Spleen 4 -Prince's Grandson -An Acupuncture Point that embodies the richness of who we are

Have you ever been unable to feel gratitude for the abundance you have in your life even though you technically had what you needed (maybe even more than you needed?)

The name of this point reflects its use for accessing the abundance that exists in this very moment in our lives. I mean who is more “spoiled” than a grandchild and is there any grandchild richer than a Prince’s Grandchild?

In the treatment room, I often use this point when my patient is needs a reminder of the true abundance that exists in their life or if they are having trouble feeling gratitude. This point helps our body transport the nutrients that is already there to the places that need it most. This point brings a deep sense of spiritual calm and a feeling of trust that we are being taken care of by the universe.
