00:00:06
Chinese doctors in villages were killed by
00:00:08
the population if their inhabitants fell ill.
00:00:12
Inhabitants in poor health were a sign that the
00:00:15
preventative doctor had not done their job well.
00:00:18
Their job was to prevent anyone from getting sick
00:00:21
by prescribing a good diet and appropriate movement.
00:00:25
In case of fragility or tiredness,
00:00:28
they also prescribed adequate herbal concoctions and intervened through
00:00:33
massages or acupuncture on the right energy points,
00:00:38
thus making energy flow where it is blocked,
00:00:41
bringing a flow of energy where it is missing.
00:00:44
Here are 3 acupuncture points that you can stimulate in case of stress.
00:00:50
Stress is particularly likely
00:00:52
to disrupt the chi,
00:00:54
the flow of vital energy,
00:00:56
and to cause many ailments such as headaches,
00:00:59
digestive problems,
00:01:02
Through the stimulation of acupuncture points,
00:01:04
we can promote the free circulation of qi,
00:01:08
thus improving health.
00:01:10
Kidney 27 Acupoint,
00:01:12
the acupressure acupuncture point kidney 27,
00:01:18
is located in the hollow under the clavicles on each side of the sternum.
00:01:23
If you tuck in your shoulders,
00:01:25
you will be able to feel and see its hollows more clearly.
00:01:29
The spacing depends on your morphology and is normally the same width as your jaw.
00:01:36
Use your two middle fingers and two index fingers to
00:01:39
stimulate them on both sides at the same time,
00:01:43
or use your thumb on one side and middle and index fingers on the other side.
00:01:50
that all fingers except the thumb,
00:01:52
have a negative or positive polarity.
00:01:55
Hence the importance of using either two fingers or the thumb to remain neutral.
00:02:01
So how to stimulate these points
00:02:03
either by maintaining pressure for 30 seconds to a minute.
00:02:08
This point can be sensitive,
00:02:10
especially the first few times.
00:02:11
It is normal to have a little pain.
00:02:14
If the pain is too strong,
00:02:17
The goal is not to hurt yourself but to
00:02:20
facilitate the circulation of energy in this kidney meridian
00:02:24
that begins under the sole of the foot
00:02:26
and ends in the collarbone.
00:02:29
You can also stimulate these points more actively.
00:02:34
the founder of Brain Gym,
00:02:36
recommends stimulating these kidney 27 points that he calls brain buttons
00:02:41
with the other hand on the belly.
00:02:43
And following a horizontal line with your eyes,
00:02:48
not with your head,
00:02:49
and then change hands.
00:02:51
This point strengthens the immune system
00:02:54
and is part of the so-called tonic points.
00:02:58
It is also very effective in calming states of psychological tension
00:03:03
such as anxiety,
00:03:06
It also has a positive effect on breathing.
00:03:09
By rolling your eyes from left to right,
00:03:12
you will develop clarity about yourself and the situation while relieving stress.
00:03:17
I recommend doing this movement 2 or 3 times a day for 30 seconds to a minute,
00:03:23
especially before any action that generates stress for you.
00:03:27
It will help you to keep the right tone,
00:03:31
and gain clarity to cope with any situation.
00:03:37
The acupressure point PC8 pericardium 8 called
00:03:42
lao Gong gives energy and life force.
00:03:46
It is located in the middle of the palm of your two
00:03:48
hands where the folded middle finger touches when it flexes on the palm
00:03:53
between the 2nd and 3rd metacarpals.
00:03:58
Massage on both sides with moderate gentle pressure
00:04:03
frequently and daily for 1 or 2 minutes.
00:04:07
You can also simply apply sustained pressure on this point with your thumb
00:04:12
or slow pressure with quick releases.
00:04:15
This acupressure is recommended at any time,
00:04:19
but especially in the morning when waking up and before work,
00:04:22
you can do one hand and then the other.
00:04:25
The third acupressure point,
00:04:28
this is the LI4,
00:04:30
large intestine 4 point
00:04:33
between the thumb and the forefinger.
00:04:36
A study by the Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2014
00:04:41
showed that 30% acupressure on this Hoku point
00:04:45
reduces upper body tension by 39%.
00:04:49
It is useful to reduce stress,
00:04:53
and tension in the neck and shoulders.
00:04:56
The hocku point is located on the back of the hand
00:04:59
in the hollow of the clamp between thumb and forefinger.
00:05:03
It is pressed with the thumb of the other
00:05:05
hand and in the direction of the index finger.
00:05:08
Hold the pressure
00:05:09
for 10 to 15 seconds
00:05:12
and adjust according to the state of the point.
00:05:15
When the point unblocks,
00:05:17
we feel an influx of chi like a damn giving way.
00:05:21
Wait until the floe calms down before removing the thumb.
00:05:26
If you need to stimulate the point for a longer period of time,
00:05:30
be careful not to tense your hands.
00:05:32
Adapt the pressure according to the pain.
00:05:35
Release slightly if the pain is too strong.
00:05:39
This point is fabulous because it is used to treat pain and tension,
00:05:43
physical and psychological,
00:05:45
which includes many problems headaches,
00:05:51
tense shoulders and back.
