• Dahn Yoga tip: Focus on Yourself

    Without a goal, we have no choice but to endlessly chase after the thoughts of others. We envy those who know more or have more than we do, and we live out our lives completely forgetting our own brains. Such things happen to us often unless we are focused on ourselves. - Dahn Yoga

    Heal Your Intestines with Meridian Exercise: Pressing the Palm

    By Michela | July 17, 2008

    The condition of the pad of your hand can reflect your internal condition, even specific illnesses such as pneumonia or bronchitis or symptoms affecting the gastrointestinal tract. Since we all have gastrointestinal problems from time to time, I thought I would share an easy technique from the Meridian Exercise for Self-Healing book by Ilchi Lee that helps alleviate gastrointestinal symptoms.

    Lung 10There is an acupressure point in the pad of the palm called Lu 10 (Lung 10 or Uh-jae in Korean). Pressing this point will help your internal organs and gastrointestinal tract.

    To do this, place 4 fingers of your left hand on the pad of your right hand. Then curl the pad of your left hand around to the back of your right hand and squeeze. Press for several seconds and then release. Repeat this procedure several times for each hand.

      Hello Kajal,

      I personally don’t know enough to help you. But I am asking others about your situation and I will let you know what they say.

      Of course, it is always good to practice any of the exercises on this blog or that you know of that help you release stress and accumulate energy. I don’t know for sure how that will help the hole in your intestine, but it will at least give you the peace of mind and strength to deal with the situation, which is the first step.

      Many blessings,
      Michela
