Health and Longevity: Detox Asian
Style
In the Far East, where people like
to work hard, play hard and enjoy every aspect of life,
health and longevity have always been cultivated as the
two most precious treasures of life, and they form the
cornerstones upon which the enjoyment and accomplishment
of everything else worth doing depends.
Regardless of how busy they became in the relentless pursuit of fame and fortune,
food and sex, prosperity and pleasure, people in traditional Asian societies
always took the time to relax their bodies and rest their minds, to replenish
their energies and rebalance their systems, and designed their diets and other
basic habits in ways that protected their health and prolonged their lives,
rather than hastened their degeneration and demise. By following these basic
principles, traditional Eastern cultures developed a knack for healthy living
that enhances rather than diminishes the enjoyment of life's pleasures, and
assists rather than interferes with the demands of hard work. The Japanese,
for example, who work harder by day and play harder by night than anyone else
on earth, and who live with the most intense forms of modern industrial pollution,
continue to enjoy the longest average lifespan in the world, simply by continuing
to follow traditional ways in their personal habits of life. What they and
other East Asian cultures have learned is the ancient Chinese art of longevity
by means of toxic damage control, a system known as the 'way of nurturing life'
(yang-sheng dao). In other words, they practised the 'Tao of Detox'.
The 'way of nurturing life' is a comprehensive system of self-health care that
is as relevant to the human condition today as it was when first developed
over 3,000 years ago in ancient China, and the life-prolonging benefits for
those who practise this way of life are greater today than ever before.
The essential principle
is to combat the
debilitating, deathly effects of
environmental poisons and self-pollution
with the rejuvenating, antidote of personal
hygiene and self-purification.
The purpose of regular regimens of
self-cleansing is simply to stay a few steps
ahead of the inexorable process of
pollution and decay.
'Aging' is not a matter of time alone;
it is the rate at which we permit our
bodies to decay over a period of time.
Having practised these methods
myself for nearly 30 years, I agree with their principles
more than ever, and I wholeheartedly endorse this system
as the best way to protect your health, preserve your
vitality and prolong your life.
This book presents the most practical and effective methods used for thousands
of years in traditional East Asian cultures to cultivate health and longevity
through personal hygiene and proper daily care of the human body The therapeutic
powers of these ancient Eastern healing arts are further amplified by fusing
them with modern technology and new health products, and their basic principles
are more clearly illuminated by viewing them in the light of modern medical
science. By selectively blending the best of East and West in self-health
care, this book presents a comprehensive system for protecting health and
prolonging life by means of internal cleansing, and introduces a variety
of practical programmes that anyone can learn to practise within the context
of one's own daily life.
However, a book can only show you the way; the will to follow it can only
come from you. Hopefully, this book will inspire that wish in you.
