What is Window of the Sky?

I realize that you may be wondering why I named my blog Window of the Sky. So, I thought I would give you a little history of the meaning behind "Windows of the Sky", aka.. "Window of Heaven".

The "Windows of the Sky" are points that are used for several reasons, but usually for local neck and or head pain. The History of these points come from the ancient text called the Nei Jing - Ling Shu, also known as the Spiritual Pivot which was first compiled around 400BC. These points are all located around the neck area or where the head connects to the lower body.
The Window of the Sky is seen as a way to connect our Spiritual Self to our Physical Self. Chronic tension can settle into the neck, and literally strangle your aliveness or spirit. The neck houses the thyroid gland, which balances your metabolism. When tension accumulates and becomes chronic, these points block your healing energy, which can cause chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and thyroid problems. The spiritual significance of the Windows of the Sky points is that they govern harmony between your mind and body. When healing energy flows through the Windows of the Sky, your spirit and aliveness makes you happy, inspired, satisfied, and fulfilled. If the energy cannot get through the neck into the higher centers of the brain, a person cannot fully experience spirituality, aliveness, and the wonders of life.

My blog is a way for me to connect my knowledge of Chinese Medicine with the rest of the world, therefore making the title "Window of the Sky" appropriate. I hope that my journey through this unique form of medicine will continue to inspire and enlighten.
