Ilchi Lee and exercises of dahn yoga
I have been a practitioner of Dahn Yoga for almost three years. In this time I have experienced many improvements in my health and happiness. Before Dahn, I was emotionally depleted. Stress in my job and in my personal life was damaging my health. I felt sad most of the time. I was bored and frustrated in my career as a physician. I had lost touch with my original intention of providing compassionate care. In fact, I often felt irritated with my patients and angry at myself. I was tired all the time. I had digestive problems and frequent migraine headaches. I heard about Dahn Yoga from a coworker. It sounded like an interesting combination of fitness activities and meditation techniques. After only one class I was hooked! The exercises were simple, but challenging. The meditation was so refreshing, and I had a strong energy sensation in my hands. I could not remember feeling so calm and awake and alert at the same time! I began to attend at least three classes a week. Within several months I felt transformed. My headaches almost completely disappeared. My digestive problems improved, and I felt rested with less sleep. I lost weight and became much more flexible. My family and friends noticed the change in me also.
Since then I have attended many workshops and training programs, each one enabling me to go more deeply into the experience of my deeper self. The inner sense of an infinite and loving presence in my life has been a great blessing! I have also rediscovered the gift of my calling, even though I still have the same job. I am a more focused and caring doctor than I was 3 years ago. I am also a nicer person, and a better parent. My self esteem has improved so much, and I feel confident and stable in my core being. Now I find myself feeling happy much of the time, for no reason at all! I have been so impressed with my growth through Dahn Yoga that I have begun to incorporate it into my medical practice. Now I teach a free lunchtime Dahn class three times a week in my clinic, and have seen my own students experience similar benefits. As a Dahn Healer I have also enjoyed volunteering for outreach activities in my community, including stress reduction workshops for a substance abuse program, an MS support group, a local nursing school, and a center for developmentally disabled adults. I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute in my small way to making our society happier and healthier. And I am most grateful for all the priceless benefits I have received through my practice of Dahn Yoga! I know I will continue to grow in my practice for the rest of my life.
Sincerely,
Deborah
