Outsmarting Diabetes or Golden Elixir CHI Kung

Outsmarting Diabetes: A Dynamic Approach for Reducing the Effects of Insulin-Dependent Diabetes

Author: Richard S Beaser

From the world-renowned Joslin Diabetes Center and the coauthor of the million-copy seller, The Joslin Diabetes Manual, this book is based on the results of the ten-year Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) from the National Institutes of Health--which proved that intensive control, opposed to standard methods, greatly reduces the effects of diabetes and the risk of long-term complications.

Golden Elixir CHI Kung

Author: Mantak Chia

MARTIAL ARTS / TAOISM

Golden Elixir is the fountain or water of life. It is the combination of saliva, hormonal fluids, and external essences that when mixed together become the Elixir of Immortality.

Saliva has long been considered by Taoists as a key component for optimal health. Some Taoist texts recommend swallowing the saliva up to 1,000 times a day to promote physical healing. Thousands of years ago Taoists became aware of changes in the taste and consistency of saliva that accompanied meditative practices. They learned that combining saliva with the hormonal fluids and essences released during sexual activities forms a powerful elixir. Taoists believe that this Golden Elixir is not only a physical healing agent, but also is a major transformative agent in preparing for higher spiritual work.

Golden Elixir Chi Kung contains twelve postures that develop and utilize the healing power of saliva. Ten of these involve gathering energy and forces through the body’s hair, which acts as a negative-energy filter and can also be used to store surplus positive energy. Taoists regard the hair as antennae extending out into nature and the universe. By utilizing the practices in this book, readers can develop self-healing abilities that revitalize organs and promote longevity and spiritual vitality.

A student of several Taoist masters, Mantak Chia founded the Healing Tao System in North America in 1979 and developed it worldwide as European Tao Yoga and Universal Healing Tao. He has taught and certified tens of thousands of students and instructors from all over the world and tours the United States annually, giving workshops and lectures. He is thedirector of the Tao Garden Health Spa and Resort training center in northern Thailand and the author of twenty-five books, including the bestselling The Multi-Orgasmic Man.
