Every time we do dahn jon tapping it takes me a moment to catch onto the feeling.  Bounce the knees, relax the shoulders, curl the tailbone.  Then it comes together and I feel my lower abdomen warm up as the old blood circulates out and the fresh rushes in.   70% of our body’s blood supply is used for the 12 organs in the abdomen.  If we do not consciously move it out it easily stagnates - hardly any of us eat completely properly and so some portion of the inner abdomen is usually always inflamed, irritated, or in allergic response.  By gently and firmly tapping the outer abdomen the vibrations can radiate through to the kidneys breaking up stagnation.  Through reflexology we can also activate our organs as the nerves to all of our organs end in our hands and feet.

Energy is finicky.  Don’t be fooled by the simplisity of the principles of life.  In general our culture is chok-full of cliches because when we look at life it is simple.  But the sayings will always remain cliches because to attain the truth of them is the most complex undertaking.  Through the guidance of Ilchi Lee we learn to walk the fine line of now.  Focusing on Health, Peace, and Happiness.  We combine simple physical training with simple meditation to walk the fine line of complexity in life.  We are exploring the paradigm of there being more to life then meets the eye.

In the middle of the night, the world seems different. The light has a different quality. Dark shadows flit past the windows, the wind makes mysterious noises, and nothing seems quite as reassuring as it was mere hours before. But eventually, dark gives way to dawn, and the birds sing their song of “Everything’s Bright Again” as you rub the sleep from your eyes, wondering if it was all a dream.

Sometimes, it is only darkness that makes us truly appreciate the light.

Today I woke up and said, “Good morning world!” Sometimes the sunlight is so beautiful, no other greeting will do.

Has that ever happened to you?

Everything we do is done with our brain. The content of human life is formed in the brain, and all the problems of life are brain-related issues. Through Brain Education, anyone can practice effective use of their brain, develop their latent potential, and raise the level of their consciousness to have a more peaceful brain.

Today I practiced Dahn Yoga on my own at home. Did sitting meditation for 10 minutes.

When the going gets tough and my life feels like its pulling apart.  I turn to my Dahn Hak Yoga practice and attune and refresh my mind.  Bringing my mind into my body.  I choose how I will feel about a scenario.  I love my Dahn Yoga practice.

“Sun rises to its glory
Casting away darkness
Dawn of a new age
Awaken everyone,
And rise.”

This is from Ilchi Lee’s poem.

Has your sun rose for your new age?

I think when everybody’s sun rise we can meet real new age.

In DahnYoga, not only is getting healthier and stronger so important, but it’s so important to have a goal or vision in mind.

Read this quote, and see if it applies to your life?

In absence of clearly defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily acts of trivia.

It is truly a blessing to be born a human being. - Ilchi Lee

Think about that one.

It doesn’t always seem like it, but at my deepest core I know it is true.

Every ceiling, when reached, becomes a floor, upon which one walks as a matter of course and prescriptive right.
Aldous Huxley

Turning disaster into opportunity… It’s truly all about perspective.

As I am hitting what seems to be an inordinate number of ceilings, I’ve got loads of opportunities here!
