Oxygen
The Lunar Year of the Metal Ox began February 12. In Chinese medicine, metal rules the lungs, an organ under attack by respiratory viruses like COVID. The lungs are also seen as a seat of grief, something many of us have been faced with this last year.
Breath exercises, like Diaphramatic breathing, are a simple way to strengthen your lungs.
Be “strong like Ox” with BELLY BREATH
1. Sit cross-leg or lie down and relax shoulders
2. It helps to place one hand on the belly, the other on the chest.
3. Inhale through your nose 2 to 4 seconds, feeling your belly expand.
4. Breathe out 2 to 4 seconds, lips pursed as though blowing out candles and push down slightly on your abdomen as it empties.
5. Gradually increase the out-breath to a count of 5, then 6.
Eventually, as you come into your body, grounded by the breath, you might be aware of fears, grief, and other difficult feelings you are holding. Try pinpointing the area where you hold anxiety for example, like your heart or stomach. Breath deeply into those areas and feel the emotion residing there, cradling the feeling in kindness, and breath out, letting it all go. If it becomes a thought process or story, just keep returning to the body, picturing it as a cradle of loving kindness.
Regular ACUPUNCTURE can help release negative emotions and strengthen the lungs as well, increasing immunity and promoting your body’s natural healing abilities. Many people find it puts them in a meditative place, helping them to let go of fears. If you can’t find that cradle of loving kindness in your body yet, come on in. We got you!
