Water Element Guided meditation when kidney qi is weak | Guided meditation for Kidney Strength.

Water Element & Chinese Medicine
Water is yin energy, the color is black, and the effect is cold. Meridians are Kidney and Bladder. 

The function of the Kidney:
Kidney Yin & Kidney Yang are the roots of the genes – if one is deficient, the other one will be too; Kidney stores essence & governs birth, growth, reproduction & development; They produce marrow, fill up the brain & control bones; They govern water; They control the reception of Qi from the lung; They open into the ears; They manifest in the hair; They control the lower orifices (spermatic duct, urethra & anus) opening & closing function;
They house willpower & motivation; The gate of vitality (called Ming Men) provides heat for all body functions, warms the lower burner, stomach & spleen to aid digestion; harmonizes sexual function; supports all other organs; warms the kidney Yang & nourishes kidney Yin.

When Water is in balance
We have a solid genetic background and cultural heritage and benefit from a solid support system of friends, peers, family, and community. Life comes easy to us and we are calm without the need to fight.
Water energy is a strong generative force centered in the lower belly. When the Kidney Qi is strong, a person is fearless, determined, and can endure many hardships in pursuit of their goals with ease and gentleness. Persevering by willpower is characteristic of those with strong Kidney Qi, as is longevity, often signified by large, elongated ear lobes, like those of the Buddha.

Positive emotions are: gentle, soft, prudent, limitless, encompassing, embracing, calm, determined, creative, and sensual.

When Water is out of balance
We are in the survival mode of “fight or flight”. We feel so weak that even when we fight we know we are going to lose. When the Kidney Qi is weak, there can be problems with water metabolism, urination, fertility, or sexuality. This person could be anxious, fearful, withdrawn, and in more severe cases, phobic with extreme activation of adrenaline and stress hormones and a tendency for fits of despair, anger, depression, and powerlessness. When the Kidney Qi starts to weaken, dark circles or pouches appear under the eyes, weakness in the legs and knees, lower back pain, fatigue, bad teeth, loss of hearing, frequent urination, incontinence, osteoporosis, cold extremities, declining sexual vigor, kidney stones, and baldness. Kidney Qi declines with aging. There may be diminished hearing or ringing in the ears. In menopause, the Kidney Yin declines, which is associated with classic signs of heat and dryness – hot flashes, night sweats, dry skin, and mucous membranes.

Negative emotions are: impulsive, fearful, cold, rough, slippery, small, scattered, timid, absent, speedy, stagnant, sterile, paranoid.

Common symptoms – Forgetfulness, lack of drive, lack of initiative, inability to pursue goals, addictive patterns, depression, fear, sleep disturbances, sexual disturbances, and over-controlling.

Possible causes – Overwork, excessive physical activity, too much adrenal stimulation (i.e. caffeine), chronic disease, addictive behavior, chronic fear & anxiety, shock, trauma, guilt, multiple births, excess blood loss in menstruation, lack of discipline & encouragement in childhood.

When our energy levels are weak we cannot keep the Zhi alive in us.

FACE THE FEAR – Make friends with your fears – sit with them, use internal alchemy to be sensitive, pause, and allow the fears to simply just ‘be’ without activating adrenal glands or a fight/flight response. Sit next to your fears and in small doses make changes that can overcome these fears.
LIFESTYLE – Nourishing food, rest, meditation, natural beauty.
PHYSICAL EXERCISE – Calm exercise which strengthens the spinal column and aligns posture.
THOUGHTS – Avoid excessive thinking, working & craving, and make time and space each day to do nothing.
WATER – Spend time in the water, watch how water moves, drink lots of water, keep a bowl of water in your house, and watch rivers, oceans, ponds, and seas.
FOOT MASSAGE – Massage K1 to stimulate the Zhi
MEDITATION – Listen to this meditation regularly.
