The Wei-Jin Spirit as Exhibited by Women in the Shishuo Xinyu 世說新語 in the Private Family S
Compared with other Chinese dynasties, the Wei-Jin period witnesses the emergence of a distinctive social fashion referred to by the academic field as the Wei-Jin spirit. Previous scholarly studies about the Wei-Jin spirit tend to neglect women, pay significant attention to elite men, and take political and public interactions as their primary research areas. This thesis instead focuses on the Wei-Jin spirit as exhibited by women in the Shishuo xinyu in the private family space, thus making up for the deficiency of previous research on the Wei-Jin spirit.

Heavenly Streams
The art of connecting with, feeling and adjusting the energy body using the consciousness is a key aspect of Nei Gong and Qi Gong. It sits somewhere between Qi Gong, meditation and the lesser-known art of Shen Gong, and although it is known in China it has never before been written about in an accessible way in the West. Damo Mitchell provides step-by-step instructions on how to experience the various elements which make up the energy body, explaining how to identify and feel these, and how to diagnose imbalances and restore harmony. He describes the nature of the five elements, the meridians and the meridian points, inviting the reader to experience them through guided internal exercises using the body, breath and mind. Instructional drawings and photographs are included throughout the book. Connecting the fundamentals of Chinese medicine with the lesser-known spiritual and esoteric aspects of practice, this book will be of great interest to intermediate and advanced practitioners of Qi Gong, Nei Gong, Taijiquan and Chinese medicine.
Daoist Nei Gong for Women
Although the energetic anatomy of men and women is different, the ancient teachings of Nu Dan, a separate branch of internal alchemy for women, have been lost in the literature over the centuries and only survive through practice in the lineages. This book takes a detailed look at female energetic anatomy, exploring how it is different from its male counterpart, and explains and describes the specific practices which support the unique strengths and challenges that the female energy system presents. Previously wrapped in secrecy, the teachings in this book include qigong exercises that activate the energy of the uterus and an explanation of how menstruation and a connection to the cycles of the moon can be converted into a tool for Nei Gong development.
