A New Sense of Freedom

March 25th, 2010 dahncenter

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.

Accessing Inner Power

March 25th, 2010 dahncenter

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.

Pain Relief and Inner Peace

March 25th, 2010 dahncenter

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!

Quiet Joyful Calm

January 7th, 2010 dahncenter

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!

Nourishing my spirit

January 7th, 2010 dahncenter

When I started my Brain Wave Vibration training, I decided I would focus on the goal, “I am nourishing my spirit.” I chose this because many times it is hard for me to make even small choices for my highest good. Things like healthy eating and exercise, or procrastinating over small projects, I create a log jam of weight actually & figuratively in my mind, body and spirit.

When I do make good choices and respond to my inner voice (what I call “my spirit”), I feel at one with myself and am therefore more available to others that I care about. I am then able to share myself and give in an open and loving way because at this time I can give from a “full cup.” A long time ago I was told by a very wise woman,
“You cannot give from an empty cup,”–this advice came during a time when a much-loved relative was waging a losing battle with cancer.

After one Brain Wave Vibration training, I watched the tea being poured into the cups in the tea circle, filling each to the brim,and a thought came to me, “She gives from a full cup,” and my heart opened and tears welled up–my sign that a personal truth is spoken. I shared this thought to the group and went on to describe the changes in my thinking and behavior that had been occurring since doing Brain Wave Vibration. The good choices were becoming easier and more frequent, like being on autopilot.

Most important to me, however, was the transition that had taken place during that day’s class. While doing Brain Wave Vibration and focusing on, “I am nourishing my spirit,” the phrase flipped in my head and became, “My spirit is nourishing me.”

Insomnia improved

January 7th, 2010 dahncenter

For the past 8 months, I have slept 3 hours a day, always feeling tired, unfocused, and angry because of the lack of sleep. After just the first session of Brain Wave Vibration, I could sleep the whole night. Since then, I have been able to sleep 7 hours a day consistently. I have only been practicing Brain Wave Vibration at the Champion Dahn Yoga center since Dec. 10.

Emily Cannon Kough Manages Cerebral Palsy and a Busy, Analytical Mind with Brain Wave Vibration

January 7th, 2010 dahncenter

” What I like about the Brain Wave Vibration is not only that it brings my energy down, but it also calms my brain. Also a lot of times, I do the vibration on the floor because I have Cerebral Palsy in my muslce. Its really been I would call it a gift because it’s really helped me work through some of the stiffness and such that I experience. I’m very analytical. I’m a scientist by trade and so I’m constantly analyzing and thinking and planning. ‘What’s the next thing I need to do?’ Even in the morning when I get up and I’m doing the tapping in the morning and the vibration, I’ve already started. As soon as I get out of bed, I’ve started thinking about what I have to do for the day. And so, its been interesting because just that 15 or 20 minutes of tapping and Brain Wave Vibration makes my brain just stop and not be planning and thinking and doing all of those thing. As I’ve heard it described, it seems to settle me down enough that I can sort of logically and very carefully plan my day, but not just be wired and disorganized. It helps me in being more organized. It’s not just that it stops me from thinking and being distracted but I also think part of having CP is I’ve had to train another part of my brain to move my legs. So the Brain Wave Vibration has really helped me. My brain seems more elastic. I’m more free to do things. Its easier to do things, both physically and mentally. Its just really been a powerful tool and I’ve started telling people about it. Saying you reall ought to check this out.”

Midway through my 21 day training

January 7th, 2010 dahncenter

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.

Now I’m really walking

January 7th, 2010 dahncenter

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!
