"Zibin Guo brings the benefits of Tai Chi to everyone through demonstrating forms for seated practice and other adaptations. Ultimately, Tai Chi's benefits are not from physical exercise alone. They come primarily from feeling and flowing life energy in a relaxed state of moving meditation. That's why physical disability is not a barrier to developing Chi." -- Master Waysun Liao , author of T'ai Chi Classics "This is a beautifully rendered exploration of the power of Tai Chi to transform mind and body in people of all physical conditions. Dr. Guo deftly presents the philosophical and historical foundation of Tai Chi, along with a description of his methodical and thoughtful development of an Adaptive Tai Chi protocol, which has the underlying aim to transform disability and vulnerability into a source of power. The practice is clearly and poetically described with the use of poignant metaphors, personal stories, informative text inserts, and illustrations to describe transformative concepts. For example, Dr. Guo offers Adaptive Tai Chi as a mechanism to strengthen the body through empowering the mind and to maintain equilibrium in the midst of challenges and change. Personal and universal, this book is inspiring and evokes a sense of hope." -- Madeline Uddo, PhD , trauma researcher and therapist "Whether for general health care or rehabilitation, Dr. Zibin Guo's system is a practical and empowering version of Tai Chi for a variety of physical and mental abilities. I celebrate this resource as both a health care provider and a teacher of Tai Chi and Qi Gong! It facilitates the art of Tai Chi throughout life's changes and challenges." -- Sally Chang , teacher and practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine "A unique, well-illustrated, and easy-to-read Tai Chi program for people with different mobility levels and health conditions." -- Weibin Yang , MD, MS, MBA, Chief of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Service, VA North Texas Health Care System "Western medical research now supports what has been known for centuries in the East: Tai Chi is one of the most effective tools for restoring and maintaining health across the lifespan. Drawing on decades of training in Tai Chi and frontline healthcare research, Dr. Zibin Guo beautifully transmits the essential therapeutic principles of Tai Chi that integrate mind, body, and spirit. This is an inspiring and practical resource for new and seasoned practitioners of Tai Chi at all stages of health, as well as for teachers of all movement-based mind-body practices." -- Peter M. Wayne, PhD , author of The Harvard Medical School Guide to Tai Chi "Empowering the spirit is as essential to well-being as is movement. Dr Guo has created a powerful combination of movement and meditation that gives people with mobility limitations access to 'flow' as part of everyday life. I highly recommend this book to any professional working with people with mobility issues and to people who use mobility assists." -- Mary Gannotti, PT, PhD , Professor, Department of Rehabilitation Sciences

    The seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!

    Leaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration
