Qigong Meets Quantum Physics

This book succeeds in presenting both an easily accessible outline of quantum physics and also an appreciation of mysticism beyond vagueness and obscurity. From here it describes the physical and mental movements of qigong as a way of integrating body and mind, head and heart, detailing specific exercises and outlining their rationale and effects.

I have known Rick for over 30 years as a friend and professional colleague. He has lived his life and guided his clients according to a simple, yet powerful narrative – align your spiritual, mental, physical and emotional energy with your life’s purpose. If you wake up every day, express gratitude and help others, your life will be meaningful. The chapters in this book give the reader guidance into this philosophy for a fulfilled life. Peter M. Fasolo, Ph.D. Chief HR Officer Johnson & Johnson The word Renaissance means rebirth. In my mind, when I think of this word, I have an image of a peony or a tulip opening over a week – each day the bloom is reborn different and wondrous. I am always curious about what it became overnight. That is what it is like to read Rick Bellingham’s Perspectives and Possibilities. Each musing is a chance to explore a new organizing framework and to be curious - curious about how we can lead more fulfilling and purposeful lives. It is a book to be picked up and put down with a deep sense of trust that the inspiration that is needed for renaissance will be found in these pages. Pat Zigarmi, Ph.D.. Co-Founder, The Ken Blanchard Companies Author, Situational Leadership II This book both inspires and challenges you to consider how you might learn, grow, and love more! In his own self-effacing way, Rick always challenges me to think more deeply about how I conduct my life while inspiring and encouraging me! How fortunate we all are to be inspired by Rick’s words... and to know that life’s possibilities are ever increasing if we are only awake to them.

Critically exploring the presuppositions of contemporary social theory, this collection argues for a trans-civilizational dialogue and a deepening of the universe of intellectual discourse in order to transform sociology into a truly planetary conversation on the human condition. Focusing on perspectives from Asia, notably East Asia and India, it interrogates presuppositions in contemporary critical social theory about man, culture and society, and considers central themes such as knowledge and power, knowledge and liberation. The diverse contributions tackle key questions such the globalization of social theory, identity and society in east asia, as well as issues such as biopolitics, social welfare and eurocentrism. They also examine dialogues along multiple trajectories between social theorists from the Euro-American world and from the Asian universe, such as between Kant and Gandhi, Habermas and Sri Aurobindo, the Bildung tradition in Europe and the Confucian traditions. Arguing for a global comparative engagement and cross-cultural dialogue, this is a key read for all those interested in the future of social theory in the wake of globalization and the rise of the global south.

The Magic of Quantum Living is a revolutionizing new theory, bringing together quantum physics, spirituality, and religion in order to explain God and the interconnectedness of the entire universe. This new quantum theory is an inspirational message explaining the entanglement and interrelation of all things and people as part of one big collective consciousness: the oneness principle. This theory highlights the way our thoughts, words, and actions, which are based on our beliefs, create our reality within a greater collective reality. Practical examples and explanations assist the reader in examining their own beliefs and behaviours, with the aim to foster and cultivate a greater respect and love for all of life, humanity, and our planet.

We create our own lives using our thoughts, our feelings and our beliefs. Thoughts and feelings create and emit energy that influence both ourselves and our environment. Quantum physics has enabled us to measure these waves from the brain and heart and we all have our own unique frequency, because it depends on our DNA. This explains how a mother and her baby can sense each other and how identical twins can sense each other across the planet. Your health is also influenced by your thoughts, feelings and beliefs because they cause the brain to release chemicals to the body based on how you are perceiving the world. Quantum physics shows us that fundamentally, everything is energy – i.e. everything is connected in the same way that waves in the ocean influence and change each other when they meet. This is why the feeling of connectedness is so important for all of us. By being conscious of how we act, feel and think, we can better steer our lives in a desired direction. By clearing out old beliefs that no longer serve us and by creating balance between the brain and the heart – and between the left and right brain hemispheres – we can attain the life we desire. Henning provides four concrete exercises that you can practice, to you create the things you want in your life.
