Qi Energy for Health and Healing

As a retiree on a teacher's pension, I am always alert to ways to maintain my health, and this is one of the best so far.Dr. Fromm has distilled 20 years' experience in an amazingly simple, hands-on healing and maintenance technique that I am now using on myself and others with great success. With this book as a guide, several friends and I regularly transmit qi to one another. We've experienced immediate pain relief, for example, and we are all energized in the process, whether giving or receiving. Fromm focuses on women's issues--menstruation, pregnancy, and childbirth, and includes invaluable advice for assisting the old and the dying. He includes fascinating and inspiring case histories. Somehow he manages to convey all this in a tone so warm, humorous, and conversational that it's like having him at your elbow. The illustrations and instructions make the whole endeavor crystal clear.I wish I had had this book years ago, and I hope I can be instrumental in turning others on to it.

Intelligent and Irresistible

Let me say first that the tone of the book is irresistible. It is written for an intelligent audience (actually, I have the feeling Dr.Fromm wrote with intelligent women in mind) and the style is insightful and humorous. He presents a large amount of useful information in a very engaging way. The book covers all aspects of life--sex, reproduction, birth, development, and aging--and concludes with a moving meditation on death.The case histories presented together with the information (for example, dealing with emotional trauma, pre-natal child care, caretaking the elderly, etc.)are themselves fascinating, and kept me turning the pages to learn more. I might also add that the book is very well-produced, and the numerous illustrations give the anatomically-illiterate reader like myself a sure understanding of what-where-how to do the exercises to promote health in oneself and in others. I believe that the curious and intelligent reader will enjoy and benefit from this book, and so I urge people to read it.
