About the Authors
Ramel Rones is a gold medalist, award-winning martial artist in both the U.S. and China. With 16 years of experience leading Tai Chi, Qigong and Meditation classes, he focuses on helping individuals with conditions like cancer, arthritis, and fibromyalgia. Rami is a consultant on mind/body therapies at Harvard and Tufts Medical Schools, and is the co-author of numerous publications.
In 2004, National Geographic filmed a study done on the effects of Meditation and Tai Chi. Ramel Rones was asked to meditate using various methods, while his brain was scanned and vital signs were recorded.
The data extracted demonstrated Rami's ability to rapidly modulate his breathing rate and physiological arousal level as he entered a meditative state. This found that advanced meditators like Rami are able to activate a broad network of cortical and subcortical areas associated with emotional and cognitive regulation, which has many health benefits.
David Silver has had a lifelong interest in meditation, and began training Gojū Ryū Karate at age 11. He studied Taijiquan, Qigong, and Yoga in his 20's, and became certified by world-renown Chinese martial arts master, Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming, as a YMAA Qigong Instructor.
He volunteers for the nonprofit YMAA Retreat Center.

He is the co-writer of the best-selling Sunrise Tai Chi book and DVD, Tai Chi Energy Patterns DVD, and Sunset Tai Chi book and DVD. He has produced many titles, including those by Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming. David lives and teaches on Cape Cod, MA.
