Inner Alchemy

“Inner Alchemy” by Dr. Pedram Shojai, an East medicine doctor and meditation master, expands upon and develops the ideas and practices presented in his bestseller “The Urban Monk.” The book describes problems familiar to every city dweller and offers ways to solve them in 100 days through specific practices and recommendations. The author draws on years of studying ancient Eastern practices; his system is built on their skillful adaptation to the life of a modern city resident.

In the first part, the author presents the philosophy of Daoism and information without which it’s impossible to understand the nature of the energy matrix of the human body—just as it’s impossible to understand the nature of your present-day problems. In the second part, he provides specific exercises and techniques designed to cleanse your energy body and awaken you. Here you’ll find guidance on how to eat, how to sleep, what physical exercises to do, and what simple changes to make in your lifestyle. In the third part, the book offers more complex techniques, as well as a practice scheme that will allow you to literally transform your life in a hundred days.
