Kidney 1 (K1) the grounding point 🌿
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Kidney 1 is known as the place where energy returns to the body. Located on the sole of the foot, it’s all about bringing us back down…out of our heads and into a more rooted, calm state.
When life feels overwhelming, scattered, or anxious, this point helps anchor your energy and reconnect you to your foundation.
✨ Supports relaxation + calming the mind
✨ Helps with stress, anxiety, and insomnia
✨ Encourages energy to descend when it feels “stuck” up top
Personally I use a tuning fork on this point to enhance that grounded feeling
A gentle massage here at the end of the day can feel incredibly soothing, like a reset for your entire system.
Sometimes healing isn’t about doing more… it’s about coming back to yourself 🤍
