MERIDIANS - The Life Force Highway

Meridians are the final component of the human energy body. The easiest way to describe them is that they are the energy equivalent of the arteries and veins which carry your blood around your body, in other words they are energy channels.

These channels carry your life-force, or Ki, around your body. The major meridians route the energy lengthways through the body, connecting with all of the body's major organs. There are also other smaller energy channels, minor meridians which criss-cross throughout the body, connecting all the parts together so that Ki can flow everywhere.

SEE the 12 Major Meridians here!

There are twelve Major, eight Extraordinary, and a host of Minor Meridians. Each Major Meridian corresponds with an organ of the body, and is classified either as

• YIN (female, dark receptive, solid) or
• YANG (male, bright, active, and hollow).

The Yin organs (also called ZANG organs) are deep within the body and have to do mainly with manufacturing and storing Ki.

The Yang (or FU) organs are closer to the surface and deal mainly with receiving, digesting and excreting Ki.

Your body itself has Yin and Yang facets, the outer sides of limbs are more Yang, the inner sides more Yin and the Yin meridians flow upwards and the Yang meridians flow downwards.

Because Yin and Yang are complementary, a dis-ease or problem of a Yang organ or meridian can be treated via its' Yin counterpart (and vice-versa) so, for example, heart problems can be treated using the Large Intestine Meridian and so on.

It is on these Meridians that the various points exist which are used in complementary therapies such as acupuncture or acupressure. It is also these Meridians that connect all parts of the body with the areas on the feet and hands which are used as pressure points in reflexology.

All dis-eases (physical, mental, emotional or Spiritual) are due to an imbalance of Ki.

It can be either an excess or a deficiency of Ki, the flow of Ki is sluggish or too fast or there might be a blocked or broken Meridian.

The above has a knock-on effect on the body's other systems, so giving energy healing to a particular meridian is an effective method of treating any problem at the source. See a guide to possible areas in which you or your patients energies may need rebalancing here.

When you begin to develop your senses, a new and fascinating world opens before you; the hidden world suddenly unveils itself - your perception heightens and your thoughts and feelings are expressed before your very own eyes in colour and form.

There is NOTHING in the Universe to be afraid of, except your own ignorance and its consequences.

How can we work with the Meridians?

One of the easiest ways to use the them for healing is by running a hand over the path of the meridian. To strengthen a weak meridian, the meridian is "run" forwards, from its beginning to its end. To weaken or sedate a meridian that is over-energized and that is drawing energy from other systems, the meridian is run backwards from end to beginning.

For an example, to relax and calm stressful energy by sedating the Triple Warmer:

"Running" a meridian in its usual direction strengthens its energy, and running a meridian backwards weakens, sedates, or calms it. When the triple warmer is over-energized, the goal is to calm it.

To run a meridian backward, touch the end point, then glide your hand over the area through which the meridian passes, finishing by touching the beginning point. The exact path of the meridian is not important: only that you touch the exact start and end points.

Sedating the Triple Warmer: Use the opposite hand to touch the outside edge of the eyebrow, furthest from your nose. Then pass your hand back (away from your face), over and around your ear, down the back of your neck, across the back of your shoulder, and down the outside of your arm and the back of your hand. Touch the fourth finger (the "ring finger") at the base of the nail.

Now repeat this motion, gently, at least three times on each side of your body and it's done!

Just that easy.

Easy Self-Healing Technique

This is an easy "all-round" healing technique:

Grasp the inside joint of each knee, at the point where it bends, with the palm of your opposite hand, hold it for up to 5 minutes.

This is an amazing technique and works for just about anything, since it helps to clear blockages in all of the meridians and to re-harmonizes the Ki flow throughout them. This healing technique gives a general "lift" to your energies.

It works well for stomach cramps, headaches and when you have bronchitis or similar dis-ease it even promotes easier breathing.

For all you "office Jills and Johns" just press your knees together firmly, you'll be practicing a different kind of healing with your knees.
