Kam Chuen Lam - The Qigong Workbook for Anxiety: Powerful Energy Practices to Rebalance Your Nervous System and Free Yourself from Fear

Master Kam Chuen Lam has been a traditional Chinese healer for over forty years. He is also an internationally respected authority in the Chinese health systems of qigong and tai chi. He has produced over ten titles in these subjects and they have been sold across the world in over seventeen languages.

Grandmaster Yu Yongnian wrote the foreword to this workbook months before his death at age 94. He was the worlds leading authority on the rare qigong system known as standing like a tree. As a medical doctor trained in Western medicine, he brought the health benefits of this ancient system into hospitals and clinics throughout China. He was a member of Chinas National Qigong Research Council and was a consultant to the American-Chinese Qigong Research Group. He was also a consultant to the Da Cheng Chuan Zhan Zhuang Chi Kung Research Groups (Europe).

Professor Yu travelled and taught in both Asian and European countries. He supervised the production of Master Kam Chuen Lams first book, The Way of Energy, and appears in both The Way of Power and its companion video in a rare demonstration of his teaching methods and power.

Anxiety is part of the broken brain syndrome that millions of Americans suffer from. Conventional medicine can mask the symptoms, but it doesnt tackle the root cause. Thats what the total mind-body system of qigong does. In this groundbreaking workbook, Master Kam Chuen Lam shows us how to use our own life-force energy to lift our minds and bodies to a new level of wellness. Open this book to any page and youll find its one of the most practical, helpful, and friendly guidebooks to your own well-being you can imagine.

Having worked for over thirty years in a busy and demanding dental practice, I am no stranger to stress at work. I can, without hesitation, attribute my current well-being largely to my daily practice and enjoyment of qigong. Being calm as a practitioner, I am able to bring harmony to the way I run my practice and patients enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. I strongly believe that Master Kam Chuen Lams unique lineage, wisdom, and extensive knowledge [make this book] a must-have for all busy and stressed professionals who also want to remain truly healthy whilst having to endure daily challenges at work and home.

True health is more than exercise and good nutrition. It includes peace of mind. Those who possess it glow and seem to have access to a wellspring of pure energy. If youve ever wondered how to become such a person, qigong Master Kam Chuen Lam can guide you there.

Qigong combines two approaches to treating anxiety that are known to work: exercise and mindfulness. This highly accessible and readable workbook should help many more people enjoy the benefits of qigong.

This book comes at the right time. More than ever, employees and managers are struggling to keep up with the ever-increasing speed and constantly rising demands of business life. The ensuing stress and burnout is literally killing people. Western approaches to dealing with the resulting issues have reached their limits. Master Kam Chuen Lams workbook is addressing the root causeanxietyin a new way. It is based on age-old Chinese wisdom and Lams own lifes work devoted to the study of human energy. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to be successful in the long run.

Thomas Apfel, corporate account manager at IBM

Master Kam Chuen Lams new book about dealing with anxiety is a revelation on its own. During my daily interaction with dental patients, I come across a big percentage of anxiety cases. I have been aiming to incorporate Master Kam Chuen Lams relaxation techniques during treatment. As a result, patients often relax so much that theyre telling us when they get off the dental chair that they feel as if they had a good rest! It is without a doubt, that in this book, various daily issues are addressed in an effective manner. Conventional Western medicine has no ammunition to combat stress or anxiety for everyday life or work. Look no further, Master Kam Chuen Lams new book provides you with the essential elements to survive todays hectic lifestyle and emerge unscathed with simple techniques. Its the first time Ive come across such an informative and to-the-point read. It is a beacon of hope in todays jungle.

Gary Lopes Cunha, LMFT, LPCC, outpatient psychiatry clinician for Kaiser Permanente in Northern California

Master Kam Chuen Lams qigong exercises are like a warm internal shower that relaxes, yet energizes. They seem a perfect antidote to the anxieties of life and aging. Getting older myself and working with elders, as I do, I can attest to their powerful benefits. This workbook is a wonderful guide and support for new and experienced practitioners alike.
