Product Info Reviews

Description:

A Zen priest as well as a t'ai chi instructor, Linda Myoki Lehrhaupt takes us into the soul of t'ai chi in T'ai Chi as a Path of Wisdom. Not exactly an instruction manual (there are only a few of the basic exercises and no photographs), this unique book reads more like a topnotch meditation manual, describing practices but also pitfalls, warning of frustrations and praising the outcomes of perseverance. In personal anecdotes that range from the humorous to the painful, Lehrhaupt touches on aspects of t'ai chi, such as balance, stillness, and steadfastness, that will be familiar to anyone who has learned a physical skill. The success stories of her students and of herself are an inspiration to take up this soft art and experience the wisdom that comes from cooperating with the cosmos. --Brian Bruya
