Tai Chi Chih! Joy Thru Movement
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Photos of author/originator illustrate sequence of all 19 movements and 1 pose in this gentle moving meditation which circulates and balances internal energy. Along with brief written instructions, photos provide the reader with an easy way to follow the patterns from start to finish. Introductory sections and those at the end of the book include complete information on the background and philosophy of this holistic discipline which can aid in stress reduction, relaxation, and a number of other physical, mental, and spiritual conditions for which society seeks guidance. Mr. Stone emphasizes that T'ai Chi Chih makes no claims whatsoever about "curing" any condition, though he points to potential benefits of regular practice and relates stories of practitioners who have attributed various kinds of improvement to T'ai Chi Chih.
The author explains how to do the Great Circle Meditation, a seated meditation that complements T'ai Chi Chih/Joy thru Movement, another way of circulating, stimulating and balancing the chi (internal energy).
From the Publisher
This latest edition contains 468 photos sequenced for ease in learning T'ai Chi Chih. It has a lay-flat binding, allowing for the book to stay flat at the page where it is placed. The photo-text can lie on a table or the floor, leaving hands free to perform the movements while referring to the photos and instruction. Written instruction is printed large enough to be read from quite a distance. New sections added from previous editions are "Important Points on Moving Correctly" and "Notes on Movements Just Learned."
