BR Sensitizing helps us become more aware of ourselves in every aspect of our daily lives. It is the first step in mastering our lives.

Ilchi Lee advice that BR Sensitizing exercise trains you to feel your brain through the energy in your hands. Since our hands are most sensitive to the flow of energy, even beginners can easily feel the energy between their hands. As you concentrate on your hands and massage your face and head, you will feel the vibration of energy.

What does the brain’s energy vibration feel like? Although it varies from person to person, the sensation feels similar to that felt during Ji-gam exercises (see Chapter 4)—a tingling, prickling, or tickling sensation. No matter how small or subtle the feeling is, it is important to focus on it and let it expand.

1.    If you are sitting in a chair, rest your hands gently on your thighs. If you are sitting on the ground in a halflotus position, lightly rest your hands on your knees. Lift your right hand and turn your palm towards the right side of your face, about one to two inches from it.

2.    Feel the sensation of the energy in your hand. Keeping your hand one to two inches from your face, sweep it down the right side of your face slowly and deliberately. Move your right hand upward from your forehead and then down along the contour of your head to the base of your head. Circle your hand around the right side of your face and teel the energy radiate out toward your hand. Once you have felt the energy, lower your hand slowly.

3.    Repeat steps 2 and 3 with your left hand. When you have felt the energy from the left side of your face. slowly lower your hand.

4.    Now raise both hands and feel the energy from both sides of your face and head at the same time.

5.    Rub your hands briskly, until warmed, and gently massage your face, neck, and head.
