Synopsis "Bone Narrow nei Kung: Taoist Techniques for Rejuvenating the Blood and Bone "

A guide to nourishing the body through bone marrow rejuvenation exercises • Presents exercises to “regrow” bone marrow, revive the internal organs, and prevent osteoporosis • Explains the use of bone breathing and bone compression, “hitting” to detoxify the body, and sexual energy massage and chi weight lifting to enhance the life force within Most Westerners believe that a daily physical exercise program helps slow the aging process. Yet those whose bodies appear most physically fit on the outside often enjoy only the same life span as the average nonathletic person. It is the internal organs and glands that nourish every function of the body, and it is the bone marrow that nourishes and rejuvenates the organs and glands through the production of blood. By focusing only on the muscles without cultivating the internal organs, bones, and blood, the Western fitness regimen can ultimately exhaust the internal system. In Bone Marrow Nei Kung Master Mantak Chia reveals the ancient mental and physical Taoist techniques used to “regrow” bone marrow, strengthen the bones, and rejuvenate the organs and glands. An advanced practice of Iron Shirt Chi Kung, Bone Marrow Nei Kung was developed as a way to attain the “steel body” coveted in the fields of Chinese medicine and martial arts. This method of absorbing energy into the bones revives the bone marrow and reverses the effects of aging through the techniques of bone breathing, bone compression, and sexual energy massage, which stimulates the hormonal production that helps prevent osteoporosis. Also included is extensive information on chi weight lifting and the practice of “hitting” to detoxify the body.

Mantak Chia, born in 1944 in Thailand, is a renowned Taoist master, instructor, and writer specialized in internal energy practices and holistic well-being. From an early age, he studied Buddhist techniques and martial arts such as Muay Thai, tai chi chuan, and kung-fu. His training was enriched under the guidance of Yi Eng (White Cloud), a hermit from the Dragon's Gate sect of the Quanzhen Taoist school, who taught him a complete Taoist training system and authorized him to teach and heal. To better understand the physiological mechanisms underlying the theory of healing energy, Chia studied anatomy and Western medical science for two years.

Among his most notable works are Chi Self-Massage: the Taoist Way of Rejuvenation (1990), The Multi-Orgasmic Man: Sexual Secrets Every Man Should Know (1997), and Healing Light of the Tao: Foundational Practices to Awaken Chi Energy (2000). These books, focused on the development of internal energy and overall health, have been translated into several languages, including Spanish, and have contributed to the spread of Taoist practices in the West.
