Health Meditation – Part 4 of 6

Master Jenny T. Liu, M.A.

The health meditation is
used to create chi flow to activate all of the body’s energy meridians. Meridians are the
paths through which your body’s chi travels. Any time chi is stuck, your body reacts with symptoms to alert you to potential problems. If attention is not given to release the stagnant chi in your body, over time, ailments form.
Health meditation (also called moving meditation), involves cultivating your physical chi and using it to move stagnant chi or release negative chi out of your body. The breathing is similar to the tranquility meditation, but with health meditation you use your mind to direct your breath, guiding chi to problem areas.
Start by slowing your breathing down. Start your visualization by taking a breath and inhaling golden light energy through your nose. Send this chi down the yang meridian (front of your body) through the chakras, all the way to your dan tien and the vitality point. When it reaches this point, pull up on the perineum. Let the blood and oxygen gather and become firm, strong and vital in this area, visualizing it as a red ball of light.
Continue your deep breathing and push your chi past your lower dan tien
and bring it up along your tail bone, through the kidney, through the
center back, up to the base of the neck, to the |
lower brain, to the pituitary gland and through to your third eye where you let it glow, finally exhaling through your nose. This route is the path of self-cultivation. It activates the yin and yang meridians along the front and back of your body.
The next step is to hold and expand chi in your problem areas. If you experience lower back pain, visualize dark energy in that area representing the ailment or stagnant chi. Next, visualize a globe of golden light as you inhale and guide the golden orb to your kidney/lower back area. Let the energy glow in that area and as the light energy glows, it dissolves the dark, stagnant energy. Guide that energy of the dissolved ailment away and out of your body with your exhale. Repeat this several times until you no longer see the dark energy.
This meditation is only part of your whole healing process. The results depend on the level of your meditation discipline, your karma and the seriousness of the ailment. A common disease will go more easily with health meditation, but a serious disease, such as a tumor, is an accumulation of negative energies and may be more resistant. In these cases, though health meditation alone may not completely eradicate the ailment, it will definitely relieve stress and facilitate healing as part of your holistic treatment.
