Foreword I would like to take this opportunity to thank every one of the honorable readers throughout the world who has purchased my books since 1978. I

greatly appreciate the continuous support , which has been reinforced by thousands of letters of appreciation and inquiry . In regard to these letters , I would also like to take this chance to apologize to those whose letters I have not had a chance to answer. For these people , and others who wish to know more , I have written another book that will answer the many questions and satisfy the many appetites for knowledge . To let the reader know about the supplementations of a great many more healing techniques and new con­ cepts and corrections to the old text , I have changed the title from The Book of Internal Exercises to The Complete System of Self-Healing. Instead of showing only one room, the new book opens the door to the entire house . I have devoted forty years of intensive research , experience , and meticulous selection to make sure that the techniques within this book are: * Absolutely true Taoist teachings (such as the principle of mind and body unification) . * Absolutely scientific. *Proven to possess great healing value . * Absolutely natural (equipment, which causes bodily imbalances , is not needed) . * Absolutely safe (no side-effects) and free from time or space limitations .
