This exercise targets the triple energizer meridian. According to TCM, the triple energizer meridian is divided into three sections in the body, the upper, middle and lower sections. The upper section refers to the upper body, includes the heart and lungs; the middle section includes the stomach and spleen; and the lower section includes the kidney, bladder, and intestines. This is a stretching exercise for the whole body, which is guided by a breathing technique to improve various internal organs. It also has a good effect on the musculoskeletal system of the back and corrects poor postures such as shoulder adduction and hump.

This exercise can significantly improve shoulder and neck pains, peri-arthritis of the shoulder, and muscle spasms.

It correlates with the pointing up triangle shape in the sacred geometry, which indicates bringing the universal energy down into the body to charge the body. How fascinating is it?

Steps:

1. Preparation: Stand with your feet slightly wider than your shoulders, your arms are relaxed and your body is upright. Start a pranayama breathing to slow down your mind, which is a diaphragm breathing technique.
2. Hold your breath and lift your hands inward with your fingertips facing each other.
3. Raise both of your hands with the palm facing up to your middle chest, and then turn your palms outwards.
4. With both palms facing upwards, place them above your shoulders like supporting a heavy object over your head, and loosen your elbows. At the same time, bend your knees, lower your gravity and relax your waist.
5. Push up with both hands as hard as you can with your fingertips facing each other. Look up as you are holding the sky.
6. Finish with both hands falling naturally to both sides, and exhale very slowly with your mouth.
7. Go back to the preparation step and adjust your breath.

Grounding combined with the pranayama breathing technique is a great way to reduce anxiety and panic attacks.

Key Points:

Breath: It is important to focus on your breath, your breathing style should be slow and even, and bring your attention to the area below the navel, which is the resting point of the Qi (energy) according to TCM. After you inhale, hold your breath below your navel, then start moving, and exhale when you have finished moving.

Posture: Your feet are slightly wider than your shoulders, so you can keep your strength steady. Calm your mind to relax, and eliminate unwanted thoughts with your breathing. When you lift your hands above the shoulders, imagine that you are holding a heavy object in your palm upwards, hold it with all your strength, and look at your fingers with your eyes. Hold your hands to the extreme. When your hands fall, relax and exhale slowly.

In general, one exercise can be repeated three times. If you want to strengthen your shoulders, cervical spine, etc., you can increase the number of exercises accordingly, usually no more than nine times each time. At the beginning and end of each exercise, you should be consciously aware of your breath and bring your focus to the area below your navel, adjust your breath and relax. This will help you maximize the health benefits of each exercise.
