The Energetic body

Nervous System

The nervous system is made up of all the nerve cells in your body. It is through the nervous system that we communicate with the outside world and, at the same time, all mechanisms inside our body are controlled. The nervous system takes in information through our senses, processes the information and triggers reactions, such as making your muscles move or causing you to feel pain.

There are many billions of nerve cells, also called neurons, in the nervous system. The brain alone has about 100 billion neurons in it. Each neuron has a cell body and various extensions. The shorter extensions (called dendrites) act like antennae: they receive signals from, for example, other neurons and pass them on to the cell body. The signals are then passed on via a long extension (the axon), which can be up to a meter long.

Cranial Nerves

 The cranial nerves are 12 pairs of nerves that can be seen on the ventral (bottom) surface of the brain. Some of these nerves bring information from the sense organs to the brain; other cranial nerves control muscles; other cranial nerves are connected to glands or internal organs such as the heart and lungs.  The Vagus & Optic cranial nerves are of extreme importance to energy cultivators.

Dantain

Picture
A Dantian (Chinese: 丹田, pinyin: dāntián, Wade-Giles: tan-t’ien‚ pronunciation) is a centre of Chi (life energy). The Dantian are central points of reference in Chi Gong, Neigong, Taoyin (Daoist Yoga), internal martial arts and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Depending on the art and the focus of the specific exercise, breathing techniques and/or awareness are directed to one of the Dantian. There are three main Dantian: the lower Dantian, the middle Dantian and the upper Dantian. They represent the bodies’ functional and energetic centres of gravity. The term Dantian used by itself usually refers to the lower Dantian, which is the main energy centre.


12 powers of man

These power are facilities which are given to us from birth, how we use them determines how flexible of each centre.  Through the use of Tai chi, Qi gong, Mediation, Word power these centres can be balanced and expanded.  Once these process begin an unfoldment we gain an opportunity to experience situation in the world to resolve these imbalances within each centre.  This can be a uncomfortable journey especially if done alone,   so joining a group of like minded people who are on the same journey maybe at different parts, however will allow for space  to grow supported.

Meridian network 

They are energy channels 'transporting' life energy (Chi/Qi) throughout the body.  The meridians themselves do not begin or end on the outside of the body, but originate deep within the organs and vital energetic centers (Chakras) of the body.  Studying the meridian pathways and Acupressure points for transmitting Chi healing energy is key to 'transformational' energy work. 
​

Meridian chart Understanding the five meridian elements, gives us tools for treating imbalances arising from a lack or surplus of certain channels...

 The Meridian Clock Each Meridian is most active at certain times of the day/night this  is helpful in pin-pointing deficient or over-active meridian function.
There are 14 Main Body Meridians

12 Paired Meridians and 2 Single Meridians
Meridian Pairs complement each other -

one Yin (energy flowing up ↑)

and the other

Yang (energy flowing down ↓)

12 primary paired meridians

6 yang and 6 yin – yin and yang forming a pair.

↓ Stomach meridian (yang)  - flows to the ↑ Spleen meridian (yin)

↑ Heart meridian (yin)  - flows to the ↓ Small Intestine meridian (yang)

↓ Bladder meridian (yang) -  flows to the ↑ Kidney meridian (yin)

 
↑ Pericardium meridian (yin)  - flows to ↓ Triple Warmer meridian (yang)

↓ Gallbladder meridian (yang) - flows to the ↑ Liver meridian (yin)

↑ Lung meridian (yin)  - flows to the ↓ Large Intestine meridian (yang)
​


And 2 single mid- meridians:

Governing Vessel – flows to the Conception Vessel

Eight extraordinary meridians

The eight extraordinary meridians are of pivotal importance in the study of Chi gong, Tai chi ch'uan and Chinese alchemy.  These eight extra meridians are different to the standard twelve organ meridians in that they are considered to be storage vessels or reservoirs of energy and are not associated directly with the Zang Fu, i.e. internal organs. These channels were first systematically referred to in the "Spiritual Axis".
​
The eight extraordinary vessels are (奇經八脈; qí jīng bā mài):
  1. Conception Vessel (Ren Mai) - 任脈 [rèn mài]
  2. Governing Vessel (Du Mai) - 督脈 [dū mài]
  3. Penetrating Vessel (Chong Mai) - 衝脈 [chōng mài]
  4. Girdle Vessel (Dai Mai) - 帶脈 [dài mài]
  5. Yin linking vessel (Yin Wei Mai) - 陰維脈 [yīn wéi mài]
  6. Yang linking vessel (Yang Wei Mai) - 陽維脈 [yáng wéi mài]
  7. Yin Heel Vessel (Yin Qiao Mai) - 陰蹻脈 [yīn qiāo mài]
  8. Yang Heel Vessel (Yang Qiao Mai) - 陽蹻脈 [yáng qiāo mài]

Chakra system

Picture
Each energetic centre has a connection the endocrine gland These centres are well know and are now the standard formula for spiritual alchemy, however the whole story hasn't been told linking the 7 chakras and 12 powers you get a better understanding on the fields that surround you.  This leads to a better communication with the world around and within.   These teaching are expanding and explained during the practice of Chi gong in class.
