Qigong: Conversations with Madame Li on Health, Youth and Beauty

The audiobook will help you take a step toward health, youth, and beauty with simple ancient qigong exercises that don’t require much time or effort, with no restrictions by age or illness. The practical material consists of 75 qigong exercises that will help you “turn back the wheel of aging,” and achieve “a long life without sickness and old age.” From the entire ancient legacy, the most effective and universal exercises were selected (massage, breathing, and movements) that have been tested in practice in the health club “White Crane.”

Listeners will be offered texts from the Mawangdui silk scrolls of the Han era, advice from traditional Chinese medicine on proper and moderate nutrition, therapeutic and edible plants. The audiobook is complemented by short storylines related to qigong: reliable facts from Chinese history, philosophy, and medicine; real people who lived in the times of “high antiquity” and helped develop and establish qigong; and poetic quotations from the “silk scrolls.” The legendary Han-era poet Cao Zhi is also represented through lines that will beautify the book.

Every listener will surely find many interesting, useful, and unusual things on the pages of the audiobook. Studying qigong can begin from any chapter of the book. So, listen and start practicing.
