SFQ can start to improve all aspects of health; circulation, flexibility, strengthening immunity, emotional stability, mental clarity, stress reduction, pain relief all while providing an increased sense of happiness and vitality. Master Lin believes that everyone is born a healer and can help themselves heal and help others heal as well. His vision is “A healer in every home and a world without pain and suffering.” Chunyi is the author of a #1 Amazon bestseller, Born A Healer. He is also coauthor with Dr. Nisha Manek of the Mayo Clinic of a chapter on Qigong in a medical school textbook, The Textbook of Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Second Edition.
