In addition to self-defense and fighting techniques, the Chinese Kung-Fu Wu-Su Association teaches its students how to achieve a better lifestyle which can lead to both a longer and healthier life. We incorporate Buddhist and Daoist techniques into our teachings.

Some important principles include:

• "The Three Eights" (8 hours sleep, 8 hours work, 8 hours play per day)
• Proper diet and use of supplements (vegetables, protein, vitamins, minerals, herbs, health supplements)
• Breathing exercises - tūiná breathing (), sōng jìnggōng ()
• Concentration exercises - rùdìng () concentration
• Meditation exercises - Daoist: lying, side-lying, standing; Buddhist: natural sitting, single winding, double winding & others
• Internal organ exercises - Eight Silk Weaving (/bādùanjĭn), Twelve Silk Weaving, 36 Superior Daoist Techniques
• Qigong exercises - jìnggōng, nèigōng, wàigōng
• Injury & sickness care - dăoyĭnbìjí (), wàiqìzhìlíao (), accupressure, massage, herbs & Chinese medical techinques

Those who practice the above techniques with discipline and regularity build up strong qi, which can be used to improve one's own life and the lives of others.

In China, tales of great masters using qi and herbs to assist healing of injuries and illness is well documented. Even today, the first "doctor" many Chinese go to when ill or injured is such a practitioner. Testimonials from recipients of qi healing mention feelings of energy surging through the body and/or injured area, seeing colors corresponding to different "flavors" of energy, and faster than normal healing of injuries. Grandmaster Lee performs these services and trains all of his degree holders and instructors in the application these techniques.
