The Dahn way of dancing
Friday, September 21st, 2007Have you ever attended a Friday Dahn Yoga class — vibration class? Or have you ever attended a special training where you do endless energy dancing?
It’s quite an experience.
Dancing is fun, but a lot of people don’t like to do it because they get self-conscious and feel silly. But when you dance with Dahn people, [...]
Dahn Yoga and Age: It’s just a number
Friday, September 21st, 2007Have you ever noticed the Dahn masters all have the brightness and purity of a child?
Yet they hold the wisdom of someone who’s lived more than a single lifetime.
Wouldn’t that be the way everyone would want to live?

Learning my body’s habits: Jaw Tension
Friday, September 21st, 2007I’ve always known that I clench my teeth while I sleep if I’m stressed. Knowing this, I always tried to consciously keep my jaws slightly open even when I have my mouth closed.
One day after a Dahn Yoga class, I was doing some extra Dahn Mu Do training with another member, and she said to [...]
Breaking through the heavy chest blockage
Friday, September 21st, 2007I’m very happy today. I’ve been struggling with this heavy energy that’s stuck in my chest, and I’ve been doing so many different things trying to get it out of me. From doing various exercises like sleeping tiger, sincerity training, dahn jon and chest tapping…And yesterday I talked to my master at my Dahn Yoga center, who [...]
Eating for your soul
Friday, September 21st, 2007People seem to think that only all-natural, organic foods are “spiritual” foods. Although you want to watch what kind of things you put into your body and take in the best kind of Earth energy, I think the focus should be more on feeling your body being nourished through food. What I’ve learned from my Dahn [...]
Improved digestion with Dahn Yoga
Friday, September 21st, 2007Another common benefit of Dahn Yoga is improved digestion.
Because a vast majority of us have cold dahn jons (energy point in lower abdomen) and very stiff intestines, our digestive functions have been largely decreased. By getting the energy circulating through your dahn jon in particular and then the rest of your body, your digestive system begins to regain [...]
Dahn Yoga Energy Healing
Friday, September 21st, 2007Something I want to share about energy healing sessions at the Dahn Yoga centers:
I’ve always been very aware of my shoulder and back tension, so I’d been going to a massage therapist for years. When I started taking Dahn Yoga classes, the master suggested that instead of my regular massages, I try a healing session. Although [...]
Releasing sweat vs. cold sweat
Friday, September 21st, 2007Another thing I’ve learned about my body over the years of my Dahn Yoga practice:
I have a lot of energy, which creates a lot of heat in my body. My body would constantly use its internal cooling system — my sweat glands — to try to release this heat, but because my body was so [...]
Are you breathing?
Friday, September 21st, 2007Sometime in the midst of my stressful job-centered life, I started noticing that I’m not always breathing.
So strange to think that I could’ve lived all these years without breathing….no wonder my body was slowly walking on its way to a complete shutdown!
One of my favorite things about Dahn Yoga classes is that they always remind [...]
Dahn Yoga principles and teachings are open to all
Thursday, September 20th, 2007Not Being Selective
The shadows of objects never leave
The objects as long as the sun is shining.
The sun is never selective and it sheds its light on all objects
And places without any discrimination.
Likewise, when teaching people,
How can you only choose the wise and abandon the others?
You should teach the foolish and the unwise
And change them to [...]
