The abdomen known as the Dantian which has great significance in #TCM, #QiGong, #TaiQi, Yoga and many other therapeutic and exercise based systems. It is where our #lifeforce, our Jing (essence) originates from. The heaven level is represented by the turtle that has been highly revered in China for thousands of years. Turtle was chosen as a hologram of the human body. One such reason is that the plastron (underneath) of a turtle looks similar to a well-toned human abdomen ‘a six pack’. #healthylifestyle #healthylifestyle #chinisemedicine #wellness (at AOMA Graduate School of Integrative Medicine)
