Recently several Dahn Yoga studios in the Phoenix area have offered special classes to members teaching them how to use Wooden Pillows.

Originating as an ancient Eastern healing device, today’s Wooden Pillows look simple enough–an arch shaped piece of lightweight wood with a flat bottom, about 2-3 inches in height.  But the uses for the pillows are actually so many it is hard to cover them all in a single class!

Some of the ways a Wooden Pillow can be used include:

-Stepping on the pillow to open acupressure points in the feet

-Sitting with legs outstretched and the pillow underneath thighs, knees, and calves, to release muscle tension and increase flexibility

-Placing the pillow under the lower back to open the spine (but be careful!)

-Placing the pillow under the abdomen while laying facedown and rocking side to side, clear stiffness and toxins from the internal organs and improving digestion

-Placing the pillow under the back of the neck, slowly moving head side to side, opening up stiffness in the neck (very good for before bed!)

During the classes at the Dahn Yoga studios, members get to experience several of these techniques with detailed directions from the instructor, so they can later use the Wooden Pillow on their own.  The classes are relaxing but also joyful and energizing.  For more information or to purchase your own Wooden Pillow, contact the Dahn Yoga Center closest to you.  Visit www.dahnyoga.com for center locations.

Last weekend, Senior Instructor Chung Suk visited the Tempe Dahn Yoga center in Tempe, AZ, and led a Self-healing course for four members.  All four members reported deep experiences and dramatic changes in themselves, both internal and external.

“It was very, very special,” one member said.  ”We were very touched by Master Chung Suk’s sincerity.  There was a lot of bright energy the entire time.”

The course was divided into three segments: first, the members learned body alignment exercises which helped them correct physical imbalances in their bodies and also start to get a deeper sense of proper energy flow.  Second, they did deep personal training in which they connected to their inner selves and awakened the “healer within.”  All members found a strong and passionate desire to truly help themselves and others unlock the secrets of the mind-body system and heal from the inside out.  Third, with this spark alive in their hearts, members practiced partner healing with one another.  They learned not just physical techniques but also how to connect to –  and then share – cosmic energy with their partners.  Everyone experienced deep purification and clarity.

“Doing that kind of training, you really start to feel so close with everyone,” one member shared.  ”I felt very open and trusting at the end.  There was a lot of love in the room.”

Another member reported great empowerment from her experience.  ”I have always wanted to help others, actually that is what my whole life is about,” she said, “but now I know I have to keep healing myself to really help them too.  And I can do it!  It’s great!”

Senior Instructor ChungSuk will visit the Arizona region again at the end of February for a one-day Meridian-healing course.  Anyone who is interested can contact a Dahn Yoga Center in the Phoenix area for more information.

I have been attending Brain Wave Vibration training for more than two months on Saturdays and Sundays. At the beginning it took me a lot of effort to follow the rhythm of the music and to keep a balance; gradually my movements become spontaneous shortly after we started vibration.

Dahn Yoga is an organization with women as a large majority of its members, instructors, managers and executives and takes violence against women seriously, especially sexual assault. When I do not control my body anymore, I feel that I enter the stream of energy, and the conventional sense of “me” disappears. There is just pure energy, and I am that energy. That is my original face. But it is not just a spiritual experience. In everyday life I feel that old pattern of thought, of responding to different situations, is gradually changing, and I have more compassion and more courage to meet life’s challenges.

-Zoga Royt, Flushing, NY

Through Brain Wave Vibration, I am able to connect deep inside to my true nature. The first time I did it, I could truly see myself. I was able to step back and see both fear and power deep inside me. I could see the infinite power and potential I held. As a result, I became happier and developed a happier outlook on life.

-Sara Chears, Naperville, IL

• UPPER BODY TAPPING

Benefits: This is a very effective method to reduce tension and release stagnant energy from your whole body. By patting, cells are strengthened as they are stimulated and energy points are opened.

Note: Pat the body gently and comfortably to achieve the desired results. You can concentrate better if you allow your eyes to follow your movements.

1.    Curl your fingers and lightly tap all over your head and face with your fingertips.

2.    Stretch out your left arm with your palm facing up. Take your right hand and, starting at the left shoulder, pat rhythmically downward all the way to the left hand.

3.      Then turn your left hand over and, with your right hand, pat your way back up to the left shoulder again.

4.      Repeat Step 2 and Step 3 with the left hand and right arm.

5.      Pat your chest with both hands several times, breathing deeply and exhaling completely.

6.    Starting from your chest, pat your ribs, abdomen, and sides.

7.    With both hands, pat the area just below the right rib cage where your liver is located and concentrate on radiating positive, clear energy to the liver.

8.    With both hands, pat the area just below the left rib cage where your stomach is located and concentrate on bringing healing energy to your stomach.

9.    Bend over slightly from the waist and pat the area on your lower back (on both sides) where your kidneys are located and move up, patting as far as your hands can reach. Then pat your way down to your buttocks.

10.    Starting from your buttocks, pat your way down the back of your legs to your ankles.

11.    From the ankles, start patting your way up the front of your legs until you reach your thighs.

12.    From your upper thighs, pat your way down the outsides of your legs to your ankles.

13.    From the ankles, pat your way up the insides of your legs to your upper thighs. Finish by striking your lower abdomen about 20 times. This exercise is most effective when done with the legs shoulder-width apart with the knees slightly bent.

Benefits: This exercise can 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.

Meridian Stretching is designed to open the meridians of the body and to balance the energy of their associated organs. Meridian Stretching combines proper breathing with stretching movements. When breath is combined with body movement, metabolism can be influenced more effectively.

When the circulation of energy and blood is blocked and stagnant, the Ki sensation becomes dull. Before the beginning of main training, Meridian Stretching revives Ki sensation, which is the core foundation of Dahn Yoga. It helps smooth out energy circulation by eliminating stagnant energy in the body, relaxing the body, and supplying rejuvenated energy. Although used primarily before and after main training, practicing Meridian Stretching on its own greatly helps to maintain health and to prevent illness.

Breathing and meditation cannot be fully experienced when tension is held in the upper body. When the shoulders and chest are blocked in this way, energy stagnates in the upper body, rather than organically moving down into the “Dahn-jon,” Korean for lower abdomen energy center. If the body is not relaxed enough during breathing and meditation practice, the healthy state of “Su-seung-hwa-gang,” Korean for Water Up, Fire Down energy principle can be reversed, rather than corrected. Therefore, Meridian Stretching focuses on relaxing the upper body by drawing the energy down into the lower Dahn-jon.

This exercise opens the energy channels on the back side of the body and stretches the whole body from the heels to the top of the spine.

Note: Don’t try to bring your head to your knees as this will curve your spine. Instead, aim to bring the torso as far forward as possible, while keeping the knees and spine straight.

1.    Sit with your legs together, stretching them straight out in front of you.

2.    Place your hands on your knees. Bring your arms in a circular motion toward the back of your hips, circling them up overhead.

3.    Inhale and bend your torso so that your hands can touch your toes. Concentrate on keeping your legs straight. Bend at the elbow, bringing your chest and head toward your knees. Exhale and return to the original posture.

4.    Repeat this several times.

Benefits: This exercise lengthens and strengthens the muscles of the spine. It enhances the nervous system and promotes optimal functioning of the vital organs in the body.

Note: Let your neck rhythmically follow the motion without pushing with your head. This is best performed on a lightly cushioned surface.

1.    Sit with your knees bent and clasp your arms around your knees. Round your spine to form a C shape. Slightly lower your head. Relax your neck and your shoulders.
2.    Gently roll back with your back softly touching the floor in order to stimulate your spine. Slowly and gently return to Step 1.
3.    Repeat 10 times.

ABDOMINAL CLAPPING

Benefits: Abdominal Clapping is a simple but effective method for strengthening the lower abdomen, especially the Dahn-jon. By rhythmically patting the lower abdomen with the palms of both hands, blood and energy is distributed throughout the entire body. Abdominal exercises will assist in the prompt removal of excess gases and waste from the body, and you will feel increased warmth in the Dahn-jon, as well. Note: Begin with 100 strikes. You may increase the number and force of the strikes with more practice.

1.    Spread your feet shoulder-width apart and end your knees slightly.
2.    Lengthen and relax your spine. Relax your shoulders, neck, and arms.
3.   Point your toes slightly inward and feel a slight tightening of the lower abdomen.
4.   Rhythmically strike the lower abdomen area with both palms.

COMMON COLD OR FLU

Poong-mun (Wind Gate, BLiz): Two finger widths on either side of the second thoracic vertebrae. This is the most vulnerable point where cold and damp energy may initially enter the body. [Fig.13]

Dae-chu (Great Hammer, GVi4): Right below the 7th cervical vertebrae. You can locate this point by bending your head forward and finding the biggest bone where the neck and the shoulders meet. Place your finger right below this bone. Now return your head to an upright position. Make sure you find the point after the head has returned; when the head returns to an upright position, the location moves up slightly.

Joong-bu (Central Treasury, LUi): Place your middle fingers in the hollow areas directly below the protrusions of the collarbone just outside your upper breastbone. Press this point with your thumb or make a fist with your right hand with your thumb folded in and gently tap this point on the left side. Do this for one to three minutes and then switch sides. If this is too painful or if blockages still remain, rub the pressure points with the pads of your fingers.

Oon-mun (Cloud Gate, LUz): Just below the collarbone on either side of your shoulders. Press this point with your thumb or make a fist with your right hand with your thumb folded in and gently tap this point on the left side. Do this for one to three minutes and then switch sides. If this is too painful or if blockages still remain, rub the pressure points with the pads of your fingers.
