Ilchi Lee on Jangsaeng Walking

From In Full Bloom by Ilchi Lee and Dr. Jessie Jones. (p. 179)
You might say that Jangsaeng Walking began as a “lucky break.” Ilchi Lee was horseback riding one day when the horse came to an abrupt stop, and he was catapulted off, sustaining serious injuries for which doctors prescribed a full month of bed rest.
Having always been extraordinarily active and healthy, as well as having helped people heal their bodies for nearly thirty years, I was determined to get started healing my own. While I respected the doctor’s opinion and recommendation of bed rest, I began hatching a plan to get my body moving again the moment the doctor left the room. Though any movement was excruciatingly painful, I began by simply breathing deeply and making small movements. Within one day of the accident, I was able to take a few standing steps.
Over the next few months, as I worked to bring life back into my injured body, the Jangsaeng Walking method came to life as well.
