Dahn Yoga Hawaii Member’s blog

As I rode on the rhythm of my body, all those negative feelings that were giving me a hard time disappeared.

After I experienced this, whenever I felt unpleasant I started shaking the negativity off immediately by doing Brain Wave Vibration. I decided to delete my negative feelings right away. In the beginning, it was not easy to do. But after I practiced several times, I could easily control my feelings by shaking my neck and body, even if just a little bit.

Recently, I began to actively imagine what I wanted my-self to be during Brain Wave Vibration. I visualize all the negativity and hostility being eliminated, which helps my body become even more refreshed and energized. I still may feel upset at an accident scene, but I immediately practice Brain Wave Vibration on the way back in the patrol car. My method is to rub my hands together and stroke my head with my hands, and then delete those unpleasant feelings by shaking my head. When my fellow cops have a hard time thinking of difficult memories, I shout at them and laugh, “Delete it!”

Information used to be held by an elite few, the scholars and rulers of a time gone by. But now there is an excess of information available for everyone. Every piece of information is like a calorie. The brain, which has a natural love for acquiring information, slurps up the information wherever it can be found. Soon the brain is overwhelmed by the vast amount of information entering it. Information in its own right is not bad, no more than food is bad. But too much is too much, especially when the quality is not good.

Like fast food, you can get a lot of information cheap these days. Your mind, like your body, gets heavy and clogged up quickly if you don’t make good choices about what you feed it. Brain Wave Vibration is meant to help you stop processing information, almost like temporary information fast, so that you can begin to take control of your information consumption.

Benefits: Helps intestinal function and releases tension from the abdomen. Allows more circulation to the lower abdomen.
1. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and your knees bent slightly.

 Position your hands in the shape of a triangle with your thumbs on your belly button.
2. Push your abdomen out, making your belly round.
3. Pull in your abdomen deeply, keeping your shoulders relaxed. Breathe naturally.

   Continue to push out and  pull in. Repeat 50 times.

from the book “Power brain Kids” by Ilchi Lee

Benefit: The crane posture which you can practice at a Dahn Yoga center, founded by Ilchi Lee, clears head and balances right and left hemispheres of the brain, enhancing concentration. Improves nervous system function.

Posture

1. Stand up straight with your feet together. Place your palms together in front of you, as if in a prayer position.
2. Balance your weight on your right foot as you bend your left knee, and raise your left foot next to your right knee.
3. Let your toes point to the floor.
4. Close your eyes.
5. Hold the position while balancing. With practice, you can increase the length of time you are able to balance in this posture.
6. Change to your left foot.

Sole Patting

Dahn Yoga’s sole patting: Benefit—Significantly bolsters brain function. The feet are like a “second heart.” They are vital in orchestrating proper blood circulation. When the soles of the feet are stimulated, you will
begin to notice a heightened sense of clarity, focus, and concentration.

Postures:

1. Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you.
2. Bend one leg and bring the ankle over the knee of the other leg.
3. Make a fist with your thumb tucked inside your hand.
4. With the pinky side of your fist, pound the sole of your foot strongly 30 times.
5. Alternately, you could use a wooden stick to press the soles of the feet.
6. Pay attention to your Ki 1 (Yong-chun) acupressure points.
7. Repeat with the other foot.

I used to think I was a lazy person. When my colleagues asked me for something, I used my being lazy as an excuse. I used to say “I have a natural disposition to be lazy.” I didn’t know that I enjoyed it, but now I think from some point of view, I enjoyed it. I saw Ilchi Lee saying on laziness. He says laziness is an illusion.

There is a small rock hill near my home. It is not easy to everybody to climb all the way up to the hill, even though it is a small rock hill. You have to pass and go up high rocks here and there. When I pass that part, I always use my full concentration and strength. Being not that tall, I should stretch my extremities and grab the rocks. I am all too busy to be safe and get myself on the top. The idea of being lazy cannot find any place to be in my brain at all.

Sometimes I climb the hill with my friends. Being a man, sometimes I help my friends to climb the hill. At those times, I get really busy and dilligent to help them.

Yeah, I agree that laziness is just an illusion. I will choose diligence and stick to it.

A few of us have talked about Oprah’s new online class with author/spiritual teacher Eckhart Tolle, in which they discuss Eckhart Tolle’s book, “A New Earth.”  It’s another way to talk about what we study as Dahn Healers.  Enjoy!
