Qigong: Traditional Chinese Exercises for Healing Body, Mind & Spirit DVD & Study Guide by Ken Cohen (Preowned)

The Chinese Way of Meditation in Motion.

In China, the way to vibrant health does not lead to the doctor's office; it is as close as the air we breathe. In Qigong: Traditional Chinese Exercises for Healing Body, Mind, and Spirit, you will learn ancient techniques for harnessing the massive power of gi—literally, the "vital breath," or energy of the universe.

Thousands of years before the establishment of Western medicine, Chinese masters perfected a system of gentle movements and meditative postures that can channel qi into the body for detoxifying, energizing, and healing. Ken Cohen, preeminent qigong master in the West, presents these authentic practices in Qigong.

Using easy-to-follow language and dozens of demonstrations, Ken Cohen shares a complete four-part workout you can practice anytime you have a few minutes and enough room to stand and stretch. Simple to learn and elegant to practice, Qigong offers the perfect way to cultivate a peaceful spirit and healthy body, one breath at a time.
