Yes. Do I see thumbs up? Thumbs up? Okay, good. All right, let's move a little bit. Let's start with tapping.
So tapping now why do we tap? You know, anybody know acupuncture yet we have the fascia and the fascia holds tension. So we get shy from, like sometimes we take negative energy from the environment, and it it's reside under the skin and we say in our fascia, so when we tap, we activate like we did with the chest, we can do it with the whole body. So let's just do it all together. We're going to start with the chest again. Now you purge from the mouth yet and then move to the lower back and tap into the lower back.
Breathe into the lower back. You can breathe into your kidney. And this is this kidney is housing on the negative side housing fear and a positive side inner peace and tranquility. So not on the lower back, not the outside of the legs down and inside of the leg up. So knock on the outside, inside, and then we release the acquired cheat the energy we accumulated. Knock with both fist on the navel and activated digestive system breathe into the lower digestive system.
Deep breathing into lower abdomen, and then going to the right side, going upwards into the ribcage, say hi to the liver. And then go across Say hi to the stomach. And then greet also your spleen and stomach and go back down. So you greet your buddy Close your eyes and he's like, Hey, hey, how's it going? Yeah. And you smile.
Thank you. Yeah, so this is very important in Chinese medicine, the inner smile, let's go to the central channel. So we go up to the chest and down to the belly, digest these emotions in the heart and lead them downward. And that's open one hand and knock. Right here. This is also very powerful point called letting go.
This is the name of the point letting go and then we knock inside of the arm and outside of the arm, inside and outside, that's the other side. Letting Go point is right at the shoulder nests. The indentation right here, and then outside, inside, outside and then inside. So now let's inhale and release the energy from the neck into the chest. Go back down to the kidney, down to the legs and up the inside of the legs and into the stomach. So inhale exhale, down the neck, underneath the armpit.
That's exhalation now inhale into the kidney. Exhale down the legs, in held up the leg, the inside of the leg and center your energy and lower abdomen. So touch yourself touching in a loving way.

It's called enlightened tiger. enlightened. Are you ready? So we have just a little bit let's just finish with enlightened tiger. enlightened Tiger is really going into the future and the past and projecting good thoughts into the The future and the past. So if you think about a future, let's let's just kind of put our, our hands on the navel and close your eyes.
And think about what are you worried about? What is really worried about the future? Like, is it your health? Is it money? I mean, of course, right? Big, big two things, money and health.
But really choose one that you're you're of concern about you have. So we'll go enlightened Tiger is changing the future. Isn't that fun? Who wants to change the future? Well, you're always changing the future. You're always creating it we say in Qigong.
So think about what you really worry about. And also think about the past. What energy from the past you really don't like something that happened in your childhood or recently. Or something that really changed your, your energy today, something that you kind of carry with. So one thing in the future and one thing in the past and when we work with it with enlightened Tiger a tiger is the animal that blast through these negative emotions. So a warrior in the future.
You have it. Yes. Yes. past? Yes. Yes.

Can you change it? Then enlightened Tiger is a very flowing movement. After we open these channels, we just go and flow. We take the experience of the past into wisdom. What did we learn how we can connect with the past differently in a way that is constructive and actually strengthening? How we can strengthen ourselves through this past experience.
And what do you want to see in the future and this subject that you chose, and just visualize the future, as connected to the past and as the lesson of the past. If you can find a connection in how to the center and then exhale and hold both past and future with light and levity. So there's lightness in the arms. And there's a rooting through the legs. And the movement comes from the hips, from the kidney from your energy. inhale, and exhale.
