Qigong for Christians Sylvia

We all need healing in our lives today: healing from health issues; healing from broken hearts; healing from hopelessness in a chaotic world.
Sylvia was one such person who desired healing in her life, dealing with personal challenges stemming from being raised in a broken home. Her parents divorced when Sylvia was six years old, and at age eighteen, her broken heart still had not mended. Having attended Christian churches throughout her childhood, Sylvia still felt in need of God's healing touch to handle the trials she was facing.
Her prayers were answered in 2008, when she was introduced to Qigong meditation, a Chinese meditation that utilizes everything in a person (heart, mind, body, and spirit) to improve one's overall health and well-being. Sylvia soon became a dedicated student of Master Chunyi Lin, founder of Spring Forest Qigong, and implemented her Christian faith into her practice of Qigong meditation.
The result is her new guide, Qigong for Christians: A Christ-Centered Healing Meditation, which brings twelve steps of meditative healing associated with Qigong together with the scriptural insight of the Bible.
Sylvia is a strong believer in the power of connecting with God for direction in life, feeling God leading her as a child toward a career in nursing. She has worked in the nursing field since 1994, and has been a nurse practitioner for the past thirteen years. Her background in healthcare influences her appreciation for the comfort of Qigong, and the results she knows firsthand that it can bring.
Each page guides readers easily through different meditation steps, visualizations, and mental exercises with Qigong, enhanced by Sylvia's direction of praising God and being aware of Jesus' sacrifices on the cross to restore our connection to God. Scripture references accompany each step to acquaint readers with the author's promptings of Biblical faith while doing Qigong meditation.
As she witnessed the benefits of Qigong for Christians to herself physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, Sylvia also wishes for readers to have their own personal experiences and improvements as they connect with God through this Jesus-centered healing meditation.
