Resumen del Editor

A guide to the foundational practice of “smiling to the organs” to promote deep relaxation and internal health

• Presents exercises that dissolve the physical and mental tensions that can cause energy blockages and unhealthy chi flow
• Shows how to recognize illness at its inception on the organ level and how to balance the emotions to heal it

The Inner Smile is a practice that focuses gratitude and joy on the internal organs to resolve the physical and mental tensions that can lead to illness. In Taoism negative emotions - anger, sadness, depression, fear, and worry - are seen as low-grade energy that causes chronic disease and steals our major life force by creating energy blockages. Master Mantak Chia shows that the internal awareness produced by the simple yet powerful Inner Smile meditation practice flushes the organs of poisonous negative energy that may be blocking chi energy flow in order to nourish the entire body.

Just as a genuine outer smile transmits positive energy and has the power to warm and heal, an inner smile produces a high grade of energy that promotes powerful internal healing, deep relaxation, happiness, and longevity. Smiling to the organs and thanking them for the work they do helps to reawaken the intelligence of the body, which, once activated, can dissipate emotional imbalances and inner disharmony before serious illness manifests.

to listen to, again and again

there's so much to unpack here, it's a manual to the body/mind that we can all learn from but there's also something sweet and loving about this Taoist technique that anyone can practice, this book can rearrange your relationship to your body and improve your connection, that said, all his books are great, advanced, accurate, presented nicely, great information, immensely insightful

Good information but too short and brief

Overall the information is good and interesting to listen to. The problem I had was the woman narrating is too mater of fact and it didn’t resonate with the content. A lot of one liners with not much depth. Seems to want to refer you to other books and their center instead of going deeper.
