Reviews

"As with all his books, Mantak Chia shows respect for the traditiion of Chi Nei Tsang as well as for the reader. . . . a purely informative volume that clarifies much of the misunderstanding of energy systems and directs the reader to a new experience of healing."
*Deborah Adams, Curled Up With a Good Book, Sept 2009*

"This is a must for any practitioner working with detoxification on an energetic level with his or her clients."
*Rahsya Poe, Lotus Guide magazine, Oct-Dec 2009*

" . . . a guide to the chi energy that resides in all of our bodies. . . . of interest to any with a strong interest in metaphysical spirituality."
*The Midwest Book Review, Oct 2009*

". . . will take you to your next level of understanding, even if you are not a practitioner. There is enough in this book for all students of the Asian healing arts to deepen their understanding of the ancient and integrated theory of how the body, mind, and spirit interrelate in the manifestation of 'qi energy' and form."
