The 6 Yin channels nourish the organs and tissues of the body. They are more related to the Yin substances like fluids, blood, and reproductive essence (hormones). The 6 yang channels, not shown here, are more on the sides and back of the body. They relate to energy, nervous system, movement and heat production/metabolism. It’s a unique way of looking at the body that is not completely rational, but represents a multidimensional understanding of the actual lived experience and health.

12/28/2025

The heart is pumping blood and yet we know it as a lover, a seer.
Our deepest feelings are physical, neurological, and deeply embodied.
When we feel overloaded / over whelmed by lifes demands, the body often responds by gripping, guarding, or bracing.
Compassion is what allows that grip to soften. It is a turn of the mind that starts in the heart. And just as blood permeates our physical form, so does that spirit of the heart.
Compassion for self, for another.
To learn more of the science behind this, study with me in 2026.

Water Element Support as We Enter Winter ❄️
As we move into winter, we enter the Water element — the season connected to the Kidneys, nervous system, fear, and deep rest.
🛌
This time of year can bring anxiety, emotional sensitivity, and exhaustion, especially when life stays busy even though the body wants to slow down.
Here are 3 simple acupressure points paired with breath to help ground the system and regulate the mind.

KI 1 (Yongquan) 🦶🏻 
Located on the sole of the foot
Supports grounding, fear, and anxiety
Helps bring energy down when the mind feels scattered

PC 6 (Neiguan) 🖐️ 
Located on the inner forearm
Calms anxiety, overwhelm, and emotional tension
Supports heart–mind balance

HT 7 (Shenmen) 💪 
Located at the wrist crease
Soothes the nervous system
Supports sleep and emotional steadiness

Apply gentle pressure to each point for 30–60 seconds while breathing slowly. 🧘

12/06/2025

Twists are for your organs! Often people are afriad to massage deeply in their own abdomen, but many of the postures create intense compression and massage of the organs. So, don’t be afraid. Your guts are tougher than you think and they benefit from twisting, compression (floor bow, peacock), inversions (especially shoulderstand held longer)…. Your Liver, spleen, pancreas, kidneys, digestive tract, reproductive organs, lungs - all need lymphatic drainage and blood circulation and they all are wrapped in connective tissue / fascia that can get adhesions/inflammation. Bonus - Deep breathing also massages your organs.

I am currently working on lectures for next year and I made this diagram for one of the best examples of how meridans can inform your practice and alinment. Not only do meridians help with myofascial integrity and precision, they also bring in awarenss of specific organs (your guts as many call them) and how your organs/physiology can affect alignment and posture. This image shows the Stomach and Spleen meridians. These organs and the entire digestive tract can affect your hip flexors, throat and abdomen in general - this shows up in your back bends.
