Grace’s Energy Bagua Story

• High blood pressure returned to normal:
  • systolic blood pressure decreased from 180 mmHg to 130 mmHg;
  • no more medication is needed.
• Blood sugar has decreased to the normal level without changing diet.
• Acid reflux and leg cramps have completely recovered.
• Energetic and independent at the age of 86.

My name is Grace. I live in Vancouver and I’m 86 years old. I had high blood pressure and high blood sugar for over 20 years.

Hypertension

My high blood pressure symptom is a bit unusual. ­The systolic pressur­e is usually 160 mmHg, with the highest at 180 mmHg. But the diastolic pressure was low. It was only a little over 60 mmHg. The pressure difference between the systolic and diastolic pressures was large, up to 100 mmHg. This situation is generally considered a severe manifestation of vascular sclerosis in medicine. So, I had been taking medication every day for over 20 years.

However, the medications didn’t control my blood pressure and caused more problems.

While the systolic pressure remained high, the medication reduced diastolic pressure even more. I was worried and conflicted about taking this medication, but the doctor said I must not stop taking the medication.

Prediabetes

Another issue is my blood sugar level. My fasting blood sugar was 8.2 mmol/L (normal range 3.89 – 6.1 mmol/L). The doctor said I should strictly control my diet to prevent diabetes. I controlled my diet for a while. While my blood sugar dropped a little, my weight decreased a lot. I wasn’t overweight at the beginning, so anyone who saw me would say I was thin. My medical examination showed that I was even underweight. I couldn’t touch any sweets, snacks, or fruit. Eating was particularly inconvenient.

Acid Reflux & Leg Cramps

In addition to high blood pressure and high blood sugar, I also had gastroesophageal reflux disease and cramps in my calves.

My stomach acid often rose and caused pain in my esophagus. When it was severe, the doctor would prescribe acid-suppressant medication. These types of medications have many side effects, and the most common one is causing osteoporosis. As an elderly person, I am the most afraid of osteoporosis. So, I was lingering in fear whenever I took this medicine.

Moreover, I had painful leg cramps for over a decade. I woke from painful cramps almost every night. The pain was unbearable. I felt it was more painful than giving birth. It was hard to fall back asleep after waking up in pain, and I felt tired during the day. The checkup revealed that I didn’t lack calcium, so there was no treatment for it.

Meeting Energy Bagua

All these physical pain and troubles improved after practicing Energy Bagua continuously for 3 months, that is, after completing the Hundred Day Foundation.

First, my systolic blood pressure dropped to 130 mmHg, the normal level. What’s interesting was that my diastolic blood pressure didn’t drop at all. That means, now, both my systolic and diastolic blood pressure are normal. The effect of practicing the Energy Bagua is even more ideal than taking blood pressure medication, and there are no side effects.

My blood sugar level has returned to 6.3 mmol/L (normal range 3.89 – 6.1 mmol/L) without me altering my diet. The doctor said that for someone my age, achieving a blood sugar level of 6.3 without a restricting diet is very impressive. I have been practicing Energy Bagua for 5 years now. Until now, my blood pressure and blood sugar are normal.

I don’t know when it started, but my stomach doesn’t have acid reflux anymore and my legs don’t cramp anymore. I don’t wake up in pain in the middle of the night. Sleeping is so enjoyable. Furthermore, practicing Energy Bagua has increased my physical strength. My legs are stronger and I feel energetic every day.

Once I went on a trip with my daughter, I was the oldest one in the tour group. But I was always walking and hiking at the front of the group. Not only was I not lagging, but I was also easily ahead. People travelling with me were amazed and praised me.

“Practice Energy Bagua daily to enjoy a long and healthy life.”

Grandmaster JinBodhi

Energy Bagua practice has brought all of these benefits to me. It kept me away from pain and worries and gave me health and happiness. So, I will continue to practice Energy Bagua every day. Just as Grandmaster said, I can enjoy an independent elderly life and don’t need anyone to take care of me.

I am deeply grateful to Grandmaster JinBodhi for teaching me such a great practice. Thank you, Grandmaster!
