Case Studies Stories

These lines coated from Ilchi Lee book by Linda Mazur, West Linn.

Linda Mazur, West Linn says through the following stories, you will see in detail how physical ailments can disrupt a person’s life. You will also see that no matter how desperate the situation, things can turn around quickly if you give the body a chance. In the first story, you will meet a woman, now on the road to recovery, whose life was completely derailed after sustaining a painful injury.

Ten years ago, I was injured while helping my coworkers lift a woman who had a seizure. I ended up having neck disk surgery, and a disk pin was placed in my neck. This was never comfortable, but then last year things really got bad. I suddenly started having pain all over my body, as though my entire nervous system were affected.

Eventually it got so bad that I could not function at work, and I was hospitalized for a while. I tried many drugs, including cortisone, but nothing helped much. Fortunately, the first day away from work, I happened to pass a Dahn Yoga Center. I had taken tai chi before and loved it, so I was interested in giving it a try. Because I was in such bad shape, I decided to take private healing sessions, which focused on Brain Wave Vibration as a Ilchi Lee healing method.

Create happiness restore a healthy energy condition

Many people carry around a lot of emotional baggage that prevents them from fully experiencing the joy of life. On top of that, they have a lot of preconceptions and judgments that prevent them from simply being present in the moment and enjoying the beauty of the world as it exists. The primary goal of Brain Wave Vibration is to help you return to a simple state of being, a place where you can experience yourself and the world without thought or judgment. With practice, it will become natural to discard old, debilitating emotions and to develop a positive state of mind.

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.

Basic Brain Wave Vibration

Ultimately, this training method is for your growth as a person. This means to go deeply within yourself and, as a result, to expand beyond yourself to something much larger than your ego’s limited sense of self. Brain Wave Vibration, by quieting the thinking mind, allows you, at least for a few moments, to tap into the greater rhythm and flow of the universe as a whole.

BASIC BRAIN WAVE VIBRATION

LJ. LTIMATELY, YOU CAN DO the training in any number of different postures, and you can create your own postures as you learn to follow the flow of energy and the needs of your body. You can do the training with or without mu¬sic, but you may find that music with a strong basic rhythm will help you get into the natural rhythms of your own body more quickly. The most important point is to just enjoy yourself and to let your thinking mind drift away.

These postures are the most basic forms of Brain Wave Vibration, and I recommend that you folksy them in the beginning. After that, you can start improvising according to the dictates of your bodily needs. Immediately following this chapter YOU will find some variations that many students have found particularly useful.

The Head Nod Method

This is one of the most simple and convenient forms of Brain Wave Vibration. It can be done anytime during the day to refresh your brain, even sitting at a desk while working or studying. You can also try this while lying down before sleeping. The Head Nod Method is designed to deliver vibrations directly to the brain stem for deep relaxation and release of tension. After this exercise, you will be able to focus and retain information more successfully. It will also help you avoid the stiff neck and shoulders that often accompany work and study. Try it for just three minutes in the afternoons when you feel fatigued, and you will feel much more energized.

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.

Negative energy waves

I view your brain stem as a marvelous antenna that can send and receive messages to and from the world around you. This medium of communication is called Chun-ji-ki-un, or cosmic energy. Because you are connected to all other living beings through this cosmic energy, you are an integral player in creat¬ing a better, more sustainable way of life on this planet.

No one has to teach you to dislike negative energy waves. It is a wisdom already written into your brain. Complex arguments about morality will seem moot if we just learn to respond to energy rather than to each other’s words. Take a look at this list of human attributes:

Happiness
Despair
Honesty
Loyalty
Sadness
Love
Hope
Disdain
Brutality
Gratitude
