    How to use this companion

    1. 1The Líng Shū is a hands-on text. Read each block with a channel reference open beside you — the WHO 2008 standard for locations, and the Medi-Chi point pages for functions.
    2. 2Where a chapter describes a technique, sit with the needle handling described before you read the commentary.
    3. 3Answer the self-test questions out loud as if explaining to a student. Anything you cannot say plainly you have not learned yet.
    4. 4Each unit names its textbook chapters. The textbook gives the modern synthesis; the Líng Shū shows you the observations it was built from.
