5.0 out of 5 stars Great introduction to Dahn Yoga philosophy, July 31, 2008

By

This review is from: Brain Wave Vibration: Getting Back into the Rhythm of a Happy, Healthy Life (Paperback)

In this book, Grand Master Ilchi Lee explains the philosophy and goals of the Dahn Yoga system that he created in 1985 in Korea under the name of "Dahn Hak" (the study of energy) which began with one student in a park and now has 150 centers in the US and 600 worldwide. Dr. Lee revived a 5,000-year-old Korean tradition of humanitarianism to help the world today, one individual at a time.

"Brain Wave Vibration" teaches us to understand our brains in a powerful way that is new to most people. This is an important book both for Dahn Yoga students and for anyone who wants to gain greater physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health.

Mainstream medicine relies on drugs and surgery and alternative medicine uses a less invasive approach with supplements, herbs, nutrition, acupuncture, etc. However, neither teaches people the importance of the mind/body connection and the correct use of our brains which Ilchi Lee shows through Dahn Yoga to be the key to health, happiness, and peace.

Dahn Yoga is a multi-faceted system that includes daily classes, healing sessions, workshops, special classes, a martial arts program, a youth program, a healer school, etc. All of these reflect the philosophy expressed in the letters "HSP" which are on Dahn Yoga uniforms. They stand for "Health, Smile, Peace" and represent physical, emotional, and spiritual health. As individuals achieve these goals, they create healthier families, communities, and nations -- a saner, healthier world.

Dahn Yoga teaches us to take care of our bodies, to "play well with others", to value the Earth which is our common source of identity, and to connect to the universal energy in which we are all one. Dr. Lee's ultimate goal is to create millions of enlightened people to help save the planet at this time when life on Earth is threatened because of misguided thinking.

The value of Dahn Yoga is immediately apparent, but its true profundity takes time to grasp. When I joined Dahn Yoga in September, 2006, I was impressed by the simplicity and effectiveness of the classes, the power of the healing sessions, the warm sense of community, and the number of books and CDs by Dr. Lee. The classes are not difficult, but the exercises quickly enhance flexibility and strength because they are based on a deep understanding of the energy systems of the body.

However, it was not until July, 2008 when I did the 3-day Liver Cleanse fast at the Dahn Yoga resort in upstate New York that I began to understand more fully what makes Dahn Yoga so special. The headmaster at my center in Manhattan recommended the Liver Cleanse because I had had a pain in the liver for several months. The fasting program provided an opportunity to change eating patterns, to address emotional issues, and to learn more about the mind/body connection. After the fast, the pain disappeared.

I was impressed that Dahn Yoga has a resort in such a healing setting in the Catskills -- and similar resorts in Canada, Arizona, and Korea. I also gained a deeper appreciation of the value of the mind/body connection. After the fast, I read "Brain Wave Vibration" and re-read Dr. Lee's "Human Technology" book Human Technology: A Toolkit For Authentic Living. I highly recommend both. They can change your life and change the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars I smile more than I used to, July 30, 2008

This review is from: Brain Wave Vibration: Getting Back into the Rhythm of a Happy, Healthy Life (Paperback)

While I am not a physicist, my common sense tells me that vibration is a fundamental and essential characteristic of all animate creatures and inanimate things. Everything vibrates at the level of cells or electrons. But even though I know this fact, I never thought about applying it to my life. When I first heard about Brain Wave Vibration, this knowledge made the method sound plausible and I decided to try it.

While reading the book I realized that I had been already shaking my head gently whenever I felt distracted by a lot of thoughts or when I had mild headaches. I followed the author's guidance for 10 minutes for several days. While I didn't have amazing experiences like those in the testimonials in the book such as curing polyruria or other diseases, it did feel great when people in my office told me that I was smiling more than I used to. Since I spend most of the day in front of the computer, I usually have pain in my neck and shoulders. Doing Brain Wave Vibration for only about 10 minutes relieves some of it.

I don't exercise much and I have a lot of stress from work, my financial situation, etc. I make it worse by repeating stressful situations over and over in my mind. Now whenever negative thoughts bother me, I close my eyes and begin to shake my head very gently. Soon I feel more refreshed and my mind is clearer. I think the benefits I've received from the book have more than made up for what I paid for it.

This review is from: Brain Wave Vibration: Getting Back into the Rhythm of a Happy, Healthy Life (Paperback)

I enjoyed this book a lot!~ Brain Wave Vibration is very simple-yet so powerful! I have felt so much lighter, brighter and happier since beginning BVW. What i like about this practice is that it's something that I can share easily with everyone, you don't have to be a certain body type or have certain experience to do this. Everyone can do it! This book also gave me a lot of answers to many questions I've had my whole life: why am I here? What can I do to heal myself and heal others? I highly recommend it. It's a short, easy read yet it yields many insights and awakenings. Thank you for BVW!!
