Qigong pronounced "chee-gung" , which literally means "working with the energy of life," is an integrated mind-body healing method that has been practiced with remarkable results in China for thousands of years. The Chinese have long treasured qigong for its effectiveness both in healing and preventing disease. More recently, they have used it in conjunction with modern medicine to cure cancer, immune-system disorders, and other life-threatening conditions. Now, renowned qigong master and China scholar Kenneth S. Cohen brings the ancient healing power of qigong to Western listeners.

"The Way of Qigong" is filled with solid, practical exercises and guidance, providing an easy-to-follow program for working with our life energy through breathing and relaxation, meditation, visualization, and other natural methods. The benefits of qigong are obvious in those who practice it: increased strength, heightened sexuality, sounder sleep, clearer intuition, a more efficient and active metabolism, and minds and bodies that celebrate the harmony of true health.
