The Vision of the Dancing Meridians

Following my certification in Bioenergy Balancing and several years of private practice in Berkeley, California, I began to feel a need to share the basic process of dialogue with the body consciousness. I saw this as a way of empowering individuals in their own self care and also as a way to enhance and deepen the practice of complimentary healing practitioners.

When I began teaching 13 years ago, I included hands-on tracing of each meridian on the body in order of the circadian rhythms. The next piece was to add the positive aspect or theme of each meridian as we moved from one to another. We began learning the meridians in a joyful way, and it soon became a dance. We added music and found that learning pathways was easy and fun.

Here is the Meridian Dance and its positive messages:

Governing and Central Meridians:
I am on purpose as I align with Source Energy

Bladder and Kidney:
I am courageous, spontaneous and free

Circulation/Sex and Triple Warmer:
I bond easily and with discernment. As I trust myself, I trust Life

Gall Bladder and Liver:
I have a choice in the expression of my creative Spirit. I live my values

Lung and Large Intestine:
In the flow of giving and receiving, I release what no longer has heart or meaning

Stomach and Spleen/Pancreas:
As I nurture myself , I feel content and worthy of life and love

Heart and Small Intestine:
I am unconditionally loving, forgiving and accepting of the totality of my being

Governing and Central Meridians:
In gratitude, this exuberant energy overflows into and up through the Core and returns to nurture and heal the Earth

The first drawings were static poses that clearly showed the meridian lines but lacked the feeling of any movement of energy. I began my search for an artist that could interpret the flow in a dynamic way. At the close of one of my workshops in Helena, Montana, a student recommended Tim Holmes, a well known sculptor and artist . I was able to see him in his studio that weekend. I took my materials and told him about the workshops. I demonstrated the dance of the flow of energy through the meridians. He was open and was actually enthused to take on this project. A session was offered so he could directly experience the clearing and restoring of energy in the body.

The drawings found in this website are what emerged – perfect on the first rendering. Copies of these drawings have been an integral part of my weekend intensives ever since. In response to the requests of many of my students, I found a way to make them accessible in an art poster that would beam life force energy into their homes and offices.

The original drawings are now gracing the walls of the Rolling Mirror Massage and Wellness Studio in Whitefish, Montana
