We all probably know someone who has dealt with a life challenging condition
like breast cancer. How can we prevent it? The Healing Tao offers excellent
ways to increase our healing power such as the Inner Smile and the Healing Love
practices. Unconditional love powerfully transforms our lives and ripples out
to the world around us. Allowing soulful relationships to
warm your heart plays the biggest role in longevity.
This is a gentle reminder to take the time to nurture yourself on all levels,
to bring more joy into your life, and prevent possible pain and suffering arising
from negligence.
Before beginning your sexual energy practice, or any practice for that matter,
affirm your highest purpose for cultivating sexual energy in the personal star
above your crown. If your motivation is pure, upholding wisdom, love and compassion,
personally and globally, the transformation power is amplified. This will noticeably
raise your internal power.
Sexual energy amplifies our emotional state, so it is very important to transform
any excessive "negative" emotions into virtues. The breasts are like
melting pots for the virtue energies of the organs. To bring out the healing
qualities of the vital organs’ energy, their character can be brought
out in this massage technique. Expand the heart's love in the breasts with warm
outward spiralling motions. When you cup the breasts and shake them, you can
vibrate the spleen's openness and nurturing qualities in. Breathe the lung's
strength into the breasts by cupping the breasts and moving them in big circles.
Stroke the gentleness of the kidneys around the base of the breasts, ribcage
and sternum. Generate the kindness of the liver with rolling, kneading circles
around the breasts. Massage around the breasts, circling up the inside and down
the outside, like a fountain rising from the Jade Fountain and the earth. Then
reverse the direction, stroking down the inside, like a shower of light from
the heavens. Smile and draw down the heavenly energy with an ethereal massage,
barely touching the skin. Mix the virtues into compassion. Rest hands over the
breasts and radiate love, peace and acceptance to your self.
Breast massage is a pleasurable way to improve chi circulation and break up
stagnation, which can form into cancer. Using massage oil, with aromatic essential
oils for promoting hormonal balance, makes it more attractive to practice regularly.
Clary Sage, Geranium, Fennel and Ylang Ylang, are oils that nurture the breasts
and sexual energy specifically. Regular practice is
a way of early detection. Massage makes the body feel loved, which releases
the growth and anti-aging hormones.
Since stagnation of the liver can rise up and settle in the breasts, Medical
Chi Kung uses the liver sound during the breast massage. Cradling the breasts
while singing "SHANG," they resonate with loving-kindness. Swing with
the tone F, the archetypal tone for the heart chakra.
Musical tones make healthy cells radiant. Unstable cancer cells can explode
with sound frequencies. The consciousness in the human voice can powerfully
disorganize a cancer cell in about 9 minutes, (see research by Fabien Maman).
When we allow the chi to move us, a natural grace comes out. Play music, which
moves you and allow your creative juices to flow! Smile and breathe into it.
Let every cell vibrate and dance with joy! High quality music can uplift the
soul and channel sexual energy into liberating experiences.
Tight bras can restrict the circulation in the breast area, compress the tissues,
and are linked with breast cancer. I suggest to women to remove the under wires
in bras. Just make a small hole on the side and pull the wire out. Metal also
disturbs the chi flow.
The jade egg exercise, with a real or imaginary weight, can be beneficial for
activating strong and vital hormones. One playful way of using the jade egg
is the Tug of Love. Pull up with the strength of the Thrusting channels, organs
and glands, while pulling the egg's string in different directions. Deeply penetrate
the rejuvenating sexual energy by humming a warm, smiling, merging "MMM"
-- the sound we make when we taste something delicious! Be rhythmical and playful.
Walking meditation can be another way of cultivating sexual energy. The Wheel
of Fire and Water is a slow walking meditation that balances the sexual energy
with the love energy of the heart. Lifting the foot, raise the sexual water
up to the heart, allowing passion to fuel compassion in the heart. Chant "CHOO"
with the inhalation, like drawing up a straw. Automatically pump up the sexual
waters by turning Water Wheels (down the front and up the back) in the ovaries,
kidneys and breasts (upper kidneys). Carrying the foot, heart's flower blossoms.
Placing the foot, love flows into action. Bring the fire down to warm the stove
in the lower Tan Tien. Blow down the fire with "HAW". Its warm wind
will accelerate the whirling motion of the Water Wheels like fans or windmills.
The arms indicate this movement; scooping up the back, palms facing up, opening
through the chest, and coming down the front, palms facing down. Development
of compassion is our best protection and a gift to the universe. This balancing
practice calms the "False Fire" of overdoing in the heart. As we “chill”
we can perceive our feelings more clearly. It burns up "Heavy Water"
of sluggish stagnation in the lower body and kindles initiative.
Ovarian Compression builds warm potency and stokes the digestive fire. The increased
chi pressure prevents sluggish elimination, which is a major cause of ill health.
Filling the kidneys with earth energy during menstruation feels supportive and
eases lower back discomfort. The overflow of kidney energy will flow into the
bones. Bone Breathing activates the production of red and white blood cells
and helps prevent osteoporosis. Store the sexual energy in the bones and build
a reserve of energy. Explore different positions, which facilitate the channelling
of cosmic forces into the bones. Be still and absorb them. Find stability and
security in your bone structure. If Healing Love practice gets you too energized
to fall asleep, Bone Breathing will settle you down.
Circulating steamy sexual energy in the Microcosmic Orbit and other energy channels
powerfully cultivates the life body and the psychic centers. It awakens the
power of spiritual perception. It creates a sense of wholeness. When we feel
content internally we are less prone to hunger for external stimulation, which
can be harmful for our body-minds.
How can our diet support our practice? A healthy, balanced diet prevents excess
toxins, fat and estrogen from building up. Meat and dairy products can have
steroids, which can throw off the hormones. It is quite an art to balance the
cleansing and tonifying aspects of food.
Beauty energizes us. Allow the beauty of nature to caress and nurture your senses.
Appreciate your unique beauty, and it will glow and grow from within.
Coming to peace with our self emotionally, mentally and spiritually is the key
for prevention and health enhancement. This natural self-confidence will reverberate
into more harmonious relationships.
Let us support and encourage each other to be creative with our Healing Love
practice! Explore the practices without fascinated attachment, by witnessing
with a neutral center amidst their dynamic dance. Enjoy these expressions of
love and care for our selves.
