I absolutely loved this book. I have always been fascinated in With Gong and actually have went to classes and even spent a weekend with a Qi Gong Master. I love how the author shares his story in a way that is not only informational but fascinating, almost as if you were with him during these life experiences. I was left rejuvenated and excited to continue learning and practicing Qi Gong.

I had just begun to study Qi Gong with a local master here in Philadelphia when I stumbled upon this book in a bookstore while visiting my late sister in L.A. in the late 90s. Clearly Master Liu contributed to saving my life with his explanations of the long term effects of consistent daily practice. Fifteen days in to the recommended 100 days of Practice I began having a variety of amazing experiences one of which was managing chronic fatigue. My daily practice gave me a new life and helped me remain hiv med free for 33 years. Now at 61 I’m grateful for this practice sparing me the side effects of the early more toxic hiv drugs.

Book of the Day – Mastering Miracles
Today’s Book of the Day is Mastering Miracles written by Baron Baptiste in 2016 and published by Hay House Inc.
Dr. Hong Liu is a renowned expert in Western conventional medicine and Qi Gong holistic healing methods.
I have chosen this book because it is a good complement to the teachings I often give to people at the beginning of their journey into Qi Gong.
Mastering Miracles is a profound exploration of healing that bridges the gap between ancient Eastern practices and modern Western understanding. Rooted in the author’s personal journey as both a practitioner and student of Chinese medicine, the book offers an inspiring narrative about the extraordinary potential of the human body and spirit.
Dr. Liu, having been trained in Qi Gong and herbal medicine by revered Chinese masters, shares not only the techniques and theories of these practices but also the spiritual philosophy underpinning them.
At its core, the book emphasizes the interconnectedness of all things—mind, body, soul, and the universe—and how this awareness can lead to transformative healing. Dr. Liu shares with the readers his own experiences of miraculous recoveries, both as a healer and a witness, demonstrating the power of Qi, the life force energy. These accounts, while seemingly mystical, are presented with sincerity and groundedness, making even the extraordinary seem attainable to readers willing to embrace the principles he outlines.
One of the most interesting aspects of this book is its focus on balance—both within ourselves and in our interactions with the world around us. The author conveys the importance of harmony in all aspects of life, a concept that is deeply rooted in TCM – Traditional Chinese Medicine. He explains that illnesses often stem from disharmony, whether physical, emotional, or spiritual. By addressing these imbalances, healing becomes a natural consequence rather than an isolated intervention.
The book also explains in detail the practical applications of Qi Gong. Dr. Liu’s explanations of Qi Gong are detailed yet accessible, illustrating how these seemingly simple exercises can unlock profound healing capabilities. He emphasizes the importance of practice, patience, and intention, urging readers to take an active role in their own well-being. Through Qi Gong, one learns not only to heal but also to cultivate resilience and vitality, fostering a deeper connection to oneself and the universe.
While the subject matter is deeply rooted in ancient traditions, Mastering Miracles does not shy away from engaging with modern science. The author acknowledges the scepticism that often surrounds topics like energy healing and Qi Gong, yet he presents compelling evidence and anecdotes that challenge such scepticism.
By brilliantly integrating scientific insights with ancient wisdom, he creates a narrative that is both timeless and relevant, inviting readers from all backgrounds to consider the possibilities of this holistic approach.
Beyond the techniques and theories, Mastering Miracles is also a spiritual guide to living a life of greater awareness, compassion, and purpose. Dr. Liu’s teachings encourage readers to look beyond their immediate struggles and see themselves as part of a larger, interconnected whole. This perspective not only fosters healing but also inspires a profound sense of gratitude and humility.
For those open to exploring the intersection of science, spirituality, and medicine, Mastering Miracles is a recommended read.
It challenges conventional notions of health and healing while offering a path that is as enriching as it is empowering. Through Dr. Liu’s stories, wisdom, and practical advice, readers are reminded of the innate power within them to create, restore, and nurture miracles—not just in their own lives but in the lives of others as well.
