Exercise: The Main Central – Source of Life
Get into a comfortable position. The diagram shows the person seated, but I prefer to lie down and to support my arms (especially my right arm) with pillows and cushions. Hold each position for a few minutes each, or as long as you like! Some positions will feel so comfortable, you might spend an hour just in one hold! There aren’t any rules – just enjoy!
Maintain this position during the routine through L1 to L7.
L1 – Place Left Fingers between Eyebrows
The Vital Force of Total Being. Revitalises the deep energy circulation, improves memory, dissipates senility, harmonises the pituitary gland and the pineal gland, controls blood pressure
L2 – Place Left Fingers on Tip of Nose
Revitalises superficial body energy circulation,
releases tension in the pelvic girdle and reproductive organs
L3 – Place Left Fingers on ‘Bump’ on Sternum
Revitalises Thyroid and Parathyroid; helps with facial muscular problems, helps prevent heart attacks, strokes, etc. Regulates metabolism and maintains mental balance. Helps us adapt to our surroundings and situations.
L4 – Place Left Fingers between Breasts on Sternum
Revitalises the immune system for the prevention of cancer, AIDS, etc. Assists in child growth and mental development. Governs reproduction, generative and regenerative functions. Relieves nausea and anxiety. Assists with breathing.
L5 – Place Left Fingers at Base of Sternum
The Controller of Human Destiny. Revitalises the energy path of the spleen and the adrenals, assists in the secretion of digestive juices and hormones. Gateway to the solar energy system revitalising the nervous system. Prevents diabetes.
L6 – Place Left Fingers about an Inch above the Belly Button
Revitalises abdominal muscle tone and intestinal function.
L7 – Place Left Fingers on Pubic Bone
Revitalises the descending energy (down the front).
Helps strengthen the spine. (Hold L7 with R1 and then with R2)
R2 – Right Hand moves from Top of Head to Base of Spine (Coccyx). Revitalises the ascending energy (up the back), helps circulation in the legs and feet, helps cold and clammy hands and feet. Alleviates menstrual cramps. (Hold R2 with L7)
Thanks for your prompt response. But what I mean is initially when right hand is at R1, left hand goes through L1 to L7. But when right hand is at the base of the spine (R2), does the left hand stay at L7? Or is the R2 done without any corresponding left hand position, or does one move left hand successively from L1 through L7? Many thanks for your clarificaion!
Yes, you’ve got it. Right hand remains at the top of the head from L1 to L7. Then the right hand moves to the base of the spine, and left hand stays on L7! This particular hold is great for period pains (works very quickly to release discomfort, for cold feet – it basically moves the energy down the legs. Remember that you can do the whole exercise, or you can focus in on one hold. Like R1 with L1 is one hold, then R1 with L2 is another hold and so on.
Hello,
The Alice Burmeister book shows fewer points for the main central. [Touch of Healing]
i am interested to find out why.
Thank you,
