Belly Button Healing and the Way to Oneness

Last updated on: August 18, 2016 at 8:36 pm By Ilchi Lee

Despite all the many differences between the world’s various spiritual paths, almost all contain some concept of oneness. Among the ancient Greeks, Plato taught his students to seek henosis, oneness with the ultimate truth of the cosmos. Similarly, Christian mystics and Islamic Sufis search for oneness with God and with all of creation. Buddhists seek samadhi, a meditative state in which the individual mind is silenced sufficiently to merge with all that is. These are only a few among many... Read more

The Breath of Life: Using Breathing and Belly Button Healing for Optimal Health

Last updated on: August 11, 2016 at 6:30 pm By Ilchi Lee

“Just calm down and take a deep breath.” If you are upset or stressed out about anything, this simple advice is probably the best you’ll ever get. Breathing is a very valuable key to stress relief—and to emotional and physical health, too. Vitamin O The oxygen that we take in through the air that we breathe is absolutely essential to health, so it is sometimes called “Vitamin O” by nutritionists. But, actually, it is even more important than the other... Read more

Belly Button Healing for Emotional Wellness

Last updated on: July 30, 2016 at 12:58 am By Ilchi Lee

When you think of your brain, what skills would you most like to gain to become smarter than you are today? A lot of people might wish for a photographic memory or the ability to calculate long lists of numbers in their head. These types of cognitive skills, the kind that win us awards in school and impress our friends, may not be the most important, however. In 1995, author Daniel Goldman wrote a book called Emotional Intelligence in... Read more

Building a Strong Foundation with Belly Button Healing

Last updated on: July 13, 2016 at 11:00 pm By Ilchi Lee

You have probably heard the spiritual parable of the two builders—one builds his house upon the rock and the other builds his house upon the sand. The house on the rock withstands the storm that passes through the land, while the house on the sand collapses and washes away. Of course, this story is referring to the need to base your life on truthful spiritual principles, but did you know the same is true for your body? Yes, like a... Read more

The Power of Gratitude: Accessing the Energy of Your True Self

Last updated on: June 28, 2016 at 6:53 pm By Ilchi Lee

Many spiritual seekers today are looking to put the “law of attraction” into effect in their lives – to improve their finances, to attract romantic partners, or to create a more abundant and satisfying life in general. According to this principle, “like attracts like,” so one must cultivate a positive mind in order to manifest a positive life. Korean Sundo practice contains a similar concept, but it’s a little more focused on how energy works. In English, it could be... Read more

Energy Body Basics: The Key to Good Energetic Hygiene

Last updated on: June 21, 2016 at 11:57 pm By Ilchi Lee

Holistic is a popular fitness buzzword these days. It represents a positive trend that considers the health of the whole person, not just physical health. Since every part of the person influences all other aspects of health, this is a wise consideration. An important element, however, is often left out of the discussion of holistic health – energy. This is unfortunate since ultimately we are energetic beings; Asian systems of health and healing rely on that notion, and science has confirmed... Read more

Walking Nature Meditation: How to Really Commune with the Earth on Your Hike

Last updated on: June 6, 2016 at 4:08 pm By Ilchi Lee

In the past few years, much has been made of the importance of nature for our mental and physical health. People who spend time in nature on a regular basis have lower stress levels, are generally more fit, and report lower levels of anxiety and depression. It’s so important that some are now calling nature “vitamin N.” If you view our lives energetically, as I do, this should be no surprise. We are part of the energetic systems of... Read more

Your Amazing Brain: What Makes the Human Brain So Special

Last updated on: May 27, 2016 at 3:15 am By Ilchi Lee

As a spiritual teacher, I talk about the brain in most of my lectures, and it is the central focus of my Brain Education program. For some people, this may seem odd since spirituality usually focuses on the unseen world, not on physical organs like the brain. Usually, the worlds of spirituality and science are kept separate – one relying strictly on logic and the other more on intuition – but I see them all as part of the... Read more

Spring is a wonderful time of year. It is a time when the whole earth is renewing herself. New leaves and blossoms appear on the branches of trees, birds and butterflies chase each other in the sky, and the crisp air of spring carries the hopeful hint of summer’s warmth. It’s also the traditional time of year for spring cleaning, a chance to brighten and freshen our living spaces so that we, too, can feel renewed and refreshed. This year... Read more

You Are Your Own Masterpiece: Using Your Creativity to Manifest Your Best Self

Last updated on: April 26, 2016 at 2:16 am By Ilchi Lee

Every human being is a creative genius. Most people may doubt that statement, but I truly believe it. I believe it because of one special attribute of the human being – the human brain. The human brain is a creation machine, constantly producing thoughts, ideas, perceptions, solutions, and beliefs. If you look around you, you will see the product of this amazing organ: roads, buildings, vehicles, clothing, paintings, sculptures, factories, schools . . . the list could go on... Read more
