Here Now

By laughingbelly | October 28, 2007

I recalled some of my happiest memories of my childhood when I saw more than a dozen playful puppies in pens yesterday. Small children and animals live in the moment. No past, no future, and no worries. We need to re-learn how to stay in the present moment, living fully. Dahn Yoga has helped me greatly how to be here and now while focusing on my vision, my life purpose. Believe me,it’s easier said than done. The more I practice, it gets easier though. I am able to be aware of my body, mind, soul more than ever before through body & breath, energy work, and meditation. Empowering my self and people helps me move forward. We can create better, more peaceful world without wasting our energies by being dragged by past or future. Are we here now?

Dahn Yoga Tip 1

One of the most simple and effective concepts in Dahn Yoga is the idea of "breath." All living beings breathe. It is necessary for survival on this planet. However, it is taken for granted by most people. Few people pay attention to their breathing. But the quality of the breath has great implications for the health of our mind and body.

Whether people pay attention to their breath or choose to ignore it, they will continue to inhale and exhale. Through the experiential understanding of the breath achieved in Dahn training, the connection between mind-body communication and breath becomes more apparent

Dahn Yoga Tip 2

Breath also dramatically demonstrates the interconnectedness between people. The air and energy that one person breathes in is also the same air and energy other people have just breathed in and out. Awareness that everyone shares the same air cultivates the understanding that all living things are interconnected, not only through the breath but on many levels. Ultimately, this understanding helps develop more caring, open-hearted individuals and in turn creates a more harmonious world.
