Chi Energy Workbook: A Practical Guide to the Essence That Links All Holistic Therapies

by Simon G. Brown, Carroll & Brown

From a best-selling author and internationally regarded feng shui consultant comes a groundbreaking and thoroughly practical workbook on understanding chi—the essential energy behind every holistic therapy.

Chi is the power that makes every form of holistic healing and wellness work, from shiatsu to feng shui, from Reiki to moxibustion. This practical, invaluable, and fully illustrated workbook contains the secrets of generating that vital force and living a happier, healthier life. It explains in a clear and lucid way the mind-body connection; teaches you how to sense your own chi energy field (and interact with those of others); and shows how to create a more balanced lifestyle. Color photographs display a variety of exercises—including t’ai chi and chi gong —as well as therapies, such as acupressure, that will improve sleep, beat stress, and get the energy flowing. There are even delicious chi-boosting recipes that nourish body and soul. Throughout, the author’s boxed tips help keep you on the right track as these positive strategies become an indispensable part of your life. A Main Selection of One Spirit Bookclub.

About the author

From the authors website:

I studied macrobiotics in nineteen eighty in London and went to the USA to study with Michio Kushi, Aveline Kushi, Shizuko Yamamoto and Denny Waxman. Whilst there I ran the Macrobiotic Association of Philadelphia. Returning to London I became the director of London's Community Health Foundation, the leading macrobiotic centre in the UK, from 1986 to 1993. I co-authored ‘Against All Odds’ with Dr. Faulkner charting his macrobiotic recovery from Pancreatic cancer. I regularly hosted courses for Michio and Aveline Kushi and Shizuko Yamamoto.

Whilst at the Community Health Centre I ran the fist large feng shui courses in the UK with William Spear and Takashi Yoshikawa. I left the CHF in 1993 to persue a freelance career in feng shui, macrobiotics, face reading and shiatsu living in London and travelling thoughout the UK, Europe and USA.

Since 1993 I have worked as a macrobiotic consultant, macrobiotic teacher, feng shui teacher, feng shui consultant and shiatsu practitioner. I have written numerous books including ‘Practical Feng Shui’, ‘The Practical Art of Face Reading’, ‘The Chi Energy Workbook’, 'Modern Day Macrobiotics', 'The Feng Shui Bible' 'Astrology by Numbers' 'Practical Wabi Sabi' and ‘The Energy Booster Workout’. I am currently involved in the macrobiotic shop Luscious Organic in Kensington High Street with my wife Dragana.

I offer one to one training days in feng shui, macrobiotics and shiatsu. These are flexible and can be adapted to what ever you are looking for. I also provide consultations in feng shui, nine ki astrology and macrobiotics as well as shiatsu massage sessions in London. I also work as a feng shui expert, face reader and macrobiotic expert for the media.

My appraoch is friendly, open and positive. I take a non judgemental approach to my work with people and my emphasis is on empowering my clients in their lives rather than risk enslaving anyone to any doctrine.

I am a member of the Feng Shui Society of Great Britain, the Macrobiotic Association of Great Britain and the Shiatsu Society of Great Britain and abide by their proffessional ethics.

Good read for beginners.
We are energy.
Our feelings and thoughts create our reality.
Good vibrations are the frequency we need to manifest what we truly desire.
