Brain Respiration tips by Ilchi Lee
We begin Ji-gam training with our hands first, because hands are the most sensitive part of our body, allowing us to feel Ki energy most easily. When we are able to sense energy in our hands, it becomes easier to awaken this same sensitivity in other parts of the body, including the brain. Although the amount of time it takes to feel this energy for the first time varies from person to person, everyone will eventually succeed with enough practice in Dahnhak.
When you become used to feeling energy in your hands, you can maintain the sensitivity and the feeling without having to be in a special position or environment.
