You must seek help from a medical professional for any medical issues.
This is a practical book were you will be able to follow any exercises or forms, this is how the book has been written.

Research on Qigong Principles
This section has 9 questions, one of those questions is why can qigong enhance self-control? this is a great question. Reports on experiments being carried out and the results giving you great detail and technical information. Detailing down to the cells,
This section is research and as such the answer are very detailed and technical but do not get put off by this as most of the questions also provides the comprehensive conclusion which can be grasped once you finish the reading the answer.
If you like stats and science you will find this section perfect. This is no easy reading but it`s great to have this research questions here as it will in no doubt prove the benefits of qigong and give you some comfort in this practice. Also, great for reference as is this book in general.
Material Foundation
This section has only 2 questions and one which I found interesting is what scientific experiments have been done on the material on the nature of qi?
Again the questions in this section are technical and the answers even more, but this is what makes this book a very special book as there are not many books on the market that breaks down the information on qi to such a micro level. There is also some great photos of experiments showing results of an ordinary person and a qigong master.
Characteristics and Principles
This section has 15 questions and for anyone practices qigong it’s always a good place to start is with the principles and keep working on those throughout your training, this is a must with all martial arts and very important to have a full understanding of the principles and a constant working knowledge.
Out of those questions one which I personally like was why is qi the basis of qigong? how does Qi follow yi? great explanation giving you the details of how qi affect the complete body and mind. Also, mentions how the blood and qi harmonize.
This is a great a section which give you the information you must know when practicing qigong to get the full benefits of this practice and fell great and refreshed or a-line mind and body or master your breathing technique.

Hi Wince,
Well thank you for a detailed and informative review of this book. I have to admit I knew nothing at all about Qigong before reading your article but I am very interested now.
I strongly believe that some of the ancient peoples were much wiser than we give them credit for and this is just another piece of evidence to support that. I really enjoyed your review – I am intrigued to what techniques of bionics relates to. Would love to know. Looks like I’ll just have to get the book.
thanks again,
Rob

Some weeks back I was discussion with some friends of mine about excercing, and how import it is. Qigong might be something we need to try out.
We just need a way to relax our muscles, and learn to stretch them even more. How helpful have the book been for people? Do you know anyone who benefited from it?
All of us are mothers so, easy exercises we can do at home is much needed, especially at these times. Thanks for the review.
Hi Fatoumata, Thanks for your comments much appreciated, yes Qigong is something that would be great to learn as a form of exercise, great for relaxation and mind health you may also need to do some cardio exercise for fitness but with regards to Qigong you may like to check out one of my previous posts for beginners Please visit for more information: https://martialartsbookscompan…
This book is more for someone who has previously practiced Qigong, they would get the most benefit from this book, As the book answers 300 question regarding this subject. Still this is a great book to haven and will be limited in the future.
Qigong is ideal exercise to train at home and on your own or with a group of people.
Please let me know how you get on it would be great to hear from you again
