Twelve Primary Channels The Twelve Meridians Scan through this whole page first. Click an organ to read everything about that organ. An ancient Chinese adage says: 'A tree grows from the roots.' The Five Elemental Energies and their cycles provide a practical working model through which the interrelationships between the human body and the natural environment may be understood and controlled. The traditional Chinese view of human physiology differs significantly from the Western view in that the Chinese have always focused attention on the function rather than the form of the vital organs. Over the ages, Chinese physicians discovered two fundamental principles which govern the vital organs and regulate their functional relationships. In the Chinese system, everything ultimately boils down to energy, a view which modern Western physics is beginning to verify. The below chart illustrates where the meridians begin and end on the surface of the body, not showing the exact paths they take.

| ClassicalChineseMedicine.org Reflecting Presence Blog | J. Tamar StoneJ. Tamar Stone “A kiss. You call that a kiss?” Jane Fonda says seductively to her sexy co-star Robert Redford in the classic film Barefoot in the Park. Standing coquettishly in his nightshirt outside the honeymoon suite of their Plaza Hotel room, six days and nights after they took their vows. Redford gives her a peck on the lips and heads for the elevator – dressed and ready to get back to work. Beginning to unbutton the nightshirt clinging to her body from the top down, she impishly responds to him, “If you call that a kiss, don’t bother coming home tonight” and, ”If you don’t get back here right now and give me a real kiss I am going to…” This scene is engrained so deeply in my soul and psyche.

Why is it that, according to Cane, 90% of people remember their first kiss. Yet, interestingly enough, the kiss I remember most of all was that of a stranger.
Simple Productivity | Zen Habits Jack Schwarz Favorite Song Impossible Dream - Aletheia Psycho-Physical Foundation - holisticu.org - Home of the Aletheia H.E.A.R.T. Institute (One of Jack's favorite songs and story) To dream the impossible dream, to fight the unbeatable foe, to bear with unbearable sorrow, to run where the brave dare not go. To right the unrightable wrong, to love pure and chaste from afar; to try when your arms are too weary, to reach the unreachable star. This is my quest, to follow that star -- no matter how hopeless, no matter how far. To fight for the right, without question or pause, to be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause. And I know, if I'll only be true to this glorious quest that my heart will be peaceful and calm, when I'm laid to my rest. And the world will be better for this; that one man scorned and covered with scars, still strove with his last ounce of courage. to reach the unreachable stars. From Man of La Mancha
