Sun Meditation To Nourish Kidney Energy Reserves

This breath meditation is loosely based on the Qigong principle of intentionally directing energy in the body. We first cultivate somatic awareness of the sun’s energy on our skin, then breathe this energy in and let our kidneys catch hold of it. Appropriate for any season to restore vital energy, stored in the kidneys according to Traditional Chinese Medicine. Particularly supportive for adrenal or other fatigue, depletion, or depression. Great if you can practice this outside on a sunny day.

☀️ During cold Midwestern months meditating in a sun filled window is healing and a way to connect with nature inside. I feel Western medicine & theories lack in comparison to Eastern. Combining sunlight with qigong ideology seemed ideal, grateful to have found this. The pace and guidance allow room for individual adjustments. It has been difficult to notice my natural breathing without it changing as I notice it. While this practice uses the breath, it did not lead me to judge or hyperfocus on my breath, so I was able to utilize the energy of my breath and the sun’s to guide these energies to my kidneys with grace. Sitting, standing or remaining in 1 position for long has become a recent issue. Practices with movement have been more achievable, yet doing any for more than 10 min has been another new challenge. For someone who may be having similar shifts in ability or capacity like myself, this practice really helped to reconnect to a place within, that led to a genuine meditative and healing experience. 🙏🏼thank you!

Great meditation and I now feel reenergised ☀️ great for the winter months too. Thank you 🙏
