Quantum leap in quality of life

July 30th, 2008 Phil

I have been practicing Dahn Yoga for over 5 years and have had a quantum leap in improvement of the experience of my life. I have used the principles from the Dahn Yoga Basics book in my work with psychotherapy patients and have seen them improve dramatically in their ability to grow through the issues they face.

Now with the new book, Brain Wave Vibration, I have a new tool in my work, and also in my personal life.
I felt this was a clear and easily read explanation of the principles underlying the benefits of vibrational exercises. Ilchi Lee used examples from many cultures that illustrate the universality of the awareness of these principles.

In my own life I am happy to have a simple, easy technique that doesn’t require a change of clothes, sweating, or a class to practice. It can be used at any time that you need the resetting of the brain. I use it when I feel myself getting emotionally caught up in a situation, or when I am beginning a project or interaction that needs a clear mind. I feel much calmer, less reactive and my auragram readings are maintaining balance between my healing sessions.

In my work, this technique will be easy for my clients to use and add to the other Dahn exercises I have assigned them, without feeling overwhelmed.

This book is a must read for any Dahn practitioner! It will keep you from taking yourself too seriously. It is so simple, anyone can get the benefits.

I started to have hope

July 23rd, 2008 Phil

Throughout my college years, I never doubted that being a teacher was the perfect job for me. I was confident that I would be a great teacher when I went to work as a student teacher. When I finally graduated and went to the first school to work, I was full of pride, believing I was the perfect teacher. I thought that I had studied hard for the past four years, and I had all the necessary elements to be a good teacher.

But I was soon driven to despair when I met students in real life. I had so much to teach them, but the students were not paying attention to me. I was having a hard time getting up in the morning because of fatigue accumulated during the previous day. “I am having such a hard time. Why is this happening?” I asked myself. This thought later changed to: “I don’t think I am qualified to be a teacher. I should consider getting a different kind of job.”

During that time, one of the more experienced teachers recommended that I get training to teach Brain Education to children. When I was first introduced to Brain Wave Vibration, I thought, “What’s the point of just shaking the head?” In the beginning, I only focused on the head and neck during Brain Wave Vibration, but eventually the motion spread out through my entire body. Then the next day, I was able to wake up in the morning by myself without the alarm. Now I manage my mind and body through Brain Wave Vibration.

What I realized after the sixty hours of Brain Education training is that there was nothing at all wrong with the students. I was the problem. I was not a happy person, and I was looking around at the students and the world with that unhappy attitude.

I became much happier after the training, and I wanted to share that happiness with others. My students looked so loving when I met them again, and I could communicate well with my students for the rest of the semester. Then I finally started to have hope that I might one day be able to become a truly good teacher to my students.

One day, a student came to me and said, “I used to think that I couldn’t do anything before I met you. But now, I think I can do anything. Thank you so much, teacher!”

As I heard this, I cried out loud. I was so happy and so grateful.

Calmed Nerves Before Exam

July 23rd, 2008 Phil

I was preparing for my graduate school entrance exam. It required memorizing a few pages of conversation written in Chinese. I was nervous but, making my brain lighter with Brain Wave Vibration, I managed to stay calm and clear. Needless to say, I passed the exam.
