The BEST

December 9, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

One helluva book. Amazing techniques. If practiced with patience and perseverance, one can feel the amazing transformation of the body. Lot of positive vibes and you get a glow on your face like never.

These are some of the techniques that I have benefited from:

Lifting the Sky: Perfect for Morning
Carrying the moon: Swear to god this feels great and the effects are instantaneous
Horse Riding Stance: You can literally feel the energy moving within you after 2 mins in this stance
Golden Bridge : This is a more advanced version of the Horse riding stance. I practice this everyday. This builds internal energy and you become stronger day by day.
Sinew Metamorphosis : Builds internal energy on your arms

Making The Most of a Fantastic Book

April 3, 2005

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I've been studying Chi Kung on my own now for almost 20 years, mostly through books, and as you can imagine I've read quite a few. Though most are quite good I consider THIS one the best out there, especially for someone looking for good general info on this fascinating topic. Beginning students will find a treasure trove of useful exercises, though more advanced practitioners may find some useful tidbits here too.

What makes this book so great is that the exercises are extremely effective and quite simple to practice, and what is more, you don't have to practice them for years to get results. In fact I tried a few myself and noticed a considerable difference in only a few days. Some might find these exercises TOO simple and believe that they just CAN'T be that effective. This is a grave error that illustrates how people often assume that unless something is complicated it isn't worth practicing. Believe me, sometimes the most effective things are the most simple, and once you've practiced some of the exercises in this book you'll understand why.

Makes fantastic claims but some of it is very good.

As a meditative and exercise technique it is interesting. I don't think it can do all it says but it may be helpful to the right minded person. I don't mean correct minded just that it has to fit the person.

A Broad in Depth but Well Explained Volume

June 24, 2009

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I thoroughly enjoyed "The Art of Chi Kung", mostly because it is geared towards non-eastern philosophy savvy people! It is excellent in that regard, and it is very well-written to be communicated across virtually every culture. The author did a fantastic job.

Next, I enjoyed the depth and breadth of exercises that was included. He doesn't give you a specific overall health maintaining regime that you can practice every day, but there is a Qigong for basically any problem you may have.

I love that it was divided essentially into sections, e.g. Qigong for martial arts, for longevity, for healing, for sexual performance. It's very well organized.

very good

The Way of Energy: Mastering the Chinese Art of Internal Strength with Chi Kung Exercise (A Gaia Original) is cited by others, and yes, it is also very good. This book has several individual exercises, and other discussions. It is not an Encyclopedia Brittanica of Chi Kung, no book could be, but if you're only going to buy 2 books in the field, this one and The Way of Energy are a good choice.

A thought-provoking and speculative reminding book.

August 16, 2012

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I have in the title used the word thought-provoking as many persons just won't believe subjects as for example thought translating which we among other also is getting in the book. But actually I bought the book after having discovered the existence of Chi Kung, and for then going to se if the Chi Kung training can help me to again getting the brain to manage the movements of the right arm. For this arm the cut over nerves was reconnected 4 years ago (3 month after the accident), but the right hand still don't react on messages from the brain. And where it in the writings concerning Chi Kung is looking like it should be the kind of "yoga" which are lying on the highest level.

The book contains much good and interesting writings, that is that it's easy to read, and as Wong Kiew Kit many times repeat, we don't need to unconditional trust him, but he will try by examples to convince us that al what he tells us really has happened and can happen again.

So instead of only learning about the training of the body and soul I also got many interesting and god memories from the past history, among other the reminding about how persons who came with new, and correct, ideas came into problem with the established class of science at their time. As for example on side 120 where he mentions Semmelweis who in Germany argued for surgeons washing their hands. But it's a shame that he in the writing is missing some details. Actually the case was that the professors first in the morning, for the students, were showing cutting in dead bodies, and after this, without washing their hands, went on to do surgery, and many patients died. Until Semmelweis took care of the department and then nearly nobody died, and he was thrown out, and then again most patients died after the surgeries.

And when I read the chapters 18 and 19, "Chi Kung Feats You Will Not Believe" and "Distant Chi Transmissions", I among other recalled Uri Geller. Uri Geller was in Denmark back in 1974, and in TV, the 26 of January, which I still recall, and how we the following days in the news heard about persons who were watching TV, and without their plans, was brought to sleep, and persons whose wristwatches stopped, and so on.

And on side 26 Wong Kiew Kit tells about one of his pupils who from Australia telephoned to him concerning her eye problem. And this recalled to me a case with Rasputin, happening about 98 years ago. The son of the Czar of Russia suffered of being a bleeder. And one day when the Czar and son were long away from Moscow and the son got at wound and they telephoned to Rasputin, and he by telephone made the bleeding stop. So without doubt there is some reality concerning results over distances without having any physical contact.

But again, this book was bought for trying to learn about Chi Kung and se if it can help me concerning the right hand problem, but it was very interesting among other also to read about cases concerning Distant Chi Transmissions. So we will see what the future will bring of more knowledge.

Master Teacher Indeed

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I have noticed that fine teachers dispel tensions and apprehensions in their students, while ineffectual teachers positively strain to load them on. Sifu Wong is totally at home with his art; humorous, warm, and supporting. He never communicates a whisper of doubt about the prospect of teaching essential Chi Kung through the medium of a modest seeming book. I was immediately hooked on the practice. Sifu Wong's own attitude is undiminished childlike astonishment and wonder at the power of Chi Play. One does not want to stop! It is this infectiously joyous, self-aware, but un-self-conscious spirit which truly welcomes and encourages the student.
