The effectiveness of Brain Sensitizing
As Doctor Ilchi Lee writes in his book the effectiveness of Brain Sensitizing is based on the control of a fundamental principle of life as it is known in traditional Asian medicine. The idea that cool water energy and hot fire energy flow freely in our bodies is known as su-seung-hwa-gang, which means “water up, fire down.” When the body is in balance, cool water energv travels upward, toward the head and hot fire energy flows down to the lower abdomen—the “fire in the belly.” This mirrors the cycle of water and fire in nature, as the heat of the sun evaporates the water of oceans and rivers, which eventually falls back to earth as rain. When the natural flow of these opposites is in balance, with the water energy flowing toward the head along the back of the body and fire energy flowing down along the front of the body, mind and body feel at peace and well. When this flow is out of balance, nothing feels right.
Digestion is not wwking well, emotions feel out of control and disconnected, and pain is common. Brain Sensitizing works to balance these opposing forces during Dahn Yoga training sessions.
