This book contains the medical experience and life philosophy of a very special representative of the old Chinese civilization. Alex Wu (Wu Xiao Kao) was educated in China in the Himalaya region, now he lives and works in the Netherlands. He developed a universal medical system that he called Himalaya medicine . Himalaya chi gong prevents all illnesses . Himalaya herbs cure most of the short time and long time diseases of body and mind. This book is the transcription of his lectures.

The lectures explain the way doctor Alex Wu cures his patients, he gives examples from his daily experience. Very important is the notion that the human being is a composition of natural spiritual energy and a physical body. These, two the material and the spiritual, go together in all forms of life and also in material objects.Alex Wu uses his capacity to guide the inside and outside energy to make a diagnosis, to teach chi gong, to use acupuncture and to make herbal mixtures . He explains the use of herbs from plants to strengthen the functioning of body and mind. He teaches chi gong to heal the patients, prevent the diseases and to start a development process in a physical and spiritual way . He gives suggestions for food and lifestyle.
Alex Wu explains the philosophy behind his profession as a doctor. Morality is first important, also for the doctor, then we can get a good health. And when we all feel happy, kind, love each other , we can have a peaceful society.

Also we must take care of nature, for nature is our mother: we are part of nature, it surrounds us, influences us. We all know the influence of the weather. Without nature we die. In a polluted nature humans and animals cannot live, cannot be happy and healthy.

Great is Alex Wu in his description of the positive and negative spiritual energy. An example of negative spirits is the greediness for money or for power. Negative spirits make us sick, but positive spirits , like in the Chinese medical herbs can heal us, In sport competition the positive influence of the coach or the team results in winning games. Friends and family can have positive spirits, but because everything has two sides, they can also have negative influence. We must recognize this. Alex Wu explains the growth stages when we practice chi gong. The first stage is the cleaning of negative spirits, the last stage is to be unified with the energy of nature. Performing the stages is like climbing the Himalaya mountains, people need a lot of courage. Most people are absorbed in their daily worries or career.

Special attention deserves Alex Wu ‘s extensive description of the influence of the four seasons and the cosmic moving forces . He describes the way the four seasons influence our health and wellbeing and gives a lot of suggestions . Mostly we are not aware, but we are always moving, the atoms in our body move, our blood runs , cells grow and die, the planets turn around each other in the cosmos, people and animals move from young to old, everything in nature comes up and later goes down. Even the atoms in materials are moving. He calls all that movement feng shui.

Alex Wu sees the advantages of the cooperation of Western and Eastern medicine, but on an equal basis. Western medicine has its machines, but Eastern medicine has the knowledge about energy and herbs. He describes the powerful techniques of acupressure and long distance diagnosis. «
