Yang Sheng - The Art of Chinese Self-Healing - Hayo'u

I've been slowly working through the self-massage techniques, and the instructions for the abdomen are really clear and feel surprisingly effective. The book makes complex Chinese medicine principles feel accessible without dumbing them down.

After struggling with constant low energy, the gua sha routine in this book finally gave me a simple morning ritual that actually works. The illustrations make it so easy to follow, even for a complete beginner like me.

The breathing exercises in this book are surprisingly simple to incorporate into a morning routine. Within a week I noticed less tension in my shoulders.
