Our Triple Warmer Meridian
Our Triple Warmer Meridian also known as ‘San Jiao’ or our ‘Triple Elixir Meridian’ is our Meridian that controls our fight, flight, freeze response.
It is linked to our adrenals, so anytime we are running on anything beyond our actual reserves we will be taxing this energy system.
When out of balance our immune system can be impacted and our ability to tolerate and manage stress is compromised.
It is not linked to a specific organ but rather gets its name from our three burners, our thorax, abdomen and pelvis.
Also linked with our hypothalamus, the part of our brain that governs appetite, digestion and regulating our body temperature.
Keeping our stress levels low and eating a nutrient rich diet are both supportive ways to keep this Meridian happy.
Inversions are also a really nice way to bring the energy back into the abdomen and pelvis area, plus all the added lymphatic benefits for our immune system.
I invite you to do ‘legs up the wall’ pose today ‘Viparita Karani’ —— this is a beautiful one to do before bed to calm the nervous system.
