TAOIST CHI KUNG is well known for developing and refining the Three Treasures-Essence, Energy, and Spirit-to manifest our highest potential as human beings. This process is called Inner-Alchemy. Inner-Alchemy is defined as the transformation of base to refined, taking the ordinary and materially bound consciousness through a step-by-step journey to Universal Presence. Since ancient times the precise steps for this process and their exact order have been known but shrouded in secrecy.

- Strategies tells the story of this process as handed down through the Hua Shan Taoist Chi Kung lineage.

- Strategies reveals the energetic principals of 108 exercises that are designed to nourish Essence (Jing - Level 1), matriculate latent transformational powers (Chi - Level 2), and harmonize man with the Divine (Shen - Level 3).

- Strategies is an educational book, not an instructional manual. Larry Johnson has studied Chi Kung for more than 30 years. A doctor of Oriental Medicine, Larry specializes in teaching Chi Kung and Tai Chi for the treatment of disease and maintenance of optimal health.
