More than just stretches and acupressure

Do-In is so much more than wonderful stretches and healing acupuncture points. It is that too. But it is also a path to your Tao.

I have set up the three years of training at Do-In Academy to highlight all facets of Do-In.

In the first year, where you learn the principal meridians, you start to harmonize them through the exercises and acupressure that you learn. You purify your energy body. In this process, you break through countless small and large blockages in the meridians that have arisen from bad food choices, unprocessed feelings, old thought patterns and an outdated view of daily life. With the help of nutritional theory, you also increase your life force. You create more balance.

In the second year, we go a layer deeper. We then work with the internal paths and the divergent paths. You can see these parts of the principal meridians as parking lots: what you could not process at a certain moment - physically or emotionally - is stored there. When you clean up these paths, you get more in touch with your essence. Your essence is who you are: your personal way of loving, working and your own answers to choices that you are confronted with in daily life. This changes your view of the bigger picture. In the second year, you practice making your own Do-In series, which deepens your experience.

In the third year, you get to know the Eight Extra vessels. Of course you can experience these in wonderful exercises and useful pressure points. But for those who want, they also give the opportunity to heal your deepest structures. Here you experience the shamanistic origins of Eastern medicine. Shamans have traditionally been interested in someone's destiny and soul purpose and finding a lifeline that leads to happiness and fulfillment. This is where the Eight Extra's can lead you. They help you to bring to light which beliefs you have been given. Do you perhaps have a belief about illnesses or limitations that occur in your family and your chance of them? About the (in)ability to maintain good relationships? About a work ethic? Philosophy of life? Or when life is meaningful? The Eight Extra's help you to come up with your own answers. They also help to heal bigger issues such as old traumas. The Eight Extra Vessels bring you to the deepest form of authenticity. But life remains a journey, even after you have come to know them. Life changes, you get older, society changes: this repeatedly requires your own answer to stay on your unique path in life. So yes, Do-In consists of wonderful stretches and handy acupoints. But it is so much more. It lets you experience life as a magical journey.
