This point can bring immense motivation, focus, and energy. This point can be helpful when we have made a decision, and have a plan, but don’t have the energy or momentum to put those plans into action.
Location:
On the lateral aspect of the lower leg, 4 cun (the width of five fingers) superior to the prominence of the lateral malleolus, at the anterior border of the fibula.
note: cun = anatomical inches, an inch that is relative to your body
How to Stimulate:
You can stimulate this point by gently massaging it directly with your finger for 30 seconds or until you are inspired to take a deep breath.
Feel Amazing!
Love, Lance
