Although Master Tung's Acupuncture has been in the public domain since his untimely passing in 1975, very little information is available publicly on how to use the system in a practical and systematic way in English. In this book, I hope to guide my fellow colleagues into the intricacies of applying Master Tung Acupuncture in the clinic. Since I am also a practicing acupuncturist and deal with pain, women's health, and internal medicine problems quite frequently, I am sharing my clinical experience in this book and the "secret" of creating the protocols that I use daily, with modification. I also attempt to explain why I choose a particular protocol and the modification to it. In this book,...
Master the many styles of Wing Chun Kung Fu with this expert martial arts guide. With the fame of Bruce Lee, the conditions in Hong Kong, and the hard work and effort of many of his classmates, the Wing Chun of the late master Yip Man became one of the most well-known and popular Chinese martial arts in the world. Although this gave Wing Chun international recognition, it also led to a lot of misconceptions. Due to a lack of authentic information, many mistakenly came to assume that the renowned Yip Man was the sole inheritor of the style and that his Wing Chun was the lone version of the art. In fact, there are several different and distinct systems of Wing Chun. Unfortunately, over the yea...
In this book, I use a lot of standard acupuncture points along with Master Tung's acupuncture and emphasize the use of channels and imaging for optimal clinical use. If a practitioner can use this work, they can have a turnkey approach in the clinic, simply by implementing these acupuncture and herbal protocols. The idea is for each disease, I have installed "cheat sheets" for the practitioner to immediately refer to and try to insert needles and prescribe herbs for. The fifth in the series of Master Tung's Acupuncture books, the idea is for someone to start with the Master Tung's Primer, The Best of Master Tung's Acupuncture, Master Tung's Acupuncture for Pain, and Master Tung's Acupuncture...

Detailing plyometric exercises for a variety of sports, this guide explains how plyometrics work and how to incorporate plyometrics into a comprehensive strength and power training program. Illustrations.
This book is a Primer, an introduction of the quintessential basics. Something that a person who has not attended my seminars could read quickly, and immediately familiarize themselves with the core concepts, imaging, channel methods, have a few "go-to" points, and immediately apply the magic of Master Tung's Acupuncture in the clinic. It is not exhaustive in theory, details, or intricacies, but shows the power of the system to a TCM trained acupuncturist and immediately benefit by it. When I first started working with Master Tung's Acupuncture in acupuncture school, I read the available books of that time and wished there was a simple book to present the information. Since the average acupu...
Although Master Tung's Acupuncture has been in the public domain since his untimely passing in 1975, very little information is available publicly on how to use the system in a practical and systematic way in English. In this book, I hope to guide my fellow colleagues into the intricacies of applying Master Tung Acupuncture in the clinic. Since I am also a practicing acupuncturist and deal with Internal Medicine problems quite frequently, I wrote these based on the protocols that I use daily. Each of these protocols has been personally used by me one time or another in the clinic. Many of these are also the same protocols I used when I work daily in my private clinic. Since I am a visual per...
The Six Healing Sounds has a long history in China. Used as a self-cultivation tool, it is based on the principles of Chinese Medicine where sounds have a connection to the internal organs. The Chinese name is Liu Zi Jue, meaning, literally, "six characters knack or secrets." The real meaning behind them is to use the sound syllable to vibrate and massage the internal organs to maintain health, or to heal if one is sick. To the Chinese, to heal means to be in harmony or balance. In fact, that is the goal of all the Chinese healing arts - to bring one into balance. The Six Healing Sounds will strengthen what is deficient, and will sedate what is excess. Six Healing Sounds Made Simple is a bol...
A must-read for modern sanghas--Asian American Buddhists in their own words, on their own terms. Despite the fact that two thirds of U.S. Buddhists identify as Asian American, mainstream perceptions about what it means to be Buddhist in America often whitewash and invisibilize the diverse, inclusive, and intersectional communities that lie at the heart of American Buddhism. Be the Refuge is both critique and celebration, calling out the erasure of Asian American Buddhists while uplifting the complexity and nuance of their authentic stories and vital, thriving communities. Drawn from in-depth interviews with a pan-ethnic, pan-Buddhist group, Be the Refuge is the first book to center young Asi...
