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.

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.

Developing Infinite Mind

I’m sure you could label each one “negative” or “positive” without a second thought. It does not require analysis, and no one had to work hard to convince you that one is better than the other. This is because some of these traits are indicative of people with positive brain waves, while others carry a more negative vibration. No one has to debate about the Tightness or wrongness of these traits because your brain knows instinctively which ones promote health and which detract. Essentially, your brain craves positive vibrations that help keep it healthy, just as your body craves the nutrients that promote health.

Developing Infinite Mind

You may wonder why humanity so often chooses negative consciousness vibrations when the brain’s natural inclination is to choose positive ones. In fact, when you look at the events of history and the current state of the world, you might be inclined to think that we choose negatively more often than not.

Basically. Humanity has become addicted to negative information. At some point in our development, perhaps through over dependence on our rational minds, we convinced ourselves that life is all about competition and acquisition.

Acknowledge the connection

In fact, medical science is increasingly willing to acknowledge the connection between mind and body. It is clear that our attitudes and emotions can affect our overall health. But how are our body and mind connected?

I believe that all the systems of the body are connected through a system of energy channels. Cultures all over the world have sensed that such an element exists and have given it mam names. The Pacific Islanders call it mana; Australian Aborigines call it joja; Indian Hindus call it prana. Native Americans have many different names for it: maxpe (Crow), waken (Dakota), manitou (Algonquin), to name a few. In Asian cultures, it is known as chi, qi, or ki.

You can feel this energy simply by quieting your mind. Close your eyes for a few seconds. Breathe deeply and just feel the es¬sence of your being, without any thought or judgment. Can you feel the vibrations running over the surface of your skin? Can you feel it emanating from the interior of your being? This is your vibration—the vibration of life, the vibration of the universe.

Brain Resonance

All of your five senses are dependent on messages in the form of vibrations reaching your brain. But you may have one more sense of which you are less aware. You have felt this sense if you have ever had your mood affected by someone else. Perhaps you were in a persistently glum mood, and suddenly a cheerful person lifted you out of your cloud. Or maybe the opposite happened, and someone’s internal anger contributed to your own growing sense of irritation.

This phenomenon stems from the brain’s tendency to resonate in accordance with other brains. You know already that your brain produces vibrations called brain waves. This cannot be directly observed, but I believe that these brain waves literally interact with other brains as we interact with people. Thus, we The Language of Life

If your brain waves can have such a dramatic effect on other people, imagine what kind of effect your brain has on your body! Your brain is in constant communication with your body’s various organs and processes. Although we do not precisely know the role of brain waves in this process, it stands to reason that healthy brain waves can help produce a healthy body.
