Immortal Abdominal Kneading: 13-Minute Wakeup Routine for Vitality

Importance of the Abdomen: Key to Health and Vitality

The abdomen is not just the core of the body, but also the foundation of life energy. It is where our vital force originates, with two primary sources:

1. Innate Energy: Located in the lower Dantian, this energy flows through the body’s meridians and controls growth, development, reproduction, and the functions of internal organs.

2. Acquired Energy: Derived from the spleen and stomach, this energy is produced by absorbing nutrients from food, fueling all bodily activities.

Together, these energies sustain life, making the health of the abdomen crucial for longevity and vitality. Any imbalance in this area can directly impact health, causing issues such as disease, fatigue, or digestive problems.

The Physical Role of the Abdomen

The abdomen houses many vital organs, including the liver, spleen, gallbladder, stomach, intestines, kidneys, bladder, uterus, and ovaries. When the abdomen is clear and the meridians are unobstructed, these organs function optimally. However, if the abdomen is overloaded with fat and waste, blood circulation becomes impaired, leading to blockages in the meridians and the onset of various health issues.

Meridians and Abdominal Acupoints

Every organ has a Front-mu point on the abdomen, which is directly connected to the corresponding internal organ. Massaging these points can enhance the function of the organs. For example:

• Tianshu points: Located on both sides of the navel, these are the Front-mu points of the large intestine. Massaging them promotes peristalsis and relieves constipation.

• Guanyuan point: The Front-mu point of the small intestine. Massaging it increases the temperature of the small intestine, improving food fermentation, nutrient absorption, and alleviating allergies.

The Abdomen as the “Second Brain”

Interestingly, the abdomen contains a vast number of nerve cells, equivalent to those found in the brain, and is often referred to as the “second brain.” These nerves control the functions of all abdominal organs. Proper blood circulation ensures that nerve functions are normal, while poor circulation leads to dysfunction and potential illness.

Conclusion

To achieve long-term health, vitality, and disease prevention, it is essential to maintain a clean and well-circulating abdomen. This can be achieved through simple yet effective practices like abdominal massage.

Maintenance Ideas for a Healthy Abdomen

Chinese traditional practices have long recognized the importance of abdominal health. After years of experience, it has been found that abdominal kneading is one of the most effective methods for maintaining a healthy abdomen. This technique directly stimulates the abdominal organs and is easy to practice, even for individuals in their 80s.

Abdominal kneading involves gently massaging the abdomen with your hands to improve blood circulation, stimulate organ function, and promote the flow of energy. This helps to eliminate waste, metabolize fat, and support overall abdominal health.

Signs of a Healthy Abdomen

A healthy abdomen should be:

• Smooth

• Flat

• Warm

• Soft

• Elastic

These qualities indicate that the abdomen is clean, the meridians are unobstructed, and the organs are functioning well. If your abdomen does not meet these standards or feels enlarged, hard, or full of waste, it may benefit from the practices taught in this course.
