Xiu yang works with the idea that we can steadily nurture our capacity to being fully human and fully awake. Like a field that is patiently cultivated to optimally grow the nourishing and healthy crops, we can undertake practices aimed at smoothing out the roughness and irregularities in our bodies, minds, and spirits in order to produce a deep, lasting spiritual happiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eXiu Yang\u003c\/em\u003e promotes the idea that inner balance leads to outer radiance: in order to be in harmony with the world, we must first be in harmony with ourselves. By tending to the field of our own bodies, hearts, minds, and relationships, we can start making positive changes within our lives and in the lives of others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this nurturing lifestyle guide, Mimi Kuo-Deemer champions the contemporary value of adopting this ancient approach.
