Qigong earth element
The earth element in qigong practice
Earth stands for the centre in the human body. The organs associated with the earth element are the stomach and the pancreas. They play a central role in the Qiflow of the body. All main (zang) organs depend on the open flow of the earth element. The qiflow circle is from the right side down to the lower dantian and on the left side up.
Right side down
Where the Qi flows down on the right side of the torso to the lower dantian the stomach is the gate to let the Qi flow down from the lungs,heart,pericardium. When the stomach is blocking the natural Qiflow is blocked.
Left side up
Same goes for the left side up where the Qi flows through the pancreas. When the pancreas in blocking it blocks the natural qiflow of the organs that ascend on the left side. The liver,intestines,triplewarmer,kidneys
