• 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

    Acupressure Point for Colds

    By Michela | December 3, 2009

    In my experience, and based upon advice I have been given from many Dahn Healers, the Dae-choo energy point at the base of the back of the neck is the best acupressure point to stimulate if you have a cold or other upper respiratory illness. The Dae-choo is found between the seventh cervical vertebrae and the first thoracic vertebrae. Stimulating this point with acupressure, acupuncture, moxibustion, or even just a hot pack can release energy stuffed in the head manifesting as the symptoms of a head cold.

    Now some Dahn Yoga centers are selling a new healing tool that you can also use to stimulate this point. Called Mago Healing Power, they are four “stones” molded out of the red soil near the vortexes of Sedona, Arizona. This energy infused soil has healing properties on its own. But each stone also has particular symbols that give it additional healing qualities. You can see how they are made in this video:

    Dae-choo and Poong-moon

    For colds, it is recommended that you heat up 3 of the Mago Healing Power stones–the largest one with the “Dahn” or “Energy” symbol and the two smallest ones with the “Noe” or “Brain” symbol. You can put them in the microwave for two to three minutes. Then while lying on your stomach, put the Dahn on Dae-choo point and and the Brains on Pung-moon points, which are between the second and third thoracic vertebrae. Relax and breathe for at least 5 minutes to release the stagnant energy from these points.

    Do you have any holistic ways in which you heal a cold? Why don’t you share them in the comments?

      Or you can go to a DOCTOR instead of putting rocks on your back. You’re all idiots.

      It’s ok if you are not a fan of alternative health practices, but please do not insult the people who make different choices.
