Cupping
Massage Cupping is a special treatment of Chinese traditional treasures of medicines. Cupping is very popular for its virtues of its simplicity, low charges, convenient handling, effective clinic treatment, obvious health care and no toxic side effect. Through the use of cups, Cupping makes the skin congest, blood stagnate and blister by adsorbing the cups on the positions owing to the negative intensity of pressure caused by removing the air in the cups through burning or taking the air out, thus motivates the function of the channel, meridians or vessels in the cupping points and makes the blood and breath vigorous so as to serve the purpose of protecting and curing diseases.

 The Book That Jesus Wrote Barbara Thiering’s previous works have been bestsellers in her native Australia, and Focus magazine said that the impact of her work ‘...may turn out to be as profound as that of Darwin’s Origin of the Species’. This new book continues to reveal the ‘real’ Jesus and the history of his time by applying to the New Testament the insights and information contained in the Dead Sea Scrolls. The author argues that the Gospel of John was in fact written in code, by Jesus himself. She carefully analyses all the miracles and supernatural events to show that they did not happen as described. Instead, for those who understand the code, they provide a record of the development of the new religion that went on to lay the foundation of Western culture.

Transmission of Light: Zen in the Art
of Enlightenment, Translated by Thomas Cleary A translation of the classic Denkoroku by one of the premier translators of Buddhist and Taoist texts illustrates how to arrive at the epiphanic Zen awakening known as satori. The essential initiatory experience of Zen, satori is believed to open up the direct perception of things as they are. "Even if you sit until your seat breaks through, even if you persevere mindless of fatigue, even if you are a person of lofty deeds and pure behavior, if you haven't reached this realm of satori, you still can't get out of the prison of the world." Deliberately cultivated and employed to awaken the dormant potency of the mind, satori is said to be accessible to all people, transcending time, history, culture, race, gender, and personality. Attributed to the thirteenth-century Zen Master Keizan (1268-1325), Transmission of Light (along with The Blue Cliff Record and The Gateless Barrier ) is one of three essential koan texts used by Zen students. Techniques for reaching the enlightening experience of satori are revealed through fifty-three short tales about the awakenings of successive generations of masters, beginning with the twelfth-century Zen master Ejo, dharma heir to Dogen. The translator's introduction establishes the context for Transmission of Light within the Zen canon and elucidates central themes of the work, including the essential idea that genuine satori "is not the end of Zen; it is more properly the true beginning." |

Active
Isolated Stretching
This 45 mins video contains Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) techniques developed by Aaron Mattes. AIS attempts to isolate particular muscle and stretching the muscle for 1-2 seconds as opposed to the conventional prolonged 10-60 seconds. The argument is prolonged static stretching actually decreases the blood flow within the tissue creating localized ischemia and lactic acid buildup. Stretches up to 2 seconds allows the target muscle to optimally lengthen without triggering the protective stretch reflex and subsequent reciprocal antagonistic muscle contraction. Lance Mattes clearly demonstrates self stretching techniques for neck & shoulder, arm & hand, leg & foot. The techniques are useful for everyone, therapists, sports athlete, and patient. This book is a great companion to Aaron Mattes' book. |
