Although we are new in the field (initiated in February 2011), the precursor of Yang-Sheng<\/em>, the Qi Dao e-journal<\/em>, was founded in 2006, and has brought about 3,000+ subscribers to the Yang-Sheng network.\u00a0 By March 2012 (one year later) Yang-Sheng website had 16,000+ unique visitors per month (total visitors over 130,000; up to 1250 unique visitors per day).\u00a0 Our Facebook page has 3,400+ fans and 15,000+ active viewers per month.\u00a0 In addition, about 10,000 unique visitors to read each issue of our flip-book version, and about 3,000 subscribers downloaded the PDF version of Yang-Sheng magazine each month to share with their friends and students (many of our readers are professional instructors of Qigong, Taiji, Yoga, Reiki and mindfulness meditation).\u00a0 Approximately 70% of our visitors are from the USA, with the remainder primarily from Canada, Europe, East Asia, and Australia.
