This book is an extraordinary and valuable resource of information about natural healing fundamentals and maintaining good health and wellbeing. Grandmaster Hong Liu has treated me for many years using the natural healing methods described in this book. His treatment helped me stay in office until I retired at age eighty-eight. I urgently recommend this book to all people of all ages. Although the target is dementia and aging, the information applies to all aspects of remaining healthy. This book is detailed, shares actual health cases, is easy to understand, and the exercise illustrations are precise. People seeking beneficial health results need to read this book. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of the contents of this book for people who want to stay healthy - it's like revealing endured wisdoms and secrets more than five thousand years old. - U.S. Senator Daniel K. Akaka (RET) As the average human life span has steadily increased since the last century, dementia has become a major challenge to the wellbeing of the aging population. How to prevent, treat and improve dementia is a task our society faces. To solve this task, a combined effort is needed from different philosophies and medical fields - a place where the East meets the West. Stephen Rath has studied with Grandmaster for many years, and verified numerous successes of Grandmaster's Qigong exercises in helping people with dementia. This book provides clear and concise information about Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Western Medicine in order to help readers understand Qigong's benefit for this illness. The format of the exercises are easy to understand and practice. I hope this book will bring new light in fighting dementia and improving the quality of life for our elders. - Dr. Shi Cheng, MM (China), Dipl. Ac., Vice President and Co-Founder of Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine (CSTCM), Denver, CO
