Paperback
This little book takes ancient Taoist methods of achieving tranquility, inner peace, and health and presents them in a modern perspective. Through the paths of mentally releasing, self-massaging, and breathing the reader is given the necessary tools for ridding themselves of stress.
Stripped of the cryptic language often found in Taoist works, this informative and insightful book about the workings of stress and its elimination is very easy to understand and the techniques are simple to employ into anyone's daily life.
- Teaches the three paths that Taoist masters have used
for centuries to create tranquility in one's life.
- Adapts ancient Taoist wisdom to address the problems
of a frenetic lifestyle.
- Offers clear instructions for releasing, massaging,
and breathing stress away.
- Explores the mind/body/stress connection, showing that
once the mind is calm, the body can function at its best.
Starting from the basic principle of "If you want to know how to eliminate stress, ask someone who is without stress," Stuart Alve Olson introduces the simple, time-tested exercises of Taoist masters to teach even the most harried Westerner how to go beyond reducing stress to eliminating it all together. Olson offers easy-to-use techniques to help us let go of tension and mental strain through breathing, mental relaxation, and massage.
Readers will learn from fifth-century physician T'ao Hung-ching the Six Sounds therapy that can be practiced between phone calls at the office or during morning traffic. Whether rubbing a simple pressure point in the middle of a meeting or enjoying breathing methods like the Heng Ha breath all day long, readers will discover the gifts of tranquility, health, and balance offered by age-old Taoist practices. Tao of No Stress utilizes traditional verse, photos, and the down-to-earth guidance of the author to teach both the experienced Taoist practitioner and the complete novice how to live stress free in a stress full world.
