In today’s fast moving world, everyone is very busy in
making money, working towards progressive career etc. People have forgotten
that Health is Wealth, even if they
still remember this, but they don’t get enough time to work out. However, there
is an old Chinese simple touch & stroke therapy “Do-en” that helps people de-stress in just a few minutes. If one practices
it every day, then one will feel like a newborn again.
This exercise like taking a physical energy bath that
refreshes whole body & mind. The Chinese believe that doing this everyday
can give one a healthy life to the age of a hundred.
Do-en exercise
procedure:
This exercise involves usage of hands/fists for applying a
flowing touch on different parts of body in the following sequence:
1.
Upper body: Apply strokes with right hand/fist on left
upper back, shoulder, arm, forearm, back of hand, fingers, palm, front of
forearm, inside of arm, under the shoulder, side and back. Repeat with left
hand on the right side of the body.
2.
Lower body: Apply strokes on the kidney points,
lower back, buttocks, back and side of thighs & calves, front and inside of
calves and thighs using both hands.
3.
Stomach & abdomen: Using the palm of your hands,
make circular motions (clockwise when seen from the front) on your abdomen, in
front and around the navel. Wipe your palm down the abdomen with smooth
strokes.
4.
Face: Use your fingers to rub the forehead,
eyebrows, eyelids, nose, cheeks, lips below and above, and the chin. Apply deep
pressure on
a.
Inside
and below the inner edge of both eyebrows
b.
At the lower edge of the cheek bone, and
c.
Inside the angle of the lower jaw
5.
Head & Neck: Use the knuckles to knock the
head from front to back, in the middle and the sides; press the neck.
6.
Ears: Pull down the lower lobes, mid and top.
Rub ears vigorously.
7.
Energizing Hands: Now rub your palms together
vigorously, holding them at stomach level. After rubbing, separate them as if
you are holding a ball between them; bring them close together and separate them
again. As you keep doing this, you will feel some energy or magnetic pull
between palms; focus on the energy till it intensifies, and then place your
palms on any part of your body that needs healing. Leave them there for a short
while soaking in the energy. Then lovingly wipe your palms down your body.
