Americans spend over $100
billion annually attempting to look young and slim. This figure could be doubled when including
money spent in the rest of the western industrialized nations. All the face crèmes, pills and snake oils
haven’t resulted in anyone eliminating wrinkles and sagging skin. In fact, it is extremely unusual to see
anyone who appears five or ten years younger than their chronological age.
Weight loss diets,
programs, protocols, clinics, etc. haven’t made much impact either. Americans spend countless $billions trying
to lose weight, but still the US is the fattest society on earth and the trend
is in wrong direction. The highly
disciplined and dedicated persons who actually lose weight almost always see it
return when they discontinue their diet, program, protocol or weight loss
clinic.
Most Americans dream of
the days that people working in the laboratories in white coats will develop a
pill that will provide the miracle of youthful appearance and a slim body. We have been watching television ads since
infancy that promises us a pill to solve every problem. The only pills missing now are the pills for
rejuvenation and weight loss. Of course
this pill will never appear in our lifetime.
Since Americans are spending well over $100 billion annually, the
companies that are earning these huge profits would be selling us this
rejuvenation pill for even greater profits.
Of course we keep waiting because we are conditioned to believe that the
secret of rejuvenation and weight loss must be discovered in a lab within the
borders of the USA, by people in white coats; otherwise, it must be bogus.
Actually, the secret of
rejuvenating the body, including the face, has been around for centuries. The ancient Chinese discovered this, and the
art has been passed down from master to master in the Chongqing region of
south-western China. Grand Master Tian
Yong, presently in her mid-50’s, still passes for a woman of 25-30 years of
age. At 49, she was stopped for an ID
check at a Niagara Falls casino because admittance was restricted to people
over 19 years of age. Her art involves
no pills or medicines, and she had never even seen a multi-vitamin before
visiting Canada at 47 years of age.
Tian Yong stresses that extending one’s quality of life is the true goal
of her art. Looking years younger than
one’s chronological age is just a by-product.
To understand this ancient
Chinese art, it helps to understand the basic concept of Traditional Chinese
Medicine, although it’s not necessary to actually understand it…just do
it. When the Chinese discover something
that works, and there are no adverse side effects, they just do it. We in the western industrialized world, on
the other hand, tend to study something for years and years, and if we don’t
discover why it works, we’ll never hear of it again.
The people of Chongqing
eat more calories, more saturated fat and more carbohydrates daily than Americans,
yet are amongst the slimmest people in the world. Tian Yong says that Chongqing people had
seen obese people in Hollywood movies but assumed they were made by
computer. They had never seen an obese
person in real life and didn’t believe there were actually people that looked
like that. Their slimness is not
genetic, because when they immigrate to North America and adopt the North
American lifestyle, they become just as fat as everyone else. This is also true of those who are born in
North America.
Tian Yong was convinced to
collaborate with Brian Cox (see Brian’s bio www.bcoxbooks.com), the result of which is a book entitled “Reverse the
Aging Process and Extend Lifespan”. You
can see photos of Tian Yong on this blog ranging in age from 46 to 53. You may not be able to look thirty years
younger than your chronological age if you adapt this art late in life, but you
can certainly put the brakes on the aging process, look younger, be slimmer and
improve your quality of life.
Amazing :)... Bad news for you - we all ever die... :))
