The Benefits of Practicing Falun Gong

My name is Lisa and I have been practicing Falun Gong for the past 5 months. Before I became a practitioner I had various illnesses one of which was a very bad neck and back pain that I had sustained a little over a year ago. For the past year I had attended physiotherapy treatment almost weekly. I was in a lot of pain most of the time. I did not take painkillers so the only way I dealt with this was with exercise and physiotherapy. Although physiotherapy would ease the pain it was only a short-term solution and wasn't effective for very long.

Since practicing Falun Gong the pain has gone and needless to say I no longer attend physiotherapy. I also had various other illnesses which have also gone. Before practicing Falun Gong I had endured these for quite a few years and tried all different kinds of treatments and remedies.

Through learning Falun Gong I have also changed in the way that I deal with conflicts that I come across. Although it is a step by step process I am trying to become a better person by adhering to Truthfulness Compassion and Forbearance.

During this Fa-rectification period Teacher states that we should concentrate our efforts on spreading the Fa [Law and principles of Falun Gong] especially to the Chinese people, both here in Ireland and also especially in Mainland China. We also need to cultivate as well so we need to balance everything and also help our fellow practitioners. Although the Fa is for our own cultivation we also have other very important responsibilities. Of course cultivating well will ensure that we do this.

I have been fortunate enough to have obtained the Fa at this precious time and I hope there will be many more people like me to come soon. I look forward to helping others obtain the Fa and for them to realise just how precious it is.
