Reviews"T'ai Chi Ruler: Chinese Yoga For Health And Longevitypresents an ancient form of Taoist ch'i-kung, using a specially carved wooden dowel, or ruler, held between the palms. The ruler acts as a focusing device to integrate mind and body. Eight internal exercises coordinate movement, breath, mind and vision...Advanced students practice at respiratory rates of two breaths per minute, with complete relaxation, to dynamically complement their t'ai chi chuan or other martial art. Beginners use the ruler as an easy-to-learn and simple-to-perform set of invigorating, yet calming exercises. Others may use it as a 'gymnastic medicine' to recover from illness or severe stress. The core exercises can even be practiced lying down, for those special health challenges." -Midwest Book Review, "T'ai Chi Ruler: Chinese Yoga For Health And Longevity presents an ancient form of Taoist ch'i-kung, using a specially carved wooden dowel, or ruler, held between the palms.
