Damo Mitchell describes (with detailed instructions and photographs) four short Dragon Tao-Jin assemblies-awakening, swimming, hovering and drunk drag wider debates on Tao-Jin.
The central theme of the book is the concept of the spine and its awakening, as well as stagnation and the flow of qi. There are also styles of breathing and opening joints. The author deals with important differences between Qi-Kung and Tao-Jin, theory, history and development of Tao-Jin exercises, as well as the relationship between Chinese medicine theory and Tao-Jin exercises.
