Saskia's feedback after the healing session

[진영]

<<After a seminar like this, sharing your own thoughts, questions, suggestions, or other reflections through feedback is an excellent way to enhance your awareness and abilities. Writing a review serves as a form of communication between you and me as your JSKR-HK teacher; it is a connection and pathway that allows me to be closer to you. After a seminar, writing a review and reflecting on your own experience is one of the best ways to engage with your practice.>>

Saskia, who is training at the Kumsarang Dojang in Deventer by Carla Kuster, HK 2 dan instructor.

Hi, Saskia,

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful feedback. It truly warms my heart to know that the healing session provided you with both insight and relaxation.

The ability to blend the art of healing with martial arts training, especially through Energy Flow, is indeed something special. However, it will continue to grow and benefit you through your consistent and correct practice in daily life. I'm so glad to hear that it had a positive effect on you and others.

What I would like to say, not just to you but to everyone who participated, is that healing, deeply connected to martial arts, is a journey we can all walk together. It requires openness, practice, and care for both ourselves and those around us.

I hope that the knowledge and experience gained from this session will not only benefit you personally but also inspire everyone to share that sense of peace and healing with those in their lives.

Wishing you continued health, growth, and energy as you move forward on this path.

With warm regards
Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu

■ Saskia's feedback is as follows;

Grand master Kim was so kind to share his knowledge on healing with representatives of the Dutch Haedong Kumdo organization.

First, a martial artist, second a healer, Master Kim, explained that exercising the martial arts is healing for body and spirit.

Both the martial art and the healing capabilities require practice. As a healer master Kim relies on three senses: vision, touch, and hearing, of which vision and touch are primary.

Using his fingers to tap, pinch, or stroke the body of the person seeking to be healed, he determines which part of the body needs to be healed. When a patient, for instance, suffers a lower back pain, he determines on which side of the body he needs to focus to alleviate the patient.
Often, his work needs to be done on the opposite side of the body.

For example, when I indicated I suffered neck and shoulder tension due to office work, he would pinch my right pinky.

Oddly enough, my left shoulder felt a lot more loose and relaxed afterward.

Only if needed, master Kim uses acupuncture needles. Leaving them for about 15 minutes while attending another patient.

This healing session mixed explanation with treatment, leaving our whole group of Haedong practitioners with representatives from the Netherlands and from Belgium informed and relaxed. It is a great workshop to close an intense 4-day seminar by master Kim.

Thank you, master Kim,
for sharing your knowledge with us.
