Five Elements is a system that has been developed
over the past 15,000 years to help explain the shifts and changes of
natural phenomena and how these changes affect our bodies, minds, and
spirits.
|
 |
This
theory is based on the most scientific of processes involving observation
and cataloguing for over 3000 years.
The Five Element Theory is the basis
for the longest running, continuously used form of assessment and healing
on the planet. The theory depends on a process of generation, destruction,
and control.
|
|
The
basic concept is that by observation, palpation, sensual exploration and
questioning, one may ascertain where body energies are blocked and as
appropriate method of release can be found that will bring the body
energies back into balance with each other and with the Cosmic Chi.

FIVE ELEMENTS AND SEGMENTAL RELEASING
The
basic process of balancing energy using the Five Elements is one of
releasing the excess and directing the excess into the areas of
deficiency.
|
|
Observation of breathing patterns is a powerful tool in establishing areas
of excess and deficiency.
|
 |
Holding the segment of the body where the least amount of breath is
apparent and encouraging involvement of the segment by using hands on
methods and visualizations can release the physical, emotional, and
psychic blocks. |
|
EMOTIONS AND YIN MERIDIANS
The
yin meridians are our connection with the emotional body. These meridians
give access to the language of the spirit ie: emotions.
|
 |
Encouraging, honouring, and expressing our emotions is one way
Shen (spirit) helps bringing our
energies into balance.
Excessive emotional holding or the continual dominance of one emotion
indicates imbalance in the body's energy system.
|
|
The
basic nature of the yin meridians is one of acceptance. The yin organs
store energy and emotions. By releasing the held energy the emotions may
be released as well. |
 |
Our separation from
the mother began with our first breath and our return to the mother will
be heralded by our last.
The
breath is the secret key to unlock energy and emotions from the yin
organs. Breathe into the emptiness.
