Chi Kung and Feng Shui
Chi Kung and Feng Shui are age old Chinese arts which are used to strengthen and harmonise the energies which keep us alive and well. Chi Kung is dealing with our own internal energy, Feng Shui is working with the energies around us.
During the last decade, both subjects became very popular in the West and a miriad of books is now available. Consequently, the quality of the publications varies widely and is difficult to assess for beginners. The selection below provides an excellent starting point for practicing these highly beneficial arts.
