Join the movement that celebrates single living with Peter McGraw's groundbreaking book, Solo.Amid the complexities of modern relationships, loneliness epidemics, and online dating burnout, there's a refreshing alternative: going Solo. "Solos," as coined by behavioral economist Peter McGraw, are people who choose to lead their lives authentically, purposefully, and passionately outside the confines of traditional relationship labels. In a world built for two, Solos break the rules and hold space for every type of individual--single and not. Meet the thriving "Just Mays," who welcome romance if it comes their way, the determined "No Ways," who prefer life unpartnered, and the bold "New Ways," who redefine and redesign what relationships even mean. Which one are you?In contrast with the "Someday" singles who hang personal fulfilment on the success of a "serious" long-term relationship, McGraw reveals the secrets of happiness that Solos have already unlocked, offering readers a roadmap to reinventing sex, dating, romance, and beyond. Backed by scientific insights and McGraw's experience as a lifelong bachelor, Solo offers a blueprint for cultivating fulfilling relationships and creating a rich remarkable life. Solo is your invitation to pursue a life uniquely your own.

Chris Shelton offers this book as a guide for understanding and incorporating the theories and practices of specific exercises focused on balancing your body's energy. Although the practices in this book originated in ancient China, these exercises are meant to benefit all people. The system as a whole is known as "Qigong." "Qi" refers to the life force energy that emanates within all things, material and non-material, and "gong" means work, or skill. Practicing the meditations and exercises described in this book will certainly give your Qi a boost, and you will finish feeling revitalized and refreshed, rather than worked-out and exhausted. Each day of practice will bring greater and greater benefits, gradually refining your health and vitality-your fundamental nature-as one would refine ore into gold. As the founder of Morning Crane Healing Arts Center in San Jose and Los Angeles, California, Chris believes in self-empowerment, teaching that no matter your life circumstances, you can take control of your health in order to enjoy life, free from pain.
