Now that we’re quite deep into the kidney/water 💧season, it’s a good time to get acquainted with this point. Known as Kidney 1 or Bubbling Springs, this point calms the spirit and helps to descend the heat in the body. It’s also a great point to massage for insomnia, poor memory, nervousness and shortness of breath. The kidneys are the batteries of the body. As we get older, our kidney qi starts to deplete. This practice helps to restore the kidney energy and empty the mind and the busyness of the day. You can also use the palm of your hand to massage the point. Warming your feet before bed helps your mind to drop down in your body. 👣 Feel the Mother Earth 🌎 absorb your stress and thoughts.

It is said that by rubbing the Bubbling Springs 100 times you will live 100 years…………🧘🏻‍♀️

“You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind and the cold, wintery light. But you knew there would always be the spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen.“
~ Ernest Hemingway

…………………………🖤
Part 1:
Exquisite chat on a rainy day with my dear and wonderful student and friend .natasha

Carrying on where we left off on the last talk, Natasha and I discuss how to bring self-care more easily into our daily lives. And beyond that, exploring how we can bring more meaning into these practices by using tools of deeper Presence and awareness to create a sense of Ritual. Instead of wellbeing becoming another thing on our to-do list, it becomes a more fulfilling experience. An honouring of our authentic Self. Where life moves out of the ordinary and into the Sacred. 🤲🏻✨

“What do humans go to art for, but to locate within themselves that inward turning eye, which breathes significance into all of existence – for what is art but the act of infusing matter with the breath of God?”

The Microcosmic Orbit is a circulation in the body that runs through the conception and governing vessels of the front and back body. 🔥 Moving it in the fire cycle brings a more forward masculine quality to our energy.💧Moving it in the water cycle brings a more receiving and relaxing quality to our energy. As small and delicate as this movement might appear, it’s actually quite profound. There is much more going on internally than meets the eye. And, it requires a certain level of meditative awareness to be able to move the qi/energy as well as the physical body. 🧘🏻‍♀️

Delving deeper into ourselves with these ancient movement practices, heal us not only on the physical level, but also the emotional and spiritual levels. Thus allowing us to experience the wholeness of our true nature. 🌱
