Sexual techniques and traditional Chinese medicine for increased pleasure

• Reveals how to enhance relationships by harmonizing male and female energies

• Includes easy-to-follow, illustrated acupressure massage routines

Taught to Chinese emperors, their wives, and their concubines for thousands of years, Taoist sexual techniques help lovers harmonize their cycles of pleasure and utilize the abundance of reproductive power that is otherwise wasted in non-procreative sex. Combining the study of sex with traditional Chinese medicine, these practices stimulate and sustain sexual desire through the meridians and pressure points and enhance relationships by harmonizing male (yang) and female (yin) energies.

Using easy-to-follow illustrations, Taoist Foreplay guides lovers through simple acupressure massage routines connecting all the points and channels that increase pleasure and spark arousal. It shows how to prolong peak moments, maintain sexual health through prostate massage and jade egg exercises, and sustain the intensity of first love through all the seasons of a maturing relationship. It also explains how to reveal and overcome incompatibility with the Taoist Zodiac. From foreplay to climax, these practices offer a way to keep the flame of sexual energy alive.

[Neža Newton · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good description of basic knowledge of the meridians and the points for acupressure, also little interesting stories from the history, but very little overall guidance on the energy cultivation to put it all in context. There is no clear direction on what to do with the awakened energy, which is the whole purpose of awakening it in the first place.
