Bringing together various Eastern traditions in an accessible format, this guide develops the essence of an art that, for many years, was known exclusively in the elite Chinese holy temples. Chi Kung Shaolin is an instrument that cultivates and harmonizes the vital energy that flows in the human body--the same energy that allows thought, emotions, movements, and existence. The art of Chi Kung, therefore, is the development and harmony of the vital strength via simple and effective excercises. Anyone, regardless of culture or religion, can enjoy the physical and spiritual benefits of the exercises in this guide.
