cycle of qi.

The Lung Meridian
The Lung Meridian is a yin meridian and controls breath and energy.

Breathing hence forms a bridge between body and mind.
Meridian Route
The lung meridian begins deep in the solar plexus region (middle burner) and descends to meet the
large intestine.
Winding up past the stomach, it crosses the diaphragm, divides, and enters the lungs. It then re-
unites, passes up the middle of the windpipe to the throat and divides again, surfacing in the hollowregion near the front of the shoulder (LU-1). From here it passes over the shoulder and down the frontof the arm along the outer border of the biceps muscle. It continues down the forearm to the wrist

The Kidney Meridian - Root of Life
Reservoir of Energy - the seat of courage and willpower
The kidney meridian is a yin meridian (flows upward), controls the growth and
development of bones and nourishes the marrow, which is the body's source of redand white blood cells. A weak kidney meridian is therefore a prime cause of anemiaand immune deficiency.
In traditional Chinese medicine, the spinal cord and the brain are forms of marrow, andtherefore poor memory, inability to think clearly, and backache are all regarded as
indicators of impaired kidney function and deficient kidney energy.

Kidney vitality is reflected externally by the condition of head and body hair and isassociated with the entrance hole of the ears. Tinnitus (ringing ears) is thus a sign of
kidney dysfunction.
The kidneys are the seat of courage and willpower, and therefore any impairment inkidney energy results in feelings of fear and paranoia. Intense fear can cause
involuntary urination, a phenomenon also known to Western medicine.
The kidneys are responsible for filtering waste metabolites from the blood and movingthem onwards to the bladder for excretion in urine. Along with the large intestine, the
kidneys control the balance of fluids in the body.
In addition, they regulate the body's acid-alkaline balance (pH) by selectively filtering
out or retaining various minerals.

The Pericardium Meridian -
Guardian of the Heart
The Pericardium Meridian (also called 'Heart Constrictor' or 'Circulation-Sex' Meridian) is a yinmeridian and is paired with the Triple Energizer Meridian (also known as the Triple Warmer/Burner
Meridian).
The Pericardium Meridian Flow
This begins in the middle of the chest at the pericardium. A branch descends internally through the
diaphragm to the upper, middle, and lower burners. From the starting point a branch of the mainchannel crosses the chest to emerge just outside the nipple. It then ascends on the surface around thefront of the armpit and flows down the arm, through the biceps muscle. At the elbow crease it passesjust to the inside of the biceps tendon, then down the middle of the front of the forearm, between the
heart and lung channels to the wrist. It crosses the middle of the palm to PC8 where it divides. Themain channel continues to the outer corner of the middle fingernail.
Known as the 'King's Bodyguard' (in this case... the 'king' is the heart), thepericardium is the heart's protector. It is regarded as a Fire-energy organ.
The pericardium provides the heart with physical protection, its energy also protects
the heart from damage and disruption by excessive emotional energies generated bythe other organs, such as anger from the liver, fear from the kidneys, and grief from
the lungs.
Extreme outbursts of the Seven Emotions are regarded as powerful disruptors ofenergy balance and major causes of disease. Without the pericardium to protect it, the
heart would be subject to damage from the strong fluctuations in energy caused byemotional ups and downs of the day.
