From Bullied To Black Belt is the true sometimes harrowing, always
emotional but in the end, triumphant story of a man's journey.
Since a very early age author Simon Morrell was the victim of
merciless bullying. His torment continued into his adulthood when
the taunting became violent assault. At one point an attempted
stabbing was made on him by a vicious youth hell bent on damaging
Simon. After more beatings Simon eventually succumbed to
agoraphobia and panic attacks and seemed destined to live the life
of the meek, a man afraid to leave his house and not daring to
expand past his small comfort zone. However, something within him
refused to accept defeat and with the help of his wife, the mild
mannered man embarked upon a journey in Martial Arts. His original
goal was to try and find confidence but he surprised all around him
by excelling. Simon became one of the U.K.'s leading Fight Masters
obtaining 6th Dan Black Belt and twice being entered into the Hall
of Fame. From Bullied To Black Belt whilst written by a Martial
Artist is so much more than a book about Martial Arts. It is a
story of a man finding himself when all seemed lost, it is a love
story that may break your heart, it is a story that will leave you
in tears but it is a story that will eventually leave you inspired.
The film of the book is now in development in the United States,
renamed Fight Back. Simon and From Bullied To Black Belt will tell
readers that with courage, anything can be attained.
MARTIAL ARTS / TAOISMGolden 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 the director of the
Tao Garden Health Spa andResort training center in northern
Thailand and the author of twenty-five books, including the
bestselling "The Multi-Orgasmic Man."
