Dahn Yoga exercises with pressing acupressure points in your neck.
Neck Pressure: Dahn yoga
- Kneel. Sit on your heels with your toes pointing forward. Place your hands on your head with the fingers pointing upward and the thumbs on your BI 10 acupressure points at the base of your skull.
- Inhale and tilt your head to the left. Press the BI 10 and hold for 7 seconds. Exhale. Bring your head back to center. Repeat on the right side. Perform this exercise five times.
The BI 10 acupressure points are located about one half to one inch on either side of the Ah-moon. Pressing these acupressure points helps to relieve headaches and hypertension.
Toe Tapping: Dahn Yoga
- Lie down or sit up with your legs extended in front of you.
- Keeping your heels together, tap your big toes together, and then separate them so your little toes tap the floor on either side.
- Bring your feet up so the big toes touch again. Repeat as rapidly as you can 100 times. Increase repetitions and practice.

We breathe in and out, a lot of times a day. We can feel life through breaths, blood circulation and energy.
Ilchi Lee asks how we should use this life. When I saw this title, it was not that intriguing, but anyway I continued to read the article. He challenges readers, “Is the life given to you yours?” Wow. How strong is that? I felt like I got beaten in my head with hammer or something. If the life given to me isn’t mine, who should it belong to? Can’t I call the life my life? He moves on saying life belongs to no one, which was not less sensational.
Actually I don’t know where the life originally began. I don’t know why I have the life now. I do believe that I am given the life because I have wished for it, but it does not explain the whole story. Ilchi Lee says, the selfishness and obsessions within us begin with the thought that it is I who own this life. We came from the source. Yeah. It’s the same message with that of the movie the Matrix.
