Sixth Energy Center: Chi-chung (Opposite the Solar Plexus on the Spine)

The sixth energy center is located between the adrenal glands (T-

11), opposite the solar plexus on the spine.

The adrenals stimulate the inner part of the medulla in the brain,

which prepares the organism for fight or flight. The outer part, the

cortex, governs sodium balance and is involved in blood sugar level.

Those who have diabetes may find that concentration on this point

will help them to lower their blood sugar level. Allergy sufferers

may also find relief by concentrating here.

If you are weak or ill, you can concentrate on this point any time.

This practice can be very stimulating. Young people and those who

are stronger, should not focus on the Chi-chung in the evening

because it will keep them awake.
