Sexual Teachings of the White Tigress (Inner Traditions Bear and Company)

Under the guidance of Madam Lin, the matriarch of a distinguished White Tigress lineage still in existence in Taiwan, Hsi Lai was given the privilege to study these practices and record them from a modern perspective so they will be forever preserved. The vast majority of Taoist texts on alchemy, meditation and sexuality are directed at male practitioners. THE SEXUAL TEACHINGS OF THE WHITE TIGRESS presents traditions that focus on women, traditions that stem from along line of courtesans and female Taoists. Translations of the ancient teachings from a rare White Tigress manual dating back 3,000 years explain the sexual and spiritual refinement of ching (sexual energy), chi (vital energy) and shen (consciousness) - the three treasure of Taoism - the secret to unlocking eternal youthfulness and immortality.
