Serpent (Snake) - Earth Element - Spleen Merdian (Sp1-20)
The Serpent stimulated the spleen by relieving the hip from blockades and opening the joints. The alignment of the upper body must be the same as the legs and connect the spleen meridian in one straight line. This alignment promotes the circulation of the Shen Zhu 身柱 (GV12) and makes it an effective posture for easing the effects of epilepsy and enhances the effects of the Tiger and Leopard postures. The Serpent is necessary for intellectual people since they tend to overuse the earth Qi and may have more problems with digestion, diarrhea, bloating and food allergies. Regular practicing of the Serpent may result in more joy in life.
