Awesome

Energy warms all levels of our being;
Physically it warms the blood and provides the heat for digestive fire
Emotionally it supports us to reach out to others
Spiritually it helps us feel big and expansive.

In Chinese medicine we have a system called the Three Heater which refers to the functional activity of the organs in the upper, middl,e and lower parts of our body. As a collective these organs produce and distribute the energy, blood, and fluids of the body.

Each level of the body has a specific warming function. In the lower heater we have 'fire in the belly' which is like an open fire. If it's working well we have strong willpower, drive, vitality and sex energy.  The fire in the belly, warms the stomach (middle heater) providing the digestive fire to cook, transform, and transport the nutrients extracted from food . The upper heater fire warms and propel the blood and energy through the heart and lungs. 

Energy is the transformative force of nature. We see this in the relationship between the sun and earth. The energy of the sun shines down on the earth , warming the ground and expanding the seeds. The seeds push against the hard casing of the seed-shell, to transform into a sprout. The sprouted seed transforms into a shoot and takes off towards to the sun. The shoots of young growth are warmed and transformed by the sun. They mature to become the flowers and fruits. 

The potential for a fruit to develop is inside the seed. The seed transforms to become the apple. When we eat an apple,  the apple is digested and transformed to feed the tissues of the body. The foods we eat are transformed into flesh and muscles. The strength of our body is dependant on the transformative function of our energy.

Seed ideas  exist in our minds and fuel our thoughts, hopes and dreams. Gathering our ideas together helps transform and shape them into a vision. Our visions are like our goals which  guide and direct our action steps. Planning our action steps helps our visions and dreams transform into reality. 

Nourishing our energy nurtures our potential to transform our lives - all levels of body-mind.

Energy is the source of all movement in the universe. It moves the stars across the sky and the cycles of the seasons. Energy circulating in our bodies moves the blood through the vessels and activates the internal organ functions. It moves the four limbs and empowers us to walk, flex and shift positions. 

To maintain our health  we need to keep moving and adjusting to the changes of our lives. If we get stuck it indicates our energy is blocked.  Movement practices such as Qigong, Yoga, exercising in nature, swimming and walking all help to free the circulation in our body and being. This in turn helps us get into flow with the larger changes of the world around us.
