Little Book of Qi is written for anyone who wants to know more about the mysterious energy known as Qi and how to enhance it through Qigong and Tai Chi practice. The author connects insights developed by ancient Taoists, hermits, healers, and warriors for over thousands of years. The book includes Buddhist teaching, feminism, and modern scientific understanding of ourselves and the universe. Janet shares memories of her own journey as a Tai Chi student growing in her practice. Her stories take us into the exciting time at the nexus of the women's movement and the development of the martial arts on the west coast when women took their place as teachers and warriors. Janet includes simple Qigong practices that allow the reader to experience the principles she teaches in each chapter. These pracitces are healing and restorative. They strengthen the body, calm the mind, and lighten the spirit. Simu Seaforth s Little Book of Qi is a fascinating journey into both the ancient roots of Tai Chi and Qigong, as well as the awareness of the energetic nature of our bodies and the universe - a centering inner awareness more important in today s rapid change than at any time in human history. -William Douglas, Jr., author of The Gospel of Science: Mind-Blowing New Science on Ancient Truths to Heal Our Stress, Lives, and Planet (2nd EDITION, Jan. 1, 2022) and Founder of World Tai Chi and Qigong Day.

From the esoteric to the practical key concepts from Qigong, Tai Chi and Daoism are interwoven through relatable stories, descriptions, and movement practices. A great read to all Qi cultivators. -Lori Furbush, former Chairperson, Board of Directors at National Qigong Association, teacher at Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Qigong, Yin Yoga, Reiki, and author of Elemental Moves: Qigong Practices Inspired by Nature.
