation. With a concise yet comprehensive overview of chi kung's theoretical background and more than fifty exercises that are well within the capability of anyone, regardless of age or phsyical condition, Chi Kung is an ideal guide to improving health and awakening the slumbering potential within.

Dr. Yves Requena, an acupuncturist and phytotherapist, is the director of the European Institute of Chi Kung, an organization that trains people to teach this ancient discipline. He has published several books in France on chi kung. He lives in Paris.
