Reveal the Ancient Taoist Secrets: Slimming Crystals for Effortless Weight Loss Even With a Sedentary Lifestyle! Wear It and Let the Process Start - It Doesn't Get More Effortless Than This When I was first introduced to the world of crystals, it was a life-changing event. I didn't realize that I had been at the mercy of "energy" all my life. At my first meeting with crystal store owner, he told me my digestive system is in terrible conditions and he was right. This shocked me of course because he doesn't know me at all. Unfortunately, my physical condition was already near the point of spiraling out of control. I started coughing out blood clots every morning for two straight months. Within two months, My figure looked like the pictures of the gaunt Steve Jobs in his last days. One of the most common outward appearance of individuals with little life energy left is that of gaunt facial and body image. Even though I felt my life energy is dwindling, every time I wore my crystals, I felt alive again. I have the energy to get by and to survive. My faith led to me to many other "masters and gurus" from whom I learned neigong (aka qigong), yoga, fengshui and more. As I lifted myself from life-and-death borderline, I sought to raise my life-energy in any ways possible. One of them is eating. Another reason was I was living in a place with horrible energy. When you stay in a place like that, your instinct is to eat and eat. Yes, the place you stay in can have a huge effect on your weight. And this book will give you a way to counter this damage. Anyway, I become extremely overweight (5 feet 9 and over 200 pounds). I didn't really care much because when you are sick, physical image is the last thing on your mind. However, I eventually took notice when I had to get new pants and clothes that were multiple sizes larger and my waist looked wider than my shoulders. This is now alarming. Another reason is I got fat-shamed… This shocked me because I never experienced this before. Story in short, I quickly lost those weights in roughly two months. 60 pounds, to be exact. By using the knowledge of Qi, I implemented a weight loss walking meditation. Unfortunately, I accepted a job that now requires me to sit at a desk for over 8 hours a day including meals at-the-desk. That means I won't even have time to do my "Ancient Monks' Super Walk". As I worked at the desktop feeling horrible needing to snack, I thought back to the days I was wearing crystals during my extremely sick days. With my knowledge of crystals, I realized what I could do to help my body maintain its figure even I have to stay sedentary for an extended period… In Summary Unveiling the Taoist Formula: Harmonizing Qi and Food for Effortless Weight Loss Discover the profound Taoist formula that unlocks the synergy between Qi and food.

In this pathbreaking study of three of the most familiar texts in the Chinese tradition--all concerning stones endowed with magical properties--Jing Wang develops a monumental reconstruction of ancient Chinese stone lore. Wang's thorough and systematic comparison of these classic works illuminates the various tellings of the stone story and provides new insight into major topics in traditional Chinese literature. Bringing together Chinese myth, religion, folklore, art, and literature, this book is the first in any language to amass the sources of stone myth and stone lore in Chinese culture. Uniting classical Chinese studies with contemporary Western theoretical concerns, Wang examines these stone narratives by analyzing intertextuality within Chinese traditions. She offers revelatory interpretations to long-standing critical issues, such as the paradoxical character of the monkey in The Journey to the West, the circularity of narrative logic in The Dream of the Red Chamber, and the structural necessity of the stone tablet in Water Margin. By both challenging and incorporating traditional sinological scholarship, Wang's The Story of Stone reveals the ideological ramifications of these three literary works on Chinese cultural history and makes the past relevant to contemporary intellectual discourse. Specialists in Chinese literature and culture, comparative literature, literary theory, and religious studies will find much of interest in this outstanding work, which is sure to become a standard reference on the subject.

In Taoist literature, such as Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching", these principles are explored and guided, allowing for rewarding and enlightening practice.

Dancing the Tao: Le Guin and Moral Development takes an original approach to Ursula K. Le Guin’s work – speculative fiction, poetry and children’s literature – by considering her Taoist upbringing and then looking through the lens of moral development theorists such as Carol Gilligan and Mary Field Belenky, and psychologists such as Lenore Terr and Jennifer J. Freyd. It is the most comprehensive approach to Le Guin’s moral thinking to date. A particular emphasis is put on Le Guin’s depiction of physical and sexual child abuse and its long term aftereffects such as post traumatic stress disorder. The focus throughout the book is on how morality develops through self-awareness and voice, how moral decisions are made and how Le Guin challenges readers to reconsider their own moral thinking. This book covers all of Le Guin’s major works such as The Left Hand of Darkness, The Dispossessed, the Earthsea Series, Always Coming Home, The Telling and Lavinia, and it also looks in depth at work that is rarely discussed such as Le Guin’s early work, her poetry, and her picture books.
