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.

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.

Pain Relief and Inner Peace

dahncenter — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:02:23 +0000

I have been doing Brain Wave Vibration and Dahn Yoga for 3 months now. I find that I have already felt some changes, even in this short time. My long standing ankle pain has diminished – in fact, it is almost gone. I also feel more at peace and less volatile than before. My family is likely thankful for that too!

Regaining stregnth and flexibility

dahncenter — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 22:38:36 +0000

I have been attending Dahn Yoga for 7 months. I believe I was divinely guided here. Physically my body is stronger and more flexible. My joints are much more mobile. I had suffered from chronic pain for 20 years, limiting many of my favorite activities. It has been a rewarding experience coming here to the center. The Brain Wave Vibration is the most marvelous tool for changing your life, your body, your mind and uplifting your spirit. My life has opened up into a whole new world of possibilities. I LOVE DAHN YOGA- BRAIN WAVE VIBRATION.

Now I’m really walking

dahncenter — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 22:17:54 +0000

Due to back and neck pain, the only exercise I used to do was walking–with limitations because my sciatic nerve was pinched most of the time. In addition, for the last 6 months I have had plantar fasciitis in my feet which made walking very painful. Now, after guidance from our Head Instructor Ben on how to walk correctly (Jang Saeng or Vitality Walking), the pain in the soles of my feet has disappeared. And thanks to the Dahn Yoga sessions, which include Brain Wave Vibration, the sciatic nerve has not been bothering me for the last three weeks. When I first began to walk to the Dahn Yoga center, it took me 45 minutes. Now I am able to walk very briskly and the same distance takes me 25 minutes.

When I first started practicing I was concerned about my lack of flexibility, balance, and the coordination of my body, but as time goes by I feel more and more agile.

An additional benefit is that I have lost some weight and for first time in my life, controlling my weight is not a great sacrifice, since my body doesn¡¯t crave food all of the time.

I still have some issues with my back, but I am absolutely sure that with regular training the pain will eventually go away. This realization is perhaps the most important benefit from DahnMuDo and Brain Wave Vibration: my attitude has changed not only towards physical pain but also towards emotional pain. I am not only able to control my body better, but using a few tips I have received, I am able to control my emotions better as well.

Lastly but not least, I found a great group of people who share the same objectives as I do–to have a healthier and happier life.

Thank you 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.

Body and Mind Healing Faster With Brian Wave Vibration

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

I was introduced to Brain Wave Vibration at the Cottonwood Dahn Yoga Center in Albuquerque, NM. After practicing for only two months, Brain Wave Vibration has become a powerful tool used to rid my body of stress and negativity while helping me focus on healing my back. The recovery time of my back injury decreased while my body and brain increased in strength. Now focusing on other personal goals is helping me to achieve personal success through Brain Wave Vibration. I could not be happier! My family loves to see my big smiling face after each class.

Hope for Colon Cancer Suvivor

dahncenter — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 19:32:47 +0000

One never knows where life will take you or what obstacles in life you have to face. In the early Fall of 2006, at the age of 50, I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon Cancer and its repercussions. Six months later, destiny led me into the doorway of a new beginning. Yoga as I knew it just meant another type of vigorous exercise program. What my daughter Abby introduced me to was not only exercise for the body, but it was exercise for the whole body (mind, body and spirit). I vigorously and enthusiastically attended the Dahn Yoga program at the Henderson, Nevada center, and still do to-date. The benefits I have witnessed and attest to are real. I have discovered freedom from the enslaved life of illness. My illness flowed into my mind and spirit and I became a dormant (dead) living person. As an Active Teacher and independent Mother of four, I felt useless to the world until I discovered Brain Wave Vibration (BWV). I learned BWV simply by rotating my head side to side and front to back from my brain stem. It initially opened up energy vibration and stimulated the left and right brain lobes. Eventually, the energy that is flowing envelopes my whole body and the colossal, bright and radiant energy entering my body becomes mine and no one else’s. What I witness every time I do BWV is a euphoric unexplainable feeling. Its almost like the beginning of a new life for me. I can testify to pure, self-discovery of my own body. Well into my fourth month, I remember a jolt of energy reaping into my abdomen and I felt some muscle sensation. Even now, I feel great! I work with my daily stresses, my body is less tight, I¡¯m no longer fighting off depression, my muscles feel toned and refined, and I no longer feel fatigued and listless. My mind is alert and my memory skills are quick, as well as those for thinking and decision making. I no longer stress out with enduring headaches, and most of all I feel joy and happiness. I am calm and aware of my body, mind, and spirit. It is a must to continue BWV. I recommend it to the whole Universe.

Brain Wave Vibration can change your life

dahncenter — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 19:30:11 +0000

After living in many different countries for the last ten years, I arrived in Beaverton, Oregon from Shanghai. Although it has been a life of great adventure and challenges, I had not looked after my body and general health as well as I should have. Before I knew about brain wave vibration, I had my gall bladder removed, chronic gastritis, and lower back pain for many years, and it took a lot of effort each day to just keep the energy I needed. I was often very tired. I now practice Brain Wave Vibration every day and openly share it with those I work with as they have seen a drastic change in me. I take no medication and feel much happier and calm most of the time. Brain Wave Vibration helps your brain stop thinking, which we can do too much of these days. I did not realise I was thinking so much until I stopped. My lower back pain is getting much better and my back is getting stronger. I have developed strength in areas I did not know existed . I have done many sports, yoga, and other activities through the years and this is the most effective way I have experienced to heal your body. I strongly suggest trying Brain Wave Vibration if you are thinking of giving up or have intense, chronic pain as I had. This is a simple, natural place to start no matter which walk or stage of life you are in. You only need to be able to gently shake your head from side to side and/or up and down.The rest follows…..
