In today's high-powered world, women frequently find themselves
pulled in many different directions. As they try to balance the
demands of careers and family life, they are too often left with a
feeling of imbalance, a feeling that can manifest in both physical
and emotional stress. To reclaim their equilibrium and find relief,
more and more women are turning to qigong, a low-impact,
time-efficient daily practice of gentle exercises based on the
ancient concept of acupuncture meridians. Developed and enriched
over two thousand years by Taoist and Buddhist doctors and monks,
chi kung offers techniques for improving breath control and mental
concentration, releasing stress through self-administered massage
and acupressure, and reaching and maintaining desired weight.
In "Qigong for Women," Dominique Ferraro gives step-by-step
instructions, accompanied by photos, for dozens of exercises that
address the specific concerns of women. Along with chapters on
stress relief, aging, and physical toning, Ferraro includes
information on female sexuality, osteoporosis, menstrual
difficulties, and problems related to pregnancy. Through regular
practice of chi kung, women can improve blood circulation,
reinforce the immune system, and reestablish emotional equilibrium.
Middle-aged and older women will enjoy the added benefits of
recovering elasticity, whether in their joints or in their psyches.
Valuable for all ages, "Qigong for Women "provides a system, both
preventive and curative, to maintain the sense of well-being that
we all deserve.
