Elliott and Lin have done an excellent job at breaking down the step-by-step method of training in the little known method of Wuji Qi Gong. Their insights into the historical and philosophical basis of the method is truly profound. To my knowledge their explanation of the four primordial elements and the Yi Jing has never before been presented. It has inspired me to delve deeper into my work with this meditation system. Thanks for sharing this gem.

Wuji Qi Gong casts a whole new light on the practice of standing meditation. The authors have done a tremendous job linking the fundamentals of the practice to the ancient concept of the primordial elements and the method to achieve self-transformation and longevity. It is presented in a clear step-by-step way, enabling both the newcomer and long time practitioner to deepen their understanding and experience. It has inspired me to renew my practice of standing meditation and my study of the Yi Jing.

In Wuji Qi Gong, Elliott and Lin shine the light of deep understanding over the Yi Jingby translating its esoteric principles into a series of simple, integrated exercises that will rejuvenate the practitioner. I heartily recommend this book to anyone seeking a meditative “map” that leads to health and longevity.

This ancient archetypal diagram is where the conscious mind, the subconscious mind, and the eternal laws of nature meet for reflection, understanding and integration into daily life. As a teacher and practitioner of TCM, I encourage you to re-examine your practice in the light of these profound ideas about Fire and Water and their part in health and aging.

Indeed, this method connects our inner circuitry to the omnipresent ever flowing qi, allowing it to do what it does – heal, protect, and empower. Without sacrifice, Wuji Qi Gong reveals and simplifies complicated ancient teachings in a way that is manageable for the 21st century Western mind.

Wuji Qi Gong is an excellent introduction to qi gong practice, gently taking the beginner through the fundamentals that apply to both static and moving styles. I like the way the authors root the practice in the discusson of the primordial elements and their novel explanation of the wisdom contained in the trigrams and hexagrams of the Yi Jing, the interpenetration of Yin and Yang, and the subtleties of Chinese internal alchemy.
