Chinese Meridians

Have you ever heard of the Chinese Meridians?  It is so fascinating to investigate.  I am always amazed to learn more about how our bodies are made to heal themselves and if we listen to what our bodies need, we can really help ourselves to be well. God made us to be well, not to be sick.  Unfortunately, we are bombarded daily with things that our bodies don’t need and that can cause disease.  That is why it is so important to rid our homes of as much of these things as possible.   But that is a topic for another time.   

Today I want to talk about the Meridians and how we can use them to help support the organs in our body.   The following chart shows you the time of day that each organ receives its energy from the body.  You can work on the organ any time of day but it is more effective if you do it during the time it receives its energy.  If the organ has its energy dominance at night you can work on it at the 12-hour opposite, during the day.  

There are also the seasons of the year that make it more effective but you can work on supporting the organ any time of year, it is just more effective to do during its season.   You can find more info on the seasons in the book “Inner Transformations” by Dr. LeAnn Deardeuff, DC and Dr. David Deardeuff, DC.

A meridian is a flow of energy that runs through the body on a precisely defined course. To energize the meridian, choose an essential oil and rub a  few drops on your hands.  Then place your hand over the meridian to its ending point.  That is called tracing the meridian.  Follow the meridian 3 to 4 times consecutively, repeat on the other side of the body.  You can also use the vita flex points to apply the oils, you can find a chart on the vita flex points in google.  Put the oils on the points and roll the fingers across the points on the foot from pad of finger to fingernail.  Do this rapidly and for several minutes.  

The opposite organs, found in the opposite coordinate on the chart, gets their energy 12 hours later than the organ under consideration.  According to the Midday/Midnight law in Chinese Medicine, while one organ is resting, its opposite organ twelve hours later is receiving its energy.   Many times an organ may be acting up but it is really the opposite organ that needs the support.  So it might be a good idea to work on the opposite organ at the same time as the organ that is showing symptoms.

Do you feel tired at a certain time of day, do you wake up at night at the same time?  Do you experience headaches that happen at the same time of the day, or some other symptom?  To use the chart, pay attention to the time of day you are having some sort of symptom.  If you are consistently having the symptoms at the same time everyday you can be fairly certain that you need to work on the organ that is dominant at that time of day or its opposite.  To learn more about the Meridians and how to use the oils to support the organs of the body I highly recommend the book “Ultimate Balance, Infusing the Vibrational Energy of Essential Oils into Chakras, Meridians, and Organs” by LeAnne Deardeuff, DC.  Her book is packed full of great information!  

If you have had a Zyto Balance done pull out your info and check out the section on the Chinese Meridians and see if what it says makes sense to you now that you know more.  Does it point to the organs that you feel your body needs more support on?  If you are interested in a Zyto Balance scan give me a shout out and we can set up a time!

It is so fascinating when you start looking into the many ways our bodies can heal themselves and the many ways we can assist our body in the process.  Another great tool I love to have is the book “Releasing Emotional Patterns Using Essential Oils” by Carolyn L. Mein, D. C.  Emotions are powerful.  They can effect our health either positively or negatively.  

I love this Chiropractic Tenet “the power that made the body can heal the body”.  Prayer, supporting our bodies both physically and emotionally, and positive thinking all play a role in our health.  It is time to take back our health and do the research to be your own health advocate.  It is better to be proactive then to be reactive!
