      Feb. 28th, I did a Paida Lajin seminar and a three hour workshop with a group of western people in OR. This is a group of people who are open to alternative medicine; so I was not worried about their resistance.

     People arrived on time and they all gave me warm greeting. I felt I had already known them for a long timeJ. Since there were just 11 people, I did the seminar with them interactively. My husband Dan and friend May who is a certified acupuncturist helped me just in time too. Many thanks to May and Dan! The attendants were very focused and had a strong interest in what I was introducing.

      They were not afraid of Paida (slapping) on themselves. The sound of Paida was even louder than a group of Chinese people-- I was pretty surprised! A couple of them were planning to just attend the seminar but after the seminar, they canceled their planned activities and stayed for the workshop. 

     We had a lot of fun when we did Paida on our heads! I asked everybody to follow the same rhythm and everyone took turn counting the numbers. These people knew a lot of different languages. We counted in Spanish, Chinese, English, different rhythm and so on. I told them it’s the best if you can focus on Paida and your body gently. But I knew that Paida is something so different from their culture that they needed to have a little bit fun so I didn’t stop them from doing that.

     Scott, who is the owner of Chelseas’ Sanctuary, can squat down, but everybody else could not. That means their meridians had shrunk pretty badly. I told them it’s said that it’s closer to death if you are further from the ground when you bend. They laughed and said that made sense.

     We formed a group with three people to Paida the back of the knees. They were really working hard to pat for each other.  Even Liz “cried” loud but never stopped others from slapping hard. Men were slapping each other even harder. As a result, they were feeling good and energetic. Aaron who is a Yoga coach said: “I don’t feel tired like before instead I’m feeling good!” I’ll quote what he wrote to me later about the workshop below.

   “I wanted to thank you for the seminar on Saturday at Chelsea’s Sanctuary. By the way, this is the bearded young man who has had pain and fatigue for 14 years. I felt much better the day after the workshop and had more energy than I’ve had in a long time.

     One of my friends, an elder man in his 70s, was thinking about coming to the training on Saturday but he was so sore he can hardly walk and was unable to come. So, Sunday I went over to his place and helped him with Paida for two and a half hours and a half hour of Lajin. Then, afterwards he felt much better and was able to walk.” 

     One of the ladies had really low energy but she didn’t have the time to pat at the seminar since she wanted take notes about everything that we were doing. Her grand daughter always coughs and daughter has itchiness on her feet. She wanted to learn as much as she could to help her family. I think moms in the world are the same in regards to caring for their children. 

     Now three of them are interested in teaching Paida Lajin to others. I think this is great! Our goal is to teach people “my health, I manage.” Since Paida Lajin can strengthen our own immune system by cleaning the blockages of our meridians, as well as help our body to produce all kinds of hormones even stem cells.

     Hippocrates of Cos II said, “Nature heals, doctors are only assistants.” So by doing Paida Lajin, we can be our own doctors! 

     Special thanks to Scott and David! It was through their contributions and open minded way that I had the opportunity to introduce this simple and powerful self-healing methods to western people. They opened a bright window for western people and brought the east and ancient wisdom to people who are suffering different chronic problems, who have been searching for alternative ways to heal. 

     Another special thanks to my teacher Mr. Hongchi Xiao! He rediscovered these great self-healing methods and has been working so hard to deliver this to the people of the world. He has been teaching me so patiently and always gives me positive encouragement to continue on this path. His dream is someday there will be a doctor in every family in the world and I believe this too!
