Our Governing Meridian
Our Governing Meridian is our support system, our structure - it governs all the yang functions of our body. It runs from the base of our spine, up our backs over our heads and finishes at our upper lip.
When out of balance you may feel unable to stand up tall, you may feel burdened by your mind or by others or overly controlled and potentially self destructive.
When in balance we are able to stand tall in our power, we feel a healthy sense of self responsibility and integrity, our lives feel structured and aligned.
It is also associated with our largest organ in our body - our skin. With that in mind, a really nice way to look after this meridian is to really be conscious about what you are putting on your skin, what you are absorbing. Also making sure we are getting enough Vitamin D.
It is also closely linked to our Pineal Gland, so getting out in that early morning sun to activate this gland will help support our circadian rhythms (our sleep/wake cycles)
