Product Description
Taoist meditation practices for increasing and maintaining mental awareness, memory, and clarity
? Details techniques to increase the level of chi energy in the brain
? Explains how to synchronize the left and right brain by activating the body?s energetic potentials
? Shows that by emptying the mind there is more energy to heal the body
Wisdom Chi Kung teaches practitioners how to revitalize the brain: to repair function, increase memory, and expand capacity. Every day we use up so much of our brain?s capacity to function that we have very little left at the end of the day. By thinking or worrying too much, the brain can use up to 80 percent of the body?s entire energy reserve. Learning to stop the brain, to empty the mind from the ceaseless chatter of the ?monkey mind,? and then recharge it with chi energy can increase our mental capacity, focus, and clarity.
Using the Inner Smile meditation technique, practitioners learn how to recharge chi energy for the brain in a form that is most useful. Practitioners smile and empty the mind into the lower tan tien and the organs. The organs then transform this chi energy. When the mind is empty, the energy transformed by the organs is sent back to the brain to revitalize it. This process synchronizes the left and right brain by activating and tapping in to the body?s energetic potentials. As the mind continues to empty, receive, and also enhance the transformed chi energy, it is able to open itself to connect with universal chi energies and fill the body with enhanced life force.

 Meditate your way to health and contentment September 5, 2008
The author has written many books and they all tell pretty much the same story. They promote a form of meditation that encourages the flow of chi through your body, leading to better physical and emotional health. The language lands strangely on Western ears, but the meditation works.
 Raise Your Chi! July 21, 2008
15 out of 16 found this review helpful
As a long-time Feng Shui practitioner, I am well aware of the importance of life-affirming energy. The Wisdom Chi Kung: Practices for Enlivening the Brain with Chi Energy, by Mantak Chia, explains how to rid oneself of the "monkey chatter" and live a more clear, calm and vitalized existence.
After reading the book, I began the Inner Smile meditation technique with impressive results. I had been too agitated to begin a large projects these past few months and now I have dug right in! I feel calmer--more centered--and am easily able to focus on my project.
Well written and concise, I highly recommend this book.
I would also like to recommend two other books that will help raise the life-affirming energy in your home, which helps improve your chi. As a Feng Shui practitioner, I see many improvements, including greater clarity and calmness in my client's lives when I help them raise the chi energy in their homes. if clutter is a problem, try Clear Your Clutter With Feng Shui. For overall tips on raising the energy in your home, try: Harmonious Environment: Beautify, Detoxify and Energize Your Life, Your Home and Your Planet.
