Bean Curd Boxing: Tai Chi and the Noble Art of Leaving Things Alone
Combining the simplicity of Tai Chi, the soft wisdom of the ancient sages and a tender light-hearted approach to learning, the Manual of Bean Curd Boxing shows you: 
* How to absorb the basics of these arts into your daily activities with no sweat and no stress
* How to remain tranquil and calm under the stress of daily encounters 
* How to perfect the ancient art of 'doing without doing' in order to softly Get Things Done 
* How to become a slow ninja amongst a planet of speed freaks 
In a world of Information Overload, the Manual of Bean Curd Boxing offers an alternative source of wisdom: practical and original exercises for re-learning good posture, good breathing habits and building powerful new energy boosting habits.

Last year, The Manual of Bean Curd Boxing - already an ebook and paperback -  became an audio book, read by the teapotmonk himself.  Although available on Audible and all other audiobook platforms (see list below), the teapotmonk assembled the audio book, the ebook, the original drawings and sketches as well as a PDF history of Bean Curd Boxing together - and created the Bean Curd Bundle.

I began by creating a slideshow known as a SNAPGUIDE  on STANDING LIKE A FLAMINGO - SEE IT HERE:
​I also did one promo video from 2011, and a couple of videos released during the same period to help explain some of the ideas from the book.
