October 2020 - Just writing to update a review of my experiences with Body and Brain Westchester. In January 2020, I had right knee replacement and I needed major PT just to relearn walking without a cane, doing stairs up and down, stepping up and down from a curb, 100% straightening of the leg and achieving 135 degrees of ROM bend. So PT discharged me. But I was still not myself. So I took two 4 week classes from Master Susan (Toms) in healing Qigong. And yes I learned about the Chakras and learning to harness my energy to relieve stress, relieve pain and become more centered. But I still wanted to learn more! So I signed up for individual sessions with Master Susan. What I learned was amazing. Master Bama taught in finding True Self that we need to heal from within to deal with the stresses and aches and pains caused by stress. The long but not complete healing from my knee replacement was aggravating me. Working one on one with Master Susan (Toms) helped me to integrate the meditational breathing, the energy healing, and to tailor the Tai Chi to the "new me". I now have better balance and everyday tasks are easier, safer, less frustrating. Because I have found ways to tailor or modify the position of my arms, legs, neck, etc. to align with how I (as an individual) can do the movements, get the most benefits from them, feel less stress in my daily tasks, increase my independence and stamina and all around feel happier about who I am and what I can do. Together she taught me a routine to start and end my day allowing me to stretch and destress. Also, exercises to help me throughout the day to not stress about the difficulties I was experiencing in my healing process.
It is not about what you can't do! It is about how to do in a way that you are able to do it. Being mindful and focusing on your inner strength and applying that to the classes and your everyday life is a special gift that makes me a happier person. Once again Body and Brain Yoga/Tai Chi has taken me past a difficult situation and helped me to move on to a better place in my life.
September 2019 - I must write to exclaim my appreciation to Master BaMa for her healing, guidance and support during my difficult period of illness this spring. I found myself with a combination of a possible return of cancer, severe hypothyroidism, a major flare up of rheumatoid arthritis and a big case of fatigue and difficulty with the uncertainty of my conditions.
Master BaMa helped me with healing sessions, great advice, nutritional guidance and being a great listener. She helped me with the headaches, relieving the aches and edema and reducing the stress.
Thankfully, everything was put into control and Master BaMa was an important part in my recovery. Western medicine only goes so far. But the healing sessions helped me keep grounded and finding some relief until the doctors figured it all out. Thank you...
Read moreI have been a member of this location for less than two months. However, since I started here, I've noticed so many changes within myself; phsically, emotionally, and spiritually. Until last year, I had always been a very busy, working mother. I dealt with an overwhelming workload at my job, and also had to take care my child. Gradually, I found myself becoming not only physically weak, but psychologically weak as well.
Sitting in a chair all day at work made my joints become noticeably more weak. The pain left leg and hip area was so bad, I wasn't even able to sit on the floor without hurting. Sometimes, I had such bad headaches that I couldn't sleep at night. My mental health suffered, and I struggled with chronic nervousness, anxiety, and depression.
Amazingly, ever since I began taking classes at this location, I have seen constant improvements in my health and wellbeing. In only one month, not only have I become able to sit on the floor without pain, but my mind has become full of happiness and joy. My headaches have disappeared, and I've become more able to control my own sleep schedule. I am a more energetic, positive person, and it almost feels like I've sprouted wings on my back!
When I took the energy training, I learned that I had many energetic blockages in my body and mind. The training taught me how to clear these blockages. Now, I feel like the sun has come out from behind clouds, and my body and mind are finally able to connect to its natural energy. This is truly a revolutionary approach to holistic health training, which has countless more benefits than only focusing on training your physical body. I hope many people will have the opportunity to receive this training, and improve their own health and overall quality of life.
I deeply appreciate the life-changing efforts and work of Master Jo, Master Dae-Han, and Master BaMa. All of the Masters truly care for each person whose life they touch. They are dedicated to helping every individual achieve a happier, healthier life. Again, I would like to express my tremendous gratitude for all my Masters, and everything they do on a...
