Transcript
Thank you for being here and for taking time just for yourself.
For today's practice I suggest you lie down.
Relax and enjoy the time for yourself.
Lie relaxed on your back,
Your arms by your side with palms facing upwards.
If you prefer you can pull up your legs.
In Qigong we say that we lie down like a bow,
Like an arrow bow without the bowstring.
Totally relaxed.
Put your tongue behind your upper front teeth.
Relax your tongue and smile gently.
Now breathe into your belly.
Take a deep breath in and out again.
Think calm when breathing in and relaxed when breathing out.
Breathe in,
Calm and out again.
Relaxed.
Breathe in and out again.
Now turn your attention to your body.
Are you tense anywhere?
If so breathe into this area and try to let go when breathing out.
Let's go on a journey through your body.
First focus on your head.
Is there any tension anywhere?
If so breathe in and let go.
Relax your face.
Let the tension go.
Relax your neck muscles.
Let it go.
Remind yourself that you have all the time in the world right now.
Nowhere to go,
Nothing to do right now.
Just enjoy and relax.
Now focus on your back.
Breathe in and let go.
Relax your arms.
Relax your wrists and your fingers.
Now relax your legs and relax your feet.
Take an even deeper breath in and let all the tension go when breathing out slowly.
In today's practice we will focus on regulating your chi.
Chi could be described as your vital energy,
The life force that underlies our bodies,
Minds,
Hearts and spirits.
Chi protects,
Warms and cools the body.
It holds the organs in place,
Keeps blood in the vessels and governs fluids.
It also transforms food and air into energy and blood and regulates all movement through the energy pathways of our body.
The pathways are also known as meridians.
We have several meridians that flow through our body.
For now we'll focus on the lung and large intestine meridians.
Both meridians are connected.
The lung is the prime minister and is responsible for management and regulation.
It manages the energy and the respiration.
If we're sad over a longer period of time the lung meridian can get affected.
The large intestine is the master of transport.
It triggers change and transformation within the body.
Let's start now to regulate the flow of those two meridians.
First we'll start with a self massage of the lung meridian.
To start rub your hands together gently until they're warm.
Now with your right hand start to massage your left arm.
Start by touching the inner side of your thumb and stroke it with the palm of your right hand and move up your forearm,
Upper arm and move to your lung.
Then back down again through your upper arm,
Forearm and over the inside of your thumb.
Repeat this again by touching the inside of your thumb,
Moving up your forearm,
Upper arm and into your lungs.
Out again through your upper arm,
Forearm and out again through the inside of your thumb.
Now do the same with your left hand on your right arm.
Start by touching the inside of your right thumb and stroke it with the palm of your left hand and go up your forearm,
Upper arm and move to your lung.
Then back down again through your upper arm,
Forearm and over the inside of your thumb.
Repeat this once again by touching the inside of your thumb,
Moving up your forearm,
Upper arm and into your lung.
Then down again,
Down your upper arm,
Forearm and out again at the inside of your thumb.
Now let's go through the lung meridian with our imagination and by breathing only.
First breathe into your thumbs,
Up your forearms,
Upper arms and into your lungs.
Then breathe out again and in your imagination move down your upper arms,
Forearms and out on the inside of your thumbs.
Again breathe in your thumbs,
Up your forearms,
Upper arms and into your lungs.
Breathe out and move down your upper arms,
Forearms and out on the inside of your thumbs.
Repeat this for a couple of times.
Now let's focus on the large intestine meridian.
Let's start with a massage.
With your right hand start massaging your left arm.
Start by touching the upper side of your index finger and touch it with the palm of your right hand and move up your forearm,
Upper arm and move to your lung.
Then back down again through your upper arm,
Forearm and over your index finger.
Repeat by touching the top of your index finger,
Moving up your forearm,
Upper arm and into your lung and out again through your upper arm,
Forearm and moving out on top of your index finger.
Now do the same with your left hand on your right arm.
Start by touching the upper side of your right index finger and stroke it with the palm of your left hand.
Then move up through your forearm,
Upper arm and move to your lung.
Then back down again through your upper arm,
Forearm and over your index finger.
Repeat once again by touching your index finger,
Moving up your forearm,
Upper arm and into your lung and out again by touching your upper arm,
Forearm and the top of your index finger.
Now let's go through the large intestine meridian with our breath and imagination.
Breathe in to your index fingers,
Up your forearms,
Upper arms and into your lungs.
Breathe out again through your upper arms,
Forearms and through the top of your index fingers.
Do it again.
Breathe into your index fingers,
Up your forearm,
Upper arm and into your lungs and down again through the upper arms,
Forearms and out again on top of your index fingers.
Do this for a couple of times.
Breathing in through the index finger and breathing out again through the index finger.
Now let's connect the two meridians by moving from index finger to the upper arm.
Now let's connect the two meridians by moving from index finger to the lung and down again and out through the thumb.
Rub your hands again and let's start with a massage.
Start with your left hand and touch your upper side of your right index finger.
Move up your forearm,
Upper arm and into your lung and then out again through the inside of your upper arm,
Forearm and out again through the inside of your thumb.
And again,
Touch the upper side of your index finger,
Move up your forearm,
Upper arm into your lung and then out again through the inside of your upper arm,
Forearm and out again through the inside of your thumb.
Now Now with the right arm touch your left index finger.
Move up your forearm,
Upper arm and into your lung and then out again through the inside of your upper arm,
Forearm and out again through the inside of your thumb.
Then touch the index finger again,
Move up your forearm,
Upper arm and into your lung.
Then out again through the inside of your upper arm,
Forearm and out again through the inside of your thumb.
Now let's do the same with just imagination and breathing.
Before we continue,
Breathe into your belly again and think calm when you breathe in and relaxed when you breathe out.
Calm and relaxed.
Now breathe in through the upper side of your index fingers,
Up your forearms,
Upper arms and into your lungs.
Then out again through the inside of your upper arms,
Forearms and out through the inside of your thumbs.
And again breathe in through the upper side of your index fingers,
Up your forearms,
Upper arms and into your lungs.
Then breathe out again through the inside of your upper arms,
Forearms and out through the inside of your thumbs.
Do this for a couple of times.
And again breathe in through the inside of your thumb.
Now imagine you are breathing in clean white air.
The air moves in through the upper sides of your index fingers,
Up your forearms,
Upper arms and into your lungs.
Then out again through your upper arms,
Forearms and out through the inside of your thumbs.
And the white air moves in again through the upper sides of your index fingers,
Up your forearms,
Upper arms and into your lungs.
And then out again through your upper arms,
Forearms and out through the inside of your thumbs.
Repeat this for a couple of times and let the clean white air move in and out of your body.

An excellent meditation. Good to focus on the lung and large intestine meridians at this time of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.
