My favorite thing about Dahn Yoga

…is that no matter what your concernsn or issues are, they can find you a very simple answer.

Instead of observing the many different symptoms of even more numerous types of conditions to treat from the surface in, Dahn Yoga’s approach finds first the origination of the problem to resolve from the inside out. And of course, we already all know our health issues come from some kind of stress — physical, mental and/or emotional — which end up causing some form of energy blockage, but we rarely take the time or effort to look inside to the deeper causes when a physical condition arises. It’s about time we started looking at ourselves as whole persons, whose minds, bodies and spirit all work together to create the single beings that we are.

Autism VS Brain Education

  Autism is one of the toughest disabilities for kids and families to deal with on a day to day basis.  People with autism often use repetitious and self-stimulating behaviors to avoid spending meaningful or intensive interactive time with others.  For example, the child might line up objects on the floor repeatedly, avoid eye contact, watch TV or videos over and over, stare off into space for long periods of time, or repeat particular sounds or phrases. These are the behaviors that lead people to describe autism as a child being in his or her “own world.”  Recently, the mother of a 4 yr. old autistic boy enrolled her son in private BE classes.  After 4 sessions, she has already reports that he is now initiating interactive times with her thru the use of BE exercises presented to him during the private classes.  She is overjoyed to be more effective and enabled to have the mother and child bonding they both need and deserve for a happy life!

My Dahn Yoga experence

Today’s class was very revealing. My upper body, especially my shoulders, was very tight. During breathing posture #5 a wooden pillow was place between my shoulder blades for a few minutes to help open my chest. When the wooden pillow was removed everything felt as though it had melted into the floor. Every muscle was soft and I could fill my lungs easily. Then I was truly able to relax into the posture.

Another happening which I am so grateful for (and so are my kids – I’m less crabby)…by the second week of coming to class, I am sleeping soundly. I sleep through the night, a deep, restful, restoring sleep…a time that I am sure my body/mind have been craving for a very long time but didn’t realize. Now that I am more mindful, many things are changing and changing for the better. Thank you!

Sincerely…

Dahn Yoga experience

I have noticed a much improved awareness of my body mind connection and I have developed an ability to move my energy down from the head to the Dahn Jan.

The Heaven of Dahn Yoga

A member shared about how her health has improved from her Dahn Yoga practice.

She had a few incidents of stroke-like condition during which she would feel the whole right side of her body tense, freeze up and become numb. She had lots of tests done and medical treatments, but they could not provide any help.

She has been doing Dahn Yoga training for 2 months now, and she has seen incredible improvements in her health. Even though she’s in stressful situations, she feels herself much calmer, and she can learn to control her anxiety that often used to lead to her body’s “freezing up.” She feels so relaxed and energized from the Dahn Yoga classes, that she says that she feels like “she’s in Heaven” every time she’s in yoga class.

Interesting saying

“The more the opposition there is the better. Does a river acquire velocity unless there is resistance? the newer and better a thing is the more opposition it will meet with the onset. It is the opposition which foretells success”

- Swami Vivekananda

where can I go?

Dear Master Kim:
Thank you so kindly for responding to my concerns so quickly. 

 I appreciate Ms Denise for asking for your assistance.
Brianne, in D.C. had mentioned that there would be a 21 day training program in Sedona that was to be scheduled in Oct.
By review of the dates you have listed, none of them seem to be what she spoke of, unless, perhaps she was mistaken.  The way your dates are outlined, if I needed to go to Sedona 3 different times, instead of all in congruence, it would be cost & time prohibitive. I was hoping to be able to accomplish the training sessions consecutively while there for about 1 month.
My general health is ok, but not in as good physical shape as I would like to be—working on discipline.  I have MORE meat on my bones than Ms. Denise.  I had open heart surgery, quadruple bypass for genetic vascular problem, over 15 yrs. ago & am ok from my heart standpoint.  In fact, I’ve been able to discontinue all of my prescription medications this past year by using Energy Medicine here in PA.  I take Insulin for diabetes that I’ve had over 40 yrs .now & am a Registered Nurse myself for over 25 yrs.  I had to leave CA & move here to PA last yr. to be closer to my family because out there alone I was not doing very well.  There are no centers for Dahn Yoga near me, that’s why I’m so interested in going to Sedona for the entire training.  Maybe there will be a full 21 day training session scheduled after the first of the new year,  2006.
I will try and call Sedona Center, Friday.  Is there anyone in particular I should speak with who will know the information I’m seeking?  Thank you again for your prompt assistance.
Best Regards,
