Thai Yoga Mastery with Aachan James
Thai Yoga Mastery, The Reformation, Bio-Tapp/ EFT, and Thai Yoga Part 1
I was first introduced to the concept of “tapping” to balance energy in the meridians by the late Grand Master of Thai Medicine, Aachan Boontum Kitniwan, in 1988. In 1991, I was introduced to a Japanese variation by the master of Shiatsu, Toshiko Phipps. The initial techniques Toshi introduced to me were performed with a little wooden hammer and probe. We would do a pulse or Hara assessment to determine which meridians and corresponding points would need balancing and then apply the probe and tap it with the hammer. Toshi also related to me that it was her understanding that originally the technique was part of Tibetan and Chinese acupuncture. My feeling and understanding of what these various masters told me is that the use is quite ancient and was practiced in some form or another throughout Asia and Southeast Asia.
