Hello, my dear friend, I am Chen Yilin, the founder of Spring Forest Chigong.

Thank you so much for your interest in learning the basics of chisach.

Chisach is a technique created to help you help yourself and most importantly,

to help you help others to be healthier and happier and to feel your best.

Chisach can help relieve stress, help relieve pain, help you recover faster from illness or injury,

and just help you feel more relaxed and at ease.

Chisach combines the energy principles of chigong with the art of massage,

which is why we call it chisach.

Like Chigong, chisach focuses on enhancing the flow of energy through the body's energy channels or meridians,

in part through the power of your mind and your visualization.

Like massage, chisach involves touching and physical stimulation of the body.

In chisach, you use your hands, your head and your heart to help yourself and to help others.

Here's why chisach can be so beneficial.

There are hundreds of energy points all over your body.

Each of these points affects the balance and flow of your body's energy,

but only a couple dozen of these hundreds of energy points are vitally important in helping you to heal

and in helping you to experience and maintain your optimal health and wellness.

In chisach, you learn how to stimulate this key energy point,

and you learn how to stimulate them in a specific order that will enhance the benefits even more.

In acupuncture, they use needles to stimulate this energy point.

In chisach, you do the same thing using your fingers and thumbs, call it acupressure.

Chisach, like chigang or acupuncture for that matter, are all based on the same principle.

Everything is energy, just in different forms. Every cell in your body is a form of energy.

Einstein is damaged that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but energy can be transformed.

In fact, the energy in your body is constantly in the process of transforming.

The only question is whether your body's energy is transforming for better or for worse.

Chisach, like chigang, can help you direct the transformation of your body's energy for the better

and even undo the worse. Your body's energy flows through energy channels, call them radiance.

When the flow of energy becomes blocked at any point, it will cause a problem.

The longer the blockage is there, and the more blockages you have, the more likely the problem could become a serious one.

Keeping this energy channels open and your energy flowing smoothly is the key to optimal health and wellness.

Chisach, like chigang, can help you keep the channels open. It can help remove and even prevent energy blockages.

It can help enhance the flow of energy in your body, bringing it back into balance.

An energy balance is the key.

In Chisach, we use pressure and massage along with the power of our mind and our hearts.

We will be focusing on the key energy points on the head, the shoulders, the back, the arms, and hands, and in the hips, legs and feet.

On each point, we will be using gentle form pressure with a rotating motion to stimulate the flow of energy,

and most importantly, we will be using the power of our mind and our hearts to direct and enhance the energy flow for maximum benefit.

One final point before we begin, and this is the most important point.

If you are a student of Spring Forest Chigang, you will have heard me say this many times.

Mahatma Gandhi said, love is the simplest force in all the universe, and it is also the most powerful.

This is so true. The most powerful healing energy in all the universe is love and conditional love.

Even if you don't always feel loved or loving, this unconditional love exists within you.

Even if you don't always see it in others, this love exists within them too.

Before you begin a Chisach session, whether you are helping others or helping yourself, first put a smile on your face, and then focus on your heart.

Focus on this unconditional love within you, call the point the love of God to assist you, or call the point the unconditional love from the universe.

If you call the point this unconditional love, it will always be there to help you.

See this love as a beautiful light that fills your heart to overflowing.

Allow this love to flow from your heart and through your hands into the person you are helping.

Visualize it happening or just say it in your mind and be confident that this loving healing energy is there to assist you.

See this healing light flowing into each energy point you are stimulating, whether on yourself or on others.

There is nothing more powerful and healing than unconditional love.

And the best part is the more healing energy you share with others, the more healing energy you will draw into yourself.

On the following tracks on this CD, I will teach you the process of Chisach step by step.

All you have to do is follow along. You might find it helpful to play these tracks in the background as you are learning and practicing your Chisach.

As you are learning Chisach, don't be too concerned about not finding the exact energy point.

As you practice more, this will become easier to do.

As long as you are in a general area of the point, by massaging in a circular manner, you are stimulating the energy flow in the entire area,

and energy will flow into the specific point and associated energy channels.

And that is always a very beneficial.

In Chisach, as in Spring Forest Chigong, we always focus on the concept of good, better and best.

Everything you do to help yourself and especially to help others is good.

The more you do it, the better it is.

And if you are working from the unconditional love in your heart, that is the very best.

So, before you begin a Chisach session, whether working on yourself or helping others, put a smile on your face.

The simple act of smiling immediately helps your body to relax.

A smile also sends a message to your brain to produce endorphins.

The body's natural, feel-good hormone.

If you are helping another person, your smile will help them to relax too.

Also, the simple act of smiling helps you to open your connection to the unconditional love in your heart.

That's what smile means.

SMILE start my internal love engine.

A smile helps you open your heart.

Next, focus on the love in your heart and feel it growing.

Then, feel that love, that healing light flowing from your heart into your hand

and through your hands into the energy points you are working on.

A smile will help your chisach be even more effective.

And now, we are ready to begin.
