Balance Axis

Balance Axis

Liver and Lungs are energetically each on one side of the rib cage.

  • The Liver is in the Lower Burner on the left side.
  • Liver-Qi ascends.
  • Lung on the right side in the Upper Burner.
  • Lung-Qi descends.
  • Thanks to both, Qi flows harmoniously from the Upper to the Lower Burner and vice versa.

Left and right are according to the nature of The Five Elements

If the Qi of both organs flows freely there is harmony, it is possible to relax and develop.

  • Thanks to the Liver, Qi ascends to the head and the upper orifices.
  • The Lung allows Qi to descend to the Internal Organs, tendons and bones.
  • Both allow both Qi and Blood to flow freely and we can be in balance.
