Crack Fizzle Pop! Out came a soul glistening with blissful internal peace… Ready to Rock! My experience with the 21day Brain Wave Vibration training at my Dahn Yoga Center in Pasadena, CA was not an easy path as unforeseen events were tossed into my life. It threw me off course and left me dangling with a huge question, “WHY? What the Hell?!” During the first training event in October, I slashed my left toe with fragmented glass. It left me immobile for 7days. Not a fan of blood, wounds, etc., I felt paralyzed not just physically but way into the beyond from the pain of this wound. I couldn’t endure too much and just wanted to close off to take a breather…alone. So, I talked to the instructors at my center and they were understanding. “There is another opportunity next month again,” they said.

Then November came around and my wound was healed. I was ready catch up and start my training again from the 10th. On Nov 6th, I lost my brother (age 24) in a car accident. Then on Nov 8th my grandmother followed him and passed over. They were both living at my parents home, my grandmother in her last days suffering from cancer and my brother seeking acceptance and peace.

“What the HELL?!” I was angry, lost, confused, and traumatized. “THIS CAN”T BE REAL, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?!” It was painful…but I was grateful for friends who comforted me with supportive words and gestures.

I sought out help to get physical and emotional comfort by going to my favorite kinesiologist and a therapist. That helped in the beginning…but I still just wanted to forget about it all. I would go out to drink with friends until the brink of dawn….clubbing and “just having a good time.” That helped but was temporary. I had several messages from my Dahn Instructors by this time. Finally, after seeking support and trying to fulfill my needs from external sources, I realized that I needed help getting back on track by trying to heal from within. I showed up last week out of the blue for the Brain Wave Vibration training. The first day it felt awkward, and at the end of the session I felt sleepy, very sleepy. Then in the days to follow, my body started to connect, ignite, and remember the power from within.

The Head Instructor featured a video clip from Ilchi Lee that talked about death and that it’s just part of the process of transitioning to become a enlightened spiritual being. It was comforting to see it and it also confirmed to me that my brother was at peace and is Free. My heart resonated not only with this special message but also with the music from the Brain Wave Vibration training. So powerful and healing…music, message…my body, mind, and spirit freely captured in the RYTHYM. A few days later, during the training I was given a message, “PEACEFUL” and shown a picture of a long shiny Sword cutting open the shell of my dark self and bringing out a bright light. The training sessions felt shorter and shorter as each time passed…and easier to just step into the flow.

The final day, I felt as if I was with the flow of the music and at ONE. It felt blissful, peaceful, and serene. Somewhere and sometime between the last training days my anger and confusion dissolved. I have confirmation from within…MY body, mind, and soul…that everything is fine and at peace. I am again ready to ROCK! and to continue on my path. Gaining insight, strength, and gratitude from the recent events, I feel resilient enough to proceed to serve my humanity.

Thank you to my instructors and to Dahn Yoga for the opportunity to discover and share my extraordinary experiences from Brain Wave Vibration training. Whether that may be the community service of protecting and leading the way to a better quality of life or sharing and creating a much needed awareness of healing our planet…. it shall be done!! and So it is…
