Hey all, I was thinking about working on my abilities for energy work and I found a couple books to get me started on that track. Let me know if these are worth it or if you have better recommendations.
Initiation to Hermetics- Franz Bardon
Energy Essentials for Witches and Spellcasters- Mya Om
The Un-Spell Book: Energy Essentials for Mastering Magick- Mya Om
Also, if this belongs somewhere else, feel free to move it :]

Never heard of that second author, but Bardon is always a solid pick.
If you're looking for books on energy work, I'd highly recommend the works of Robert Bruce and Damo Mitchell.

Wow, I happen to be reading a book by Bruce "Astral Dynamics" which I like so far. Also, in one of Mitchell's books it talks about Neidan.
Neidan, or internal alchemy[1] (simplified Chinese: 內丹术; traditional Chinese: 內丹術; pinyin: nèidān shù), is an array of esoteric doctrines and physical, mental, and spiritual practices that Taoist initiates use to prolong life and create an immortal spiritual body that would survive after death.[2] Also known as Jindan ("golden elixir"), inner alchemy combines theories derived from external alchemy (waidan), correlative cosmology (including the Five Phases), the emblems of the Yijing, and medical theory, with techniques of Daoist meditation, daoyin gymnastics, and sexual hygiene.[3]
That sounds badass and oddly enough like a Merkabah to me...

I still like michael tse books on qigong, but it seems to be somewhat hard to find in english, but I would still go hunting for qigong books.
