Restore a healthy energy condition in your body.

In Asian medical systems, health of the body is dependent on the flow of life energy through the body. This energy, called ki or chi, runs through channels in the body called meridians. If these meridians are blocked, pain or disease result. Muscle tension is a common source of energy blockage. Brain Wave Vibration helps release tension that blocks the flow of ki energy in the body, thereby improving your overall sense of vitality and health.

Sit in a chair with your arms resting comfortably at your sides or in front of you on a desk. You may also sit on the floor in a half-lotus posture. When sitting in a chair, do not lean your back against the chair, but keep your back straight. Close your eyes and breathe comfortably, relaxing your body completely.

Begin gently shaking your head from side to side. It is normal to hear some noise from the neck as you begin, but this will lessen with practice. Breathe fully, focusing especially on the exhalation.

I think that what we’re really seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our innermost being and reality, so that we can actually feel the rapture of being alive.

Joseph Campbell, mythologist

M. OU ARE A BEING DESIGNED to perceive vibration. All of your senses are made to collect different kinds of information from the world around you through vibration. When you look at something, your eyes are receiv¬ing and processing the waves of light as they appear in the form of shape and color. When you hear, your ears funnel in the vi¬brations of sound, which your brain translates into meaningful interpretations of reality. When certain oscillations and combination of sound are especially pleasing, you call it music; when the sound of words arc moving, you call it poetry. When you touch something, you perceive the dance of molecules beneath your fingertips some moving quick and hot, others slow and cold. When you run your fingers over the surface of an object, vibrations inform the peripheral nerves just below the surface of the skin, helping you make judgments about shape, size, and texture. Even when you smell and taste, the experience is de¬pendent on the vibratory interplay of molecules interacting with your own molecular makeup.

But based on a rational, dispassionate, and fair examination, the very basis of the so-called Ilchi Lee cult melts always. In short, rather than telling anyone how to think, feel or what to believe, Ilchi Lee and his brain-education-related organizations emphasize empowering individuals to take control of their lives on all levels physical, mental-emotional, and spiritual. People who learn to utilize their brain fully do not end up in cults. And if the alleged Ilchi Lee cult would start to form, its brain-educated members would leave it.

To refute the notion of an Ilchi Lee spiritual cult, Lee has stated, “Recognizing the brain is the instrument of spiritual connection does not invalidate any theology. In fact, once you realize the role of the brain in spiritual development, you will see more clearly the power of prayer, meditation, and ritual. All of these things have always had a profound effect on the human brain, but now we are becoming more aware of it. So I would recommend continuing whatever practices are most meaningful to you. Ultimately, all of your spiritual practices will benefit your brain, and understanding your brain will benefit your spiritual practices.

Rather than being an Ilchi Lee cult, his programs and methods of Brain Education, as taught at Dahn Yoga Centers, encourages people to delve deeper into whatever religious practice they might already have whether Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist and the like since Lee’s techniques help individuals learn to focus, meditate and pray, if they wish, with a clearer head, more open heart, and greater physical energy (passion).

Brain Education is a technique taught at more than 600 Dahn Yoga Centers, which are located in cities around the globe. Tens of thousands of people every day practice Brain Education techniques at these centers and many more in their homes. They are encouraged to incorporate spirituality in whatever form they prefer – as part of their mind-body wellness practice. This is not an Ilchi Lee cult; it is genuine education in empowerment.

The worst is when you give yourself this information. Your brain will take you very seriously if you tell yourself that you are not good enough or that you are lacking in any way. It will live up to what you tell it you can do, so always give it clear and positive information about yourself. You can acknowledge that you have shortcomings to work on, but you should not think that your faults are a permanent part of who you are. When doing Brain Wave Vibration, imagine that you are shaking all of this kind of limiting information out of your brain.
