I was such a worries-man. No matter what I did, I kept thinking about worries, problems, and dangers before anything else. For example, instead of choosing or enjoying the good side of something first, I looked at the bad side first instead and then acted from that perspective. Once I did that, I would start something good. But the excitement or joy was less than when I acted from a negative perspective. For instance, whenever I opened my email, I looked in the spam box first and then erased them. And then would read normal email with a comfortable mind ^_^. For long time, I didnot recognize how much my worries bothered me. There are always obstacles no matter what I do. And most of them can be overcome if I have a willingness to and a belief in myself. Now I’m starting to realize that as I repeat Brain Wave Vibration training. Since I started Brain Wave Vibration in the spring of 2008, it has been easier to keep my body and brain in good condition. I started to exercise every morning for about an hour doing Brain Wave Vibration, stretching, push-ups, etc. Now I think my energy sensibility has become much better. And it is easier to focus on my goals, get many ideas, and act on them. Especially taking action is more important to me. A few days ago, I had time to reflect on 2008 and I realized that at the beginning of every year, I’ve made a similar yearly plan. That means I did not carry out those plans and accomplish all of them. In order to change this old habit, I decided to do Brain Wave Vibration exercise and meditation every early morning. I already started two days ago. It’s working. I really appreciate Brain Wave Vibration for helping me change. I’m very excited about 2009

Freedom from Pain

dahncenter — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:14:48 +0000

Five years ago when I first experienced a Brain Wave Vibration class, I was a person in constant pain. My lower back was sore all the time and I had started to have such pain in both knees that I was forced to limp and hold onto furniture to get around. I had physical therapy, which helped the knees. I also had acupuncture which helped with the pain, but pain was always there and probably I was not much fun to be around. When I saw the instructor and the participants begin a vibration practice I thought ¡°Looks easy! You can do pretty much what you want,¡± and I got started. At the first shake I must say had some pain. Gradually my condition began to improve. Now when practice, I have fun! I feel so much better now! I can move my body so much better and although I still have moments when my back or knees hurt, it is not controlling my life like it used to. I do almost anything I want now. Actually because of this vibration class I do things I never thought I would do!

I would like to add that toe tapping and intestine exercises have also been a big help to me. I use toe tapping to help bring my energy down so I can sleep. Intestine Exercises also bring the energy down as I learned about one year ago after my husband was struck with a sudden and very serious illness. When he was getting out of the hospital, I began to feel sick. The MD said it was post traumatic stress syndrome. It felt like I was having a heart attack. When I calmed down enough, I remembered I have tools to help at times like those. I began to do intestine exercises and almost immediately my head started to clear, I lost the dizziness, and I was able to carry on and take care of my husband. I would recommend Brain Wave Vibration to everyone.

A New Sense of Freedom

dahncenter — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:13:56 +0000

I originally took an interest in the book titled “Brain Wave Vibration” by Ilchi Lee when my father-in-law had a stroke at the age of 83. I was determined to help him to return to a happy, healthy life. Through the lessons that were taught to me in my Brain Wave Vibration class and through information contained in the literature provided at the Dahn Yoga & Healing Center in Alexandria, Virginia, I was able to better understand the mechanics of the brain and its relationship to the body.

Bringing the body and the mind back into a healthy balance is an important achievement for all mankind. Imbalances bring forth disease and emotional instability. Proper balance for the mind and the body provide people with health, happiness, and a sense of peace.

I am pleased to say that my father-in-law has returned to good health. Through my journey with Dahn Yoga, I was able to stimulate a natural healing ability within myself and a confidence in my path to being a better healer. After reading the book, I have taught myself how to manage stress. As I continue to practice the Brain Wave Vibration exercises, my natural physical vitality is returning and I am beginning to awaken the great creativity that lies within my heart and soul. I am a much happier person. I no longer feel the confusion and sadness that has haunted me in the past. It is a pleasure to see others heal and return to having a good healthy balance in their lives.

Back to Basics

dahncenter — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:13:14 +0000

In this age of extreme complexities, it is refreshing to remember to go back to basics. Our urbanized lives marked by advanced technologies and busy schedules sometimes conceal the natural cosmic rhythms in which our bodies and souls are immersed. The practice of Brain Wave Vibration is a simple way to restore us to the Source and recover the natural flow of life. In his new book Brain Wave Vibration: Getting Back Into the Rhythm of a Happy, Healthy Life, Ilchi Lee lays out the principles of the dance energy that moves and is moved by our minds, and returns to the ancient wisdom of the healing power of rhythm. The exercises included in the ¡°Practice¡± section are easy to do anywhere and at any time, and are backed by the felt testimonies of practitioners who have benefited from them as the quality of their lives improved dramatically. As a Dahn Yoga and Brain Wave Vibration practitioner I can attest to the seeming miraculous power of these practices.

Accessing Inner Power

dahncenter — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:06:24 +0000

Through Brain Wave Vibration Training, I was able to connect deep inside to my true nature. The first time I did Brain Wave Vibration I could truly see myself. I was able to step back and see both fear and power inside of me. I could see the infinite potential and power I held and knew that I could choose how I wanted to live my life. I did Brain Wave Vibration training for 21 days and during that time I was happier and had a more positive outlook on life. I began to care for and about myself more, for example I asked myself what do I want and need more often. I gave myself more time, love and comfort. My thoughts were more positive and I was able to take control of them. I found myself more grounded during the day. In May I had the opportunity to do Brain Wave Vibration with Ilchi Lee. The experience was amazaing; I experienced so much peace and clarity. BWV helped me slow my racing thoughts and use my brain to create positive thoughts.

No more acid reflux!

dahncenter — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:05:14 +0000

When I first joined Dahn Yoga it was to improve my strength and health. I had been on medication for acid reflux for nearly 10 years. I wasn’t sleeping through the night and I would grind my teeth. Through BWV I was able to overcome all of it.

When I first started I thought “this is really weird, but fun.” So as time went on I was able to stop thinking and just enjoy the rhythm of my own body. Now I can sleep through the night and no longer need a bite guard. My appetite has changed, which was very unexpected. I don’t crave things and then binge like I use to do. When I do have a craving I thoroughly enjoy it and that is much more satisfying then over indulgence. I’ve been off medication for my stomach for 7 months. It only took 3 months for me to do that. My parents and Grandparents all suffered from the same stomach problems their whole lives. I thought I was destined for the same suffering. I have discovered the most wonderful natural cure in the world. And it’s so simple.

I used to get headaches for 3 days at a time and nothing I did or pain reliever I would take could make it go away. If I feel a headache coming on now, I know all I have to do is shake my head and tap my toes together for a few minutes and it goes away.

I think because my focus has gotten better, so has my memory. I can actually remember what I had for breakfast today and yesterday. I’m enjoying the benefits of being calm and relaxed all of the time. My teenagers can’t push me over the edge anymore, which has been puzzling for them. But they are also learning to relax and go with the flow.

I’ve shared this technique with my friends and they have felt the calming effect it has.

Quiet Joyful Calm

dahncenter — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 22:39:09 +0000

When I came to the Dahn Yoga Center 2 years ago, I didn’t know that the continual thoughts in my head could stop. I was stressed, having difficulty sleeping, and often impatient. Brain Wave Vibration is healing me! My life is more joyful. I usually sleep well at night. When I’m teaching, I feel calm and confident. There are actually times when my head doesn’t feel crammed full of thoughts! Such Light! Such Joy!

Midway through my 21 day training

dahncenter — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 22:18:31 +0000

You may have seen my post several days ago on my first day of a special form of 21-day Brain Wave Vibration training. Today is day 11 and I wanted to update you on my progress. The training is to bow 300 times each day for 21 days. I have learned a lot about myself so far. For example, when I began this training I didn’t fully comprehend the commitment and the importance of the promise I made to myself to keep training each day. On day 5 I felt tired and only did 160 bows, but I didn’t feel good about it. When I discussed this with the head instructor at my center they encouraged me to make up for the missed bows. This meant that I needed to do 440 bows the following day. It felt like a huge wall was placed in front of me. I wondered if I had enough courage and commitment in me to continue the training. I am proud to report that I did complete the 440 bows on day 6 and I have continued with the 300 bows each day since. Now on day 11 the bowing meditation is easier, my lower body is getting strong, and I am gaining self confidence that will be useful in all areas of my life.

Letting go of emotional pain

dahncenter — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 20:16:20 +0000

Usually when I do Brain Wave Vibration I feel a lot of energy moving in my body. It starts from my head and works its way down. The one time I felt a lot more was just a few days ago when I took the Brain Management Consultant course with Regional Director Kim. I had shaking through my torso that felt like it was out of my control. It was a vibration that I didn’t feel like I brought on myself. And I had a very clear image of my grandmother on my right and my mother on my left. My grandmother recently passed away and I had been having trouble letting go of her. I also had a lifetime of anger towards my mother. Then I had a very clear image of my grandmother slowly floating away. I was watching her and I was trying to hang on. Eventually I wasn’t holding on anymore. Something made me then turn to my left and next thing I know my mother was right next to me. I don’t know when she got there. I automatically opened my arms to her as if I was accepting her and forgiving her for all the anger I’ve had for many years. And it’s probably just a start but I’ll take that and continue to do Brain Wave Vibration.

Virtually Pain Free After Serious Neck Disk Surgery

dahncenter — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 20:14:58 +0000

Ten years ago, I was injured while helping my coworkers lift a woman who had a seizure. I ended up having neck disk surgery and a disk pin was placed in my neck. This was never comfortable, but then last year things really got bad. I suddenly started having pain all over my body, as though my entire nervous system were affected.

Eventually it got so bad that I could not function at work, and I was hospitalized for a while. I tried many drugs, including cortisone, but nothing helped much. Fortunately, the first day away from work, I happened to pass a Dahn Yoga Center. I had taken tai chi before and loved it, so I was interested in giving it a try. Because I was in such bad shape, I decided to take private healing sessions, which focused on Brain Wave Vibration as a healing method.

I experienced the benefits of Brain Wave Vibration right away. In the early stages, I felt like something was shifting in my body. I felt like my body really wanted to get better, and somehow the vibrations were helping unleash something from deep inside. With each session, I became stronger and stronger.

Now I am virtually pain free for the first time in a long time, and I am able to walk and enjoy my life as normal. Whenever I feel pain, all I have to do is take ten minutes to feel the rhythm of my own body. It has shifted my whole outlook on the experience of stress and pain in my body and has given me a real sense of control over these things. I think of Brain Wave Vibration as my “balancer.” Even other people have noticed how much calmer and centered I am. All in all, Brain Wave Vibration has been an awesome experience.
