Benefits: According to Ilchi Lee instructions this exercise will help circulation, open blockages, and release stagnant energy from your whole body. It enhances blood and Ki circulation and relaxes the abdominal area.

Note: If you feel discomfort in any area of the body you are tapping, do so more lightly. This is particularly important if you experience stomach distress. Also, do not press into that area. Instead, gently rub hands together and lightly massage that area.

1. Relax the upper body, bend your knees slightly,and balance your weight evenly on both feet.

2. Make a light fist and gently tap the chest, the stomach, ribs, and whole abdomen area while exhaling with a “Aaah-” sound.

3. Continue this motion for five minutes.

4. Focus your consciousness on the areas where you feel achy and stiff, then breathe out with the feeling of letting out the impure energy accumulated in those areas. Close your eyes and focus on the vibration of the tapping as it penetrates deep inside the boay.
