Dao Yin Yang Sheng Gong exercises regulate the body, breathing and the mind to achieve an improved quality of life. This book focuses on concentration, stretching the body to increase suppleness and adjusting the body's energy flow to control respiration.
Featuring clear and detailed explanations of every movement along with photographs and an accompanying DVD, this book will be equally useful to practitioners and beginners interested in taking up Qigong. This is the second volume in Professor Zhang Guangde's foundation Dao Yin Yang Sheng Gong sequences, and the movements described synchronize breathing and concentration by enhancing the body's flow of blood and energy to achieve higher levels of physical and mental agility.
This will be an essential text for Qigong practitioners and students and is accessible enough for the beginning Dao Yin Yang Sheng Gong student.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
...the book has been faithfully translated from Prof. Zhang's original texts with additions from and commentaries from some of his top students and coaches. It assumes some small knowledge of the theories of yin and yang, the five elements, internal organs and meridians but not too much and a lot of information is given to enable the reader to research the material further if needed (point names and numbers, names in Chinese and English etc)... Singing Dragon are to be congratulated on this series of books and I look forward to seeing more of Prof. Zhang's work published in English. -- Mike Hart, Head of Chanquanshu Wales
