This book is an enriched version of my other book that has a 5 stars review, "Can Tai Chi be self-learned?" Some viewers have asked me to do a step-by-step instruction book for Tai Chi. However, when I researched into the possibilities I found that Tai Chi is a lot more than martial arts and its principles can be applied into many Dong gong and Jing gong and even simple exercises. It is much better to know the principles and the guidelines to practice good Tai Chi than to confine the instructions into mundane step-by-step details. I have a YouTube video that can give viewers a brief introduction of the principles of Tai Chi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKMIMjjVqvk&t=369sThe essential principles on how to do tai chi in order to gain the benefits this present book I have quoted a qigong expert, Master Zhou Qian-chuan''s comment, "The main styles of Tai Chi quan as a form of martial arts, including the Yang, the Chen and the Wu, have designed the movements too complicated for qigong practice. For instance, the body turns, the footwork, and the various configurations of the fists, the palms and even the fingers for their extension, flexion, catching and punching are designed for combat with disguises and attacks from unexpected angles. The chest, the abdomen, the shoulders and even the head and necks do various functions in absorption and the nullification of the opponent''s attacks. As a result, the meridians are all tangled up in the martial arts training and real fighting. The 3 yang meridians of the hands 手三陽經（大腸、三焦、小腸large intestine, triple burner, small intestine）、and the three yang meridians of the legs 足三陽經（胃、膽、膀胱Stomach, gallbladder, bladder) are overemphasized and move too fast for the hand three yin meridians手三陰經（肺、心包、心Lung. Pericardium and heart and the foot three yin meridians足三陰經（脾、肝、腎spleen, liver, kidney）to catch up with the movements. From my observation, 30 % to 40% of the Tai Chi martial arts masters have this problem. Their complexion might look healthy with a glowing red face but when I examined them, most of those that fitted the above descriptions were diabetic and hypertensive with a numbness of the left side of the body. Most of these cases usually suffered from a stroke when they aged. My suggestion is for Tai Chi practitioners to convert Tai Chi back to its 13 poses as a form of qigong with simpler movements but with internal kung fu training as designed by the Taoists for the practice of Enlightenment and Longevity."I have a medical finding in this book to support Master Zhou''s claim. According to Dr. George Ho, the author of this book the acquisition of the CranioSacral Postural reflex of Tai Chi is essential if one wants to succeed in Tai Chi and sleeping qigong, which according to Master Huai-jin Nan can be practiced in a supine or a side-lying posture. However, there is no report of anybody succeeding in a prone posture. To substantiate the background for the understanding of sleeping qigong please watch the following two YouTube videos:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrWHuLxQ_YwSleeping qi gong by Dr. George Ho of Vancouverhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n3TTQVNhh0&t=287s胎息Tāi xī (embryonic breathing??) by Huai-jin Nan, supplemented by Dr. George HoThe best self-evaluation of one''s success in sleeping qigong is the emergence of the embryonic mode of respiration, called Taixi胎息 in Chinese. Also, the ability to lie supine or sideways for a long time without discomfort is also a good criterion. This has been substantiated by Dr. George Ho''s ability to lie still in a very relaxed manner during his dental treatments. This new usage of the sleeping qigong is invaluable for dental patients and dentists and should be taught to the public. If the Dental Association is interested I am willing to share my experiences in sleeping qigong.

Practiced by millions in China to release stress and maintain robust health, Dragon and Tiger qigong is also used to help prevent and heal cancer and to mitigate the effects of radiation and chemotherapy. It uses simple body movements to accomplish the same chi balancing as acupuncture. Each movement is designed to stimulate not just a single meridian but groups of meridians. In Chinese medicine, the tiger is a metaphor for a strong, healthy liver and powerful muscles, and the dragon is a metaphor for healthy and strong lungs. The Dragon and Tiger form accomplishes three major changes in the body necessary for healing: it releases stagnant chi energy; increases the speed, strength, and evenness of the circulation of chi, blood, and other fluids; and quickly raises the body's energy levels to boost its natural healing capacities.

This book is the autobiographical account of Charles' life to date. It tells the story of how an inquisitive young boy from a small farming background went soul searching back in the early seventies. His search led him on a journey of self-discovery, which he calls the journey home. This book is a fascinating read of a healer's life. The struggles he had with issues of anger, fear, frustration and sometimes total confusion. Through the many trials and tribulations of his search, he stumbled on the wonderful gift of healing. He talks openly about his own healing works, the highs and the lows and how at one point he nearly packed it all in. However, after all the angles the healing path took him, he reassures the reader that the true sense of power comes from within. He assures us that somehow God has a plan for us all and we should always believe in ourselves and never give up. He was inspired to open his great-grandparents house known as the Castle. This book tells the story of the Castle and explained how the Castle Taiji Healing Centre was born. The centre which now allows him to see hundreds of clients on a regular basis, with the hope of bringing them some peace of mind, so that they too will find their niche - their own "journey home".

Da Yan - Wild Goose Qigong The 2nd 64 movements From ancient times, Qigong was developed as a way of helping improve people's quality of life. It's an important component of the Chinese medical health systems. The art of Qigong consists primarily of meditation, relaxation, physical movement, mind-body integration and breathing exercises. When the mind and body come into a state of balance, stress is reduced and there is an increase in health and longevity. The 2nd 64 Da Yan Wild Goose Qigong movement set deals primarily with the 'pre-natal body' and refers to the energy we gather from the universe and from our ancestors before birth. Having dredged the channels in the 1st 64 movement set, the 2nd 64 movement set is designed to clear the channels to absorb fresh Qi, expel stale Qi and to restore organ balance. The twisting, stretching, bending and pressing movements produce stronger Qi fields and intensify the circulation through the energy channels. In the 2nd 64 movement set the goose is embarking on a great journey and flies out from this world to the edge of the Milky Way, to pick the herbs or gather the pre-natal Qi from the core of the universe. It then flies back to this world to share this healing energy with humanity Simon Blow is a 29th Generation of the Da Yan Wild Goose Qigong, an initiated student of the 28th lineage holder Grand Master Chen Chuan Gang, the eldest son of Grand Master Yang Mei Jung. He is a master teacher (Laoshi) and is the author of numerous books, DVDs and meditation CDs about the ancient Chinese healing arts. Simon has been initiated into Dragon Gate Daoism and given the name 'Xin Si' meaning 'Genuine Wisdom' and is also a Standing Council member of the World Academic Society of Medical Qigong, Beijing, China. 'This is the teaching textbook on Wild Goose Qigong in accordance with the original principles of the ancient masters, accurate instructions for all the movements, genuine meaning and interpretation of the understanding of all the key principles.' Grand Master Chen Chuan Gang 'Qigong makes me feel centered and balanced. I find I am calmer and more able to be the mindful person I wish to be.' Annie 'Qigong makes me feel calm, focused, happy and healthy. I have experienced improved health, both physically and mentally.' Jann

Qigong, and later Tai Chi, were developed and refined carefully over thousands of years with the exact purpose of mindful evolution of body, mind and spirit. Qigong and Tai Chi are major players in the “new” health care system and in the popular movements of personal accountability and empowerment, mind/body medicine, living in the “now” and inner peace. Qigong is the mother of Tai Chi and all of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
