Dear Keri:

Here are some links about meniere's disease that might

help you.

If you wish to mail me off list, I'll be glad to share

with you my personal experience on this matter.

 

There are a few comments that I´d like to know how

could we related them with KY, since I'dont have any

previous experience.

 

I do have a little bit on Tai-Chi movements, that help

to develop a better body balance. If one is a right

handed, right arm and leg are more stronger than left.

So, most of movements are aimed to work equal on your

left and right side.

 

The human balance system is made up of 4 parts. The

brain acts as a central computer receiving information

from its 3 input terminals.

1. The eyes

2. The inner ears

3. Muscles, Joints, and Soles of the feet.

 

These 3 systems work independently and yet work

together to keep the body in balance.

 

When one inner ear is not functioning correctly, the

brain doesn't receive equal information from both

inner ears, perceiving this as a disorted, or off

balance. So, in order to this, the brain sends

messages to the eyes causing them to move back and

forth, making all around appear to spin.

IT IS THIS eye movement called nystagmus that creates

a sensation of things spinning.

 

So, after meniere's disease appeared, I was encouraged

to do exercise, to help the brain to get used to

dizziness problem, so, that it doesn't respond in

abnornmal way, avoiding to feel dizzy.

If we watch ice skaters how they twirl around and stop

suddenly, they don't seem to have any balance

disturbance.

 

I chose Tai-Chi because the movements are slow,

harmonious, and most equal in both sides of the body.

I feel that's why this practice can help to improve

one's balance system.

 

I wonder if in KY there are any specific asanas,

kriyas, that one can work equal with both sides of the

body, (like tai-chi movements effect) aimed to help

the body balance system, regarding the brain as a

central computer, receiving nerve impulses from its 3

input terminals as mentioned above.

 

I'll appreciate any comments.

 

Sat Nam,

Carlos
