Healing the Source is a path to gaining optimum health that is unique in two ways:

1. Dietary programs are designed specifically for you as an individual person, so you experience results which are tremendously more beneficial than with programs designed to suit everyone. No two people are exactly the same, so what works for one person will not necessarily work for you. You learn exactly what will work for your body to heal and protect your health.

2. The underlying source of your health problems is determined using a precise, accurate method so we focus on treating the source, not just the symptoms. When the underlying source is removed, the symptoms will disappear. Health is not only restored but can be maintained over the long term because you now understand how to create balance for your body.

You are probably very familiar with the problems of treating only your symptoms: too often they will respond poorly to treatment or reappear again. In oriental medicine this is referred to as treating only the branches, not getting to the root. To truly eliminate disease and it's symptoms the underlying root, or source, must be accurately determined and treated, then the symptoms will disappear on their own. When only your symptoms are treated, the underlying source remains in your body and will eventually resurface, producing more symptoms. This is why cancer patients may recover from one cancer but a few years later develop another form of cancer, because the underlying imbalance, the source, was never found and treated. Now you can learn the fundamental imbalances of your own body and how to correct them to stay healthy.


How Can I Know My Own Body's Imbalances and Which Foods Will Create Optimum Health for Me?

The first step is to have your Energy Analysis. Through this Analysis Master Sunim will accurately pinpoint the underlying cause of your symptoms, explaining where your fundamental imbalance begins and how this has caused your current health problems. Even if you are in good health now, through the Energy Analysis you can learn how to achieve optimum health and how to protect your health for the future. Using the Chinese system of Five Elements and their relationship to your five major internal organs, you will gain a clear picture of the internal balances or imbalances you were born with and understand your Body Character. You will also learn how these factors can affect your health, emotions and personality. As foods also contain these Five Elements you will receive diet recommendations specifically designed to balance your individual body. Learn which foods will strengthen your weak organs and which foods you must avoid because you already have too much of that kind of energy. You will begin to experience beneficial changes within one to three weeks after starting the diet.

Energy Analysis Testimonials

"I have referred over 100 patients, colleagues and friends to Master Sunim for his Energy Analysis, with remarkable success. My whole family, including my wife and two young children have practiced Master Sunim's dietary guidelines for over 3 years. His dietary recommendations are part of a life-long process of staying healthy, based on an understanding of our innate constitution or energy. Sunim has adapted an ancient form of knowledge that allows any of us to be treated as unique individuals, tapping into the healing and nourishing qualities of food that best suit our very specific needs. Results for the great majority of my patients have been so clearly positive that I am convinced that mixing the best practices of Eastern and Western medicine is the future of health in the 21st century. In my opinion, Master Sunim is a master healer who provides a unique service to all that he comes in contact with. I strongly recommend his practices to anyone who is serious about their well-being and willing to learn from a Master."

"Our baby was strong and healthy up until 12 months of age when he continued to grow taller, but did not gain weight. His cheeks lost their rosiness, his appetite diminished and he became irritable. At about 15 and 18 months of age, he experienced a febrile seizure which was thoroughly evaluated with university pediatric neurologists. There were no explanations, and no remedies other than to begin drug treatment. I sought the advice of Master Sunim because of positive results I had personally experienced. We learned that our son's energy was extremely hot and dry; he needed to begin to eat a cooling diet. Within one month, his pink cheeks had returned, he gained weight, and his enthusiastic and positive personality returned. Our boy is now nearly 4 years old, is large, strong, happy and has exhibited no further seizures. We believe that Master Sunim's solution was the best path to have taken."

"Master Sunim's approach was very unique and useful for me. I had honed in on my constitution through other methods but he allowed me to notice even more specifically the difference between hot and cold body systems and foods. I did not know I had excess heat in my upper body and his diagnosis helped me to bring much greater balance through the foods I now choose and the way I work with my body in my yoga practice. Now my energy is more balanced and clear and my health very good. I recommend him to everyone interested in optimal health and vitality."

"Since having my Energy Analysis I have been on the Lesser Yang diet for three weeks. My acid reflux has stopped, the indigestion has greatly improved, I've lost weight with no effort, and I feel cleansed and healthy."

"Dear Master Hyunoong Sunim and Jaguang,

Truly, I've never been so grateful to someone I've never met. The Energy Analysis you gave me did more than I could have ever dreamed.

When I received my program from you, I had had a rash on my neck, frequent urination at night, sleep interrupted by incredible thirst, night sweats, and frequent frightening dreams that woke me with a rapidly beating heart. I also was having tinnitus. Within the first week, I started sleeping through the night and my dreams stopped -- I could hardly believe it. By the end of the second week, the rash was gone and the tinnitus vanished. All of my above symptoms ceased. Bonus side-effects: my congested skin cleared to near perfection and my very oily, drab hair became less oily and very shiny. After years of trying to eat "right", going to the gym, and never being able to lose even half a pound, trimming and toning began.

My first response to having to avoid the warming foods was sadness; now I couldn't care less. I add forbidden foods now and then to see the effect and it never ceases to amaze me. One last benefit I have noticed is less desperation for the "need" to eat certain foods, less desperation to buy something just because it's a good deal. I have more satisfaction for what I already have in my life, and less need to acquire things I don't really need. This benefit was more difficult for me to see, but it just might be the most important one. Gaining this knowledge of how food affects me has been invaluable. So again, many, MANY thanks and please accept my complete gratitude for your service."

"Since you first provided the analysis, a lot has changed. Overall, the diet has been amazing. Previously, I was too nauseous to each much, and had lost so much weight that I weighed as little as I did when I was 12 years old. I also stopped having my period. Since beginning the diet, I have gained back the weight that I lost and started having my period again. In addition, I have more energy, and the burning pains I was having in my liver/gall bladder area have decreased in both frequency and duration. I am also becoming more sentitive to my body's needs and am becoming more adept at discerning what food my body needs at any given moment in time. This is amazing to me. "

"My chronic constipation is completely gone: the diet has eliminated all of the minor digestive problems that I had for many years. My sugar cravings are gone too. I feel calmer and more peaceful. Despite the extreme heat this summer, my energy level remains good. Moreover, the diet and herb treatment seems to have eliminated the pain I had in my back, and lessened my chronic neck/shoulder pain as well! I would recommend Energy Analysis to others, in particular if they have a seemingly insoluble chronic or "mysterious" symptom or ailment that does not respond to treatments they have tried. "

"When I first met Venerable Hyunoong Sunim in April of 2001 I was very ill with the symptoms of Lyme Disease/Chronic Fatigue. My symptoms included: difficulty sleeping peacefully, fevers and chills even when the room temperature was comfortable, severe total body aches and pains, knee swelling and pain, headaches, sensitivity to light and sounds, unable to sit in front of a computer without getting very weak and sick, massive ringing of the ears, tingling down the arms and legs, numbness, chest pains, shooting pains down the arms and legs, very painful soles of feet, nausea, indigestion, skin rashes and pimples, crying spells for no apparent reason, feelings that I was going to die, hair falling out, irregular heart beat at times, etc.

As of today, April of 2005, my health is continuing to improve. I now have a greater sense of well-being than I've ever felt before. I would say that I'm symptom free, give or take an ache or pain here or there. But those aches and pains do not come close to how they were when I was ill. Sunim's recommendations have provided me with the foundational practices that can be worked easily into my daily life with dedication. It takes time to heal a body that has become so ill, but it can be done!

I continue to practice my Lesser Yang diet, Water Rhythm, and other recommendations I received from Sunim. Learning the Taoist Breathing Meditation ("Sun-Do") has brought me much joy, peace, balance and a greater sense of well-being. Every morning I look forward to my Sun-Do practice. I now find myself in the position of being able to give back to others, and offer a bodywork practice called Bowen Therapy. I feel truly fortunate and blessed to be alive and to have met such caring and compassionate people as Sunim, Jaguang and all the others at the Sixth Patriarch Zen Center. Thank you. "

"Most of my life I had suffered from allergies, chronic excruciating headaches, stomach ulcers, constipation, kidney infections, and arthritis. Later in life I also developed low energy, angina, high cholesterol, occasional high blood pressure and candida albicans. After following Sunim's Body Character diet recommendations for one year most of the above problems vanished. After six months on the Water Rhythm Practice which he teaches in his Healing Retreat, I lost my excess 20 pounds and my cholesterol dropped 100 points to a normal level. At age 70 I had the blood pressure of a 20 year old. Now, after three years on Water Rhythm the debilitating arthritic pain in my spine, neck and shoulders (which I had had for 40 years) is 95% gone! These diets only require faith and discipline. What a gift!! Thank you Sunim."

"After six weeks on my Body Character diet I am completely off my thyroid medication! My joints feel better, my irritable bowel syndrome has greatly improved and continues to improve. I used to be hungry all the time -- if I didn't eat, my body temperature and energy levels would drop. Now I need less food without these problems. I can eat fibre foods I couldn't before, and the mystery of why I could eat some fibres and not others, is solved. I sleep deeper and longer, and feel more rested in the morning. I hold onto muscle mass easier and feel stronger. Overall I have more energy and feel clearer. This has created a psychological, emotional and spiritual transformation as much as a health tranfomation.The benefits I've experienced are so numerous, it's just amazing!"

"After 4 months on the diet recommended by Master Sunim, my cold and exercise induced asthma that I had had for 44 years seems to have disappeared. I now actually look forward to walking in very cold weather just to experience that these symptoms no longer manifest. I have also experienced other improvements..."

"Your Energy Analysis is the single most healing experience I have had in my fifty-four years. Over the past fifteen years I have tried acupuncture, chi gong, tai chi, yoga, Western drugs, Chinese herbs and many forms of body work. None have touched the core of my imbalance like your profoundly accurate Analysis. Since beginning your diet I have experienced more joy and aliveness than I can ever remember -- it's as though my body has finally found the right fuel. You have discovered a profound truth about the physical body. Your Analysis can change lives and I thank you deeply."
