A useful and clear book!, 12 May, 1999
Reviewer: A reader from Arizona
As a big fan of master Chuen's previous book, The Way of
Energy, I eagerly sought out this book when I learned it
was available. It is a very useful companion book to his
earlier one, and it stands well on its own, too. It is a
bit simpler in style and information, but contains
additional useful practices and other interesting tidbits.
It seems geared toward a reading audience that would be
more interested in a less intense chi kung regime than
that in The Way of Energy.

Reviews
The author, Bill Douglas, evolumin@aol.com
, 3 December, 1998
This book may be unlike any book you have seen on T'ai
Chi, because its fun and humorous, it offers inspiration
and a powerfully positive vision for the future, and a
nurturing acceptance that gently eases you into the rich
and profound arts of T'ai Chi and QiGong. For those who
pick up this book, a very practical common sense, and
immediately useful program can begin to help you dump
stress, sleep better, and improve health on all levels.
However, for those seeking it, this book offers a gateway
into what is perhaps one of the most powerful personal
growth and mind expansion tools ever invented. My SMART
program, which this book is based on, has discovered a
way to bring a 2,000 year old technology to modern
students in a way that delivers the full endless
potential the centuries of human research in these
ancient tools have evolved. And yet we've brought it much
further by explaining it in non-esoteric meaningful ways
that can be used by everyone, by corporate wellness
programs, schools, hospitals, senior and support
networks, penal rehabilitation programs, drug rehab &
prevention programs, and in all other walks of life. I
will explain how T'ai Chi and QiGong may be used to lower
crime, end our health care crisis, and elevate our level
of creativity and function on all levels of society, by
maximizing our human potential though the use of easy to
learn, soothing, and fun exercises. This book is perhaps
the most enjoyable, tangible, reassuring, and yet
comprehensive introductions to the overall wonders of
T'ai Chi & QiGong. It is unpretentious, common sense,
and yet for those ready to experience the profound nature
of life enhancement & mind expansion these ancient
tools offer, it offers that too. I am the author of this
book, and the Director of Stress Management and
Relaxation Technology (SMART). SMART has pioneered ways
to bring the soothing calm of T'ai Chi & QiGong into
our society on many different levels. We have been
commissioned by some of the world's largest corporations,
health networks, private and government institutions,
including medical universities, and have taught these
tools to children (elementary through college, including
students with learning and developmental disabilities).
It is our belief that these mind/body fitness tools,
which help us learn to change more easily and with less
stress damage, are perhaps the most powerful life tools
we can offer our children. They should be offered
throughout public education, just has physical education
and health science is. We and our children are facing
change faster than any generation in the history of the
planet, and it is taking a toll. These tools may be what
eases us into our evolving future in a way that no other
health technology can. I hope you enjoy the book, and
practice T'ai Chi and QiGong for the rest of your vibrant
healthy life!

matthieu_james@hotmail.com from California ,

One of the best!
It's about time that a book like this has been made.
Garripoli's understanding of qigong shines forth brightly.
All the stories by different qigong practitioners are
fascinating. They bring much light to this wonderful art.
I've been "playing" qigong for only a few
months but the results have been dramatic. I'm in better
shape and healthier than when I could ride 50 miles on a
bicycle, do 45 one arm pushups, etc. The aches and pains
have quickly disappeared, I need less sleep, and my
immune system is much stronger. As this book clearly
shows, qigong is easy, it can be done by anyone:
teenagers to people in their 90's, active or disabled.
One of the last parts of the book has a few excellent
Shaolin self-healing techniques that are worth the price
of the book alone. Get this book, you won't be
disappointed!
