  Compiled by 20 of the world's most eminent practitioners, this is an illustrated guide to Chi Kung - the art of cultivating energy for health and well being. It covers a broad range of Chi Kung practice, ideas about Chi Kung, and ways of using Chi Kung to improve your life and health. The book explains the meaning of Chi Kung - cultivating energy - and discusses energy in our lives and world. Fully illustrated with step by step guidance and using experienced chi kung practioners as models, the text aims to make Chi Kung practice clear for the reader. The text is also designed to make Chi Kung relevant for the reader - showing how energy is part of each of our lives. Chi Kung practice is introduced in three main parts: simple beginners practice - including breathing, becoming aware of your energy, becoming aware of your movement; learning to use Chi Kung - and work with related concepts such as meridians and the 12 Chi Kung points; and ways of using Chi Kung in everyday life - at work, during sleep, for babies and children, for the elderly, and with your partner.
