The small intestine idian is responsible for the transport of food, absorption and digestion. Fear, anger, excitement and terror also have a direct effect on the interaction of small intestine and heart meridian.

Music: The music corresponds to the energy of the small intestine idian and facilitates the work with these meridians. The energy flows unhindered - blockages are released.

Jitsu/surplus: Excess energy is manifested through a stiff neck, which leads to dizziness and headaches and is often felt as pressure in the ear/head. Pains also appear in the lumbar region. The intestine reacts with hot inflammation and frequent bowel movements.

Kyo/Lack of energy: A lack of energy is manifested by poor digestion such as diarrhoea, inflammation, fatigue, exhaustion and pain in the sciatic region and the cervical vertebrae.

• Yang meridians run from the fingers to the face and from the face to the toes

General: Meridians (Traditional Chinese Medicine) are channels in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) where the life energy (Qi) flows. Each meridian is assigned to an organ or organ system. Acupuncture points are located on the meridians. Various meridian therapies are designed to help patients stay or become healthy. According to the TCM, health is associated with a free and sufficient flow of Qi in the meridians. If, for example, too little Qi flows, harmful Qi could enter the canal and damage the associated organ. (quoted from Wikipedia)
