I joined Dahn Yoga Center at Palatine in May, 2006, after completing an intensive Internship program for almost 2 years as a therapist at Alexian Mental Health Center at Arlington Heights, Illinois.  When I graduated, I had all kinds of arthritic problems all over my back, fingers, legs, and had put on some weight.  Since I was recently divorced, I was also completely stressed out, and taking pain killers and anti-depressions each day, in order to do the best job for my patients.  Moreover, being just divorced in the USA, I was blamed for many untruth things, since divorce is never accepted in both of our families in India.  I was in the worst shape physically, emotionally and spiritually.  I felt that I was all alone in this world.  But I had to put on a strong face for my patients and professors.

After being with the Dahn Center, I noticed that I had more or less stopped taking all kinds of medicines,  I was also slowly beginning to be flexible.  A few months later with the Dahn Center, I noticed that I did not require any medicines for my problems.  Wow!! I was very surprised.  I was also saving money from my prescription, since the insurance does not cover anti-depressant.

These positive results were due to all the techniques learned from the Meridian Stretching, Tapping, Rotation, Jung Chun Breathing, and Meditation.  I was also getting lots of help from all my wonderful Masters from our many Centers.  They were always helping me to grow, in order to become a wonderful human beings as I was meant to be as a person.  I am very thankful for having them in my life.  They are my family, since my families are so scattered and so far away from here.  I am very glad to have them in my life.  These masters are wonderful people, who are dedicated for the betterment of us, the human.  Their love, care and dedication, have made me grow more stronger each day, even though I am getting chronologically old.  From my various training and meetings, my Masters have shown me that I have my wonderful and pure soul – a true self,  which was hidden from me for a very long time! .

During my various training at Sedona last year, my swollen and arthritic fingers got healed after many years.  I was extremely excited about it.  All my masters call me “Healer Nim” with so much love, respect, affection and warmth, Sometimes, I cry how they care and love me so much.  I wonder where they were all these years, when I needed them.  I am glad they are here for me.  I don’t know how I could live without them.  I am sure they will teach me this too.  I will love them till the day I die.  All I can say is that due to some Karma, they came into my life to help me, and I am very grateful and thankful to them.  Of course, I give them hard times at times, but they love me nonetheless.  God could not be everywhere, that is why, I have my new family, my wonderful Masters.  Thank you very much Ilchi Lee.
