This qi gong color visualization helps you to strengthen the energy of the pericardium and heart. The pericardium energy is associated spiritually with our intimate relationships.
Thus, when our pericardium energy is low, we find ourselves more challenged to engage intimate relationships positively. For example, we might be more apt to engage in arguments or refrain from exhibiting loving actions that show that extra level of thoughtfulness.
The heart energy is associated more directly with our spirit or soul energy. When this energy is low, we might find it difficult to be in touch with our life purpose in terms of a spiritual direction. We also might find it challenging to engage social interactions which require spirit/heart energy.
As you perform this meditation, take a moment to let go of any obstacles to nurturing your pericardium and heart energies.
Qi Gong Heart Visualization and Breath Work
Take a moment to sit quietly off the edge of your chair.
Allow your spine to relax and slump slightly.
Tilt your pelvis slightly up and back to facilitate further slumping of your spine.
Exhale for a long, slow count of five.
As you exhale, visualize realizing gray energy from the center of your chest.
Inhale for a long slow count of nine. Visualize breathing in deep red and bright red colors into the heart center.
Continue this pattern of exhaling and inhaling with visualization for two more cycles.
Place your hands palm over palm over the heart center.
Feel the warmth of your hands permeate the heart center. Imagine the heart center glowing red and vibrant.
Place your hands, palm over palm, facing inward on the lower abdomen below the belly button.
Breathe deeply and slowly as you feel the warmth of your hands, vital energy flooding the lower abdomen and flowing into the left and right kidney.
Relax and feel prepared for whatever lies ahead, knowing that your heart is open and vibrant.
