Healer Within: Using Traditional Chinese Techniques to Release Your Body's Own Medicine *Movement *Massage *Meditation *Breathing

I have suffered from CFS/ME for over 2 years. About 12 months ago i came accross this book "The Healer Within" and was looking for something that offered a bit more than what the Nhs was offering to aid my recovery.For the last 12 months i have done what the book suggests, which is the mild / gentle stretching exercises,self applied massage,deep breathing and relaxation and basic meditation breaks.I have given this book a 5 star rating because not only has the gentle daily practise improved my energy levels and reduced brain fog, it has given me the belief that i can recover and create long term wellness using these four simple methods.I would recomend this book to anyone who has an illness and their recovery has stalled.This book is a gem.

This book is worth a read, there are some important topics discussed, and taken as a part of traditional Chinese martial arts will enrich the whole experience.If you are studying Tai Chi you will be (if you have a good teacher) introduced to some awsome new powers, which everybody has but normally lie dormant and unused. The material in this book helps to harness these powers. Hope you enjoy it.John Crookes.

I'm new to Chinese medicine and this book has really opened my eyes and I now include most of these in my practice.

As a Qigong and tai chi teacher and having spoken in events which included Dr Jahnke I felt I should study his methods further

I got this book as a present from a friend to help with my dexterity and arthitis.I now wake up 30 min earlier every day to practice exercise given in the book - this is not a chore since the exercises feel like a rest and I feel so much beter after them.Would recomend them for beginners and people who want to gently exercise

this book is full of useful advice

A marvellous book, packed full with valuable information. It is "what it says on the box".

It should be on the school curriculum.
