Try the following methods, picking the one that suits you best and then practicing it consistently. Each of these methods produces its own unique, subtle feelings and energies. Whatever method you choose, it is important to deeply immerse yourself in the experience so you can feel its essence.

This is a way to create by repeating a special sound, phrase, or affirmation in you-’ mind or out IOUG. I: is very effective especially for beginners, and relatively easy compared to other methods. Frequently, the Dahn Yoga phrase, “Chun-ji-kKvoon, Chun-ji-ma-eum (Cosmic Energy, Cosmic Mind),” is used for this purpose. Inwardly, repeat “Chun-ji-ki-woon” as you breathe in and “Chun-ji-ma-eum” as you breathe out. Repeating words that put your mind at ease and give you strength, such as “peace” and “love,” or affirmations such as “I am relaxed” or “My body is not me, but mine” are also very effective.
