Books from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
Acupuncture, Chinese medicinal therapy, Tuina (manual healing massage) and the movement therapies Tai Chi and Qi Gong are the most important pillars of TCM. Chinese medicine assumes that Qi, the life energy, moves in the meridians, the body's channels, like a river that meanders through the landscape.
If the Qi is disturbed, i.e. the flow is inhibited, complaints and illnesses arise. The task of TCM is to restore the energetic harmony or to prevent functional or even chronic illnesses from developing in the human body.
Living in the natural biorhythm
In his book "The Organ Clock", TCM expert Li Wu shows us how to (again) lead a life in accordance with our natural biorhythm and thus achieve personal well-being. In addition to an introduction to traditional Chinese medicine, he names the main activity times of our twelve most important organs and the associated meridians. The interplay of activity and rest phases, of yin and yang, must be given more attention in order to counteract stress, nervousness and exhaustion. The appropriate natural remedies and methods, such as medicinal herbs, massages and acupressure, can help with this.
In "TCM for Every Day" we learn that it is not so difficult to incorporate this diverse healing method into our everyday lives in one way or another. Li Wu has come up with practical, daily healing and relaxation programs that include acupressure, movement and meditation exercises, healing massages and a balanced diet based on the five elements of wood, fire, metal, water and earth, as well as effective medicinal teas.
East-West medicinal teas for body, mind and soul
With the guide "Healing teas for body, mind and soul", Prof. Li Wu, together with the German pharmacist and medicinal plant expert Jürgen Klitzner, is breaking new ground: to unite the two great traditions of healing - namely the 5000-year-old Chinese medicine and the almost 2000-year-old tradition of European herbal and tea use - after decades of joint research. The two healers show that the medicinal herbs of both cultures complement each other, and can even reinforce each other, thus forming a unity of healing for the most diverse symptoms. There is nothing to stop you from making your own tea recipes, as the book lists their exact composition and reliable sources.
