Description

A valuable resource for anyone interested in pursuing a fulfilling life. – Ms Carmee Lee, Mentor Principal, MindChamps Holdings and former Principal, Raffles Girls School I strongly recommend this book. How TCM works and is applied to better manage health and illnesses are clearly explained and discussed. – Prof Hew Choy Sin, Senior Fellow, Institute of Advanced Studies, NTU Since time immemorial Man has pursued the elusive elixir of life. The wisdom of ancient Chinese medicine declared immortality unattainable, but offered the elixir of longevity through lifestyle, diet, the judicious use of herbal tonics and the practice of subtle but powerful exercises of qigong and taijiquan. This concise volume explains in modern scientific language the principles of ancient Chinese methods of health and the practice of yangsheng or life cultivation. Natural holistic solutions to health issues and the intricacies of Chinese diagnosis and therapies are brilliantly exposed, complete with detailed descriptions of herbs, acupuncture and tuina. Discover appetising recipes for soups, porridges and teas that give you that healthy glow and nourish your body and soul. Based on a series of popular lectures by the authors, this book opens a new chapter in your pursuit of a long and fulfilling life. It is also excellent preparation for more advanced studies in Chinese medicine.
