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.
