The whole truth about the famous Taoist practice “Inner Smile. Mantak chia inner smile

11.10.2019

A. Low quality energy is converted into high quality energy

In Taoism, we view negative emotions as low quality energy. Many people spend their lives in anger, sadness, depression, fear, anxiety, and other forms of negative energy. These energies are the causes of chronic disease and imperceptibly deplete our basic life force.

The Inner Smile is a sincere smile to all parts of the body, including all organs, glands and muscles, as well as the nervous system. It generates high quality energy that can heal, and over time it will be converted into even higher quality energy.

A sincere smile sends out the energy of love, which has the power to warm and heal. Just remember a time when you were upset or sick physically, and someone, perhaps even a stranger, genuinely smiled at you - and suddenly you feel better.

Norman Casips, managing editor of The Saturday Review, writes in Anatomy of a Disease that he cured himself of a rare connective tissue disease by watching old Marx Brothers films. One of my students cured herself of breast cancer by constantly practicing Inner Smile to the area that was sick.

In ancient China, Tao Masters discovered the power of smile energy. They practiced Inner Smile to ourselves. It moved the Qi energy and formed a high quality Qi flow, thus achieving health, happiness and longevity. Smile to oneself is like enjoying love, and love can regenerate and rejuvenate.

Inner Smile directs smiling energy to our organs and glands, which are so necessary for life. Ironically, although we often pay a lot of attention to our appearance, very few of us know what the internal organs and glands look like, where they are located and what their functions are. Moreover, we are insensitive to the subtle warnings they send us when we mistreat them by eating the wrong diets and living an unhealthy lifestyle. We are like a manager who never pays attention to his subordinates and is very surprised when something happens.

If we get to know our organs and glands, begin to understand what they do, and learn to hear their signals, they will reward us with a state of peace and vitality.

B. Beneficial or harmful emanations

Inner Smile most effective for neutralizing the effects of stress. In our modern society, we spend millions of dollars in order to find a way to relieve stress. Often these remedies provide only partial or temporary relief.

Inner Smile is closely related to the thymus and increases the functional activity of this gland. In the Taoist system, the thymus is the seat of the beautiful light, love, and life force of Di-energy.

When we are under the influence of emotional stress, the thymus gland is the first to be damaged. The book Your Body Doesn't Lie by Dr. John Dimopd presents a study that shows that the thymus plays the role of an ingenious regulator that directs the flow of vital and healing energies of the body.

Sir McFarlane Burner, an Australian Nobel laureate, formulated a theory of cancer in which he suggested that an increase in the functional activity of the thymus could lead to the possibility of avoiding cancer.

One type of cell that forms in the thymus is T cells. The function of T cells is to recognize abnormal cells and eliminate them. Of the million cells that are formed every day, some are abnormal. If T cells are not activated by thymus hormone, the abnormal cells will continue to multiply and develop into clinical cancer.

Therefore, the thymus plays a key role in preventing cancer throughout adulthood. In applied kinesiology, there is a way to determine whether the thymus gland is healthy or in a weakened state, for which Inner Smile is of great importance.

Try this test with a partner: touch the thymus area, which is located at the junction of the second rib with the breastbone below the throat. For the first time, your partner should not smile and should allow the facial muscles and corners of the mouth to drop. Let him extend one arm to the side, and at this time you try to put pressure on it from above to lower it down. Then try to do the same, but with your partner smiling, and see the difference. This shows that when you smile, you activate the thymus (Fig. VU and VU4).

Taoist legends say that when you smile, your organs release beautiful emanations that nourish your whole body. When you are irritated, afraid or under stress, they form harmful emanations that block energy channels, penetrate into the organs, causing loss of appetite, indigestion, increased blood pressure, increased heart rate, insomnia and negative emotions.

smiling to your organs, you make them enlarge, soft and moist, and thus more efficient. As a result, the liver, for example, has more room to store nutrients and detoxify harmful substances.

practice Inner Smile start with the eyes. They are connected to the autonomic nervous system, which regulates the function of organs and glands. The eyes are the first to receive emotional cues and sometimes cause the organs and glands to speed up their response to stress or danger (the “fight or flight” response) and relax when the critical situation has passed.

Ideally, the eyes maintain a calm and balanced level of response. Therefore, simply by relaxing your eyes, you can relax your entire body and thus free your energy to function.

C. The process of knowing through the Inner Smile

When you are stressed, emotional, or spend your life in a state of irritation or fear, your organs become blocked and your performance levels decrease. A large amount of energy is wasted, you become dull, lose vitality and mobility. It becomes difficult for you to study, to put forward new ideas, but if you try to learn something, the essence of the subject will not be remembered and you will not be able to delve into it. In the Tao system, we believe that our organs, senses, or body parts are involved in the process of learning.

When you smile at your organs, sensations and glands, you connect with them and can communicate well with them.

When you are in a state of stress or fear, all organs and sensations are blocked. For example, when you don't love someone, your body doesn't want to accept that person and thus doesn't want to experience their experience and accept their ideas.

1. The main sources of hearing energy

There is hardly a Russian school of female Taoist practices that would not offer its followers an “ancient Chinese practice” with a strange non-Taoist name “Inner Smile”. Why not Taoist? Because even if we assume that this is a practice from the arsenal of some Chinese school of qigong of the internal style, which works primarily with the internal state, then the question arises, what does a smile have to do with it.

Adherents of the traditions of internal qigong do not work with emotions or facial muscle movements, which are indirect confirmation of the state of pleasure and joy. Their main tool is chi energy. By the way, there is no concept of “smile energy”, “anger energy”, just as, in fact, there is no concept of “sexual energy”. All these terms were invented by the popularizers of Taoist practices for greater simplicity and clarity of the European followers of the difficult Chinese philosophy.

If we assume that the practice of "Inner Smile" is used by adherents of the external style of qigong, which involves physical exercises as a way to change the energy state, then the word "internal" would not be in the name. The trainer would suggest stretching the lips in the way that smiling people usually do, but at the same time would not put emphasis on the movement of energy in the system of internal organs.

Simply put, the name "Inner Smile" can be confusing for any ethnic Chinese, and there is doubt that this practice is of Chinese origin. Rather, we are dealing with a paradox: usually European goods are counterfeited in China, but it is quite possible that Europeans have learned to fake Chinese practices!

I first became acquainted with this practice in the book Manteca Chia "". Until I became a student of the ethnic Chinese, Tao Master Ji Xiaogang, I did not have the slightest doubt that everything described in the book is the Chinese truth. However, the deeper I immersed myself in learning from the Master, the more obvious it became: something was wrong with these inner smiles!

When I reopened the book, I found on the title page next to the name of Manteca Chia another name - Rachel Carlton Abrams. It turned out that

co-author of a genius popularizer or even sole author of the bestselling Mantec Chia brand, M.D., family practitioner specializing in alternative medicine and women's health and sexuality. Now something becomes clearer!

What is the point of this exercise? Readers of the book are invited to close their eyes, imagine a smiling face in front of them and smile back. Then you need to feel how the energy of love penetrates through the third eye. And then you need to direct this energy to different organs. In fact, it is not so difficult if a person feels the movement of energy even a little.

The author precedes the description of the technique with several guidelines - "a smile can become a powerful means of internal healing" and "even smiling, no matter what, you can improve your mood." The following is the purpose of the practice.- “to cultivate in ourselves that feeling of love that we usually experience when we see a small child, a beloved animal, or admiring a picturesque sunset.” We will not discuss in detail the dubiousness of the idea that love is a state that is achieved as a result of education or self-education. It makes no sense to say that not everyone is smiling at the contemplation of a child or an animal, and even more so, a sunset.

Suppose that the Inner Smile actually helps those who practice this technique to improve their condition. But I want to understand how this practice looks in the Chinese version!

I asked Master Ji to type in the Chinese characters for "Inner Smile" in a Chinese search engine. The master wrote several versions, but nothing like the Chinese classical qigong was found. The Chinese Internet stubbornly insisted that a smile had nothing to do with the mastery of energy management, and qigong is translated exactly like this: “qi” is energy, “gong” is skill. The Chinese do not need anything other than energy and body to work with energy.. All exercises that use the phrase “imagine” and suggest visualizing the process of energy movement are a typical European trick. I asked the mentor what he thought about this practice, and the Master replied: “Most likely, this is just a psychological technique.”

It seemed to me that the mystery of the well-known exercise was already almost solved, it remains only to find out what principle underlies it. So I turned to a psychotherapist friend for help.

Eureka! We have found the source of inspiration for the creators of "Inner Smile"! Turns out, in the history of psychology was the organic theory of James - Lange. The authors of the theory argued that emotional sensations are a manifestation of functional changes in the body. That is, under the influence of external stimuli, first changes occur inside, and only then does emotion appear. “We are sad because we cry, we are angry because we strike, we are afraid because we tremble.” Following the logic of this theory, if you make facial movements corresponding to a smile, after a while a state of joy will arise.

But the most interesting thing, in my opinion, in this whole story is connection between psychology and . The followers of the organic theory of James-Lange are convinced that emotions are the result of changes at the level of the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system is a department of the nervous system that regulates the activity of internal organs, endocrine and external secretion glands, blood and lymphatic vessels. Important parts of the autonomic system, sympathetic and parasympathetic, are located in the spinal cord and brain. And from the point of view of the Taoists, the energy management system is located precisely in the brain and spinal cord! Therefore, in the Chinese philosophical system Wu Xing, which helps to work with energy, five emotions are associated with five dense and five hollow organs. However, the difference between the European and Chinese approach is that in Taoist practice it is not customary to artificially evoke "ghosts of emotions" with the help of facial movements. And for correct work with energy, it is absolutely not necessary to smile, it is enough just to be able to direct the energy of the Sources into different energy channels.

And finally the most important idea is about the role of a smile for energy harmony. In the main book of Taoists, the Tao Te Ching, written by the great thinker Lao Tzu, it is written: “Man follows the laws of the Earth, Earth follows the laws of Heaven, Heaven follows the laws of Tao, and Tao follows the laws of nature.” Taoists do not recognize any forced emotions and the cultivation of feelings in oneself. Feelings and emotions are what is formed as a result of natural processes. That's why a much more important practice can be your smile - only when you have a natural reason to smile! Be natural and healthy!

Mantak Chia is the creator of the system known as the "Universal Tao" and the founder and director of the "Healing Tao Center" in New York.

Taoist Master Mantek Chia was born in Bangkok in 1944. At the age of six, he received his first initiation from Buddhist monks. As a schoolboy, he learned martial arts, tai chi quan and aikido. Craving for Taoist practices led him to the famous Taoist master Yi Yen (White Cloud), who lived in the mountains near Hong Kong. Master Yi Yong became the main teacher of Master Mantaek Chia, from him he learned to transfer life force energy through his hands, direct energy along the Microcosmic Orbit and open the Six Special Channels, he mastered the technique of Merging the Five Elements, the practice of Internal Alchemy. It was Master Yi Yong who authorized Manteq Chia to pass on the teachings to his students. Later, Mantek Chia studied Kundalini Yoga and Taoist Yoga – Tao-Yin, as well as the practice of “Buddha Palm” in Singapore with teacher Meuji. Soon he already learned to remove energy blocks, both from himself and from his students and patients.

Mantak Chia later studied with master Pang Yu, who created a synthesis of the teachings of Taoism, Buddhism, and Zen Buddhism, and with teacher Cheng Yao-Long, who also created a new system that combined Thai boxing with kung fu. From Teacher Pang Yu, the master learned about the exchange of yin and yang energies between a man and a woman, and also received techniques that prevent aging and destruction of the body. Master Cheng Yao-Long taught Manteku Chia the secret Shaolin methods of working with internal energy and the Neigong technique, or cleansing the marrow and renewing the tendons.

Later, Master Chia studied Western medical sciences and anatomy for two years in order to better understand the mechanisms behind the workings of the Tao's healing energy. Using his knowledge of the complete system of Taoism as a basis and supplementing it with what he learned from other teachings, Mantak Chia developed the Universal Tao System and began to teach other people based on it. Then, to help himself, he trained other teachers and founded the Tao Garden in Thailand. He developed the "Healing Tao System" which is now taught in many cities in the United States, Canada and Europe.

The Taoist practice of the Inner Smile strengthens the energy of the internal organs and glands of our body, our entire life force in general, calms and focuses our “heart mind” (Sheng). This makes us more aware of our body and our inner being, because we learn to communicate with our internal organs, glands, spine and other specific areas of our body, as well as with our soul. Taoists discovered that consciousness is not only in our brain, but also in all vital organs, and in a more subtle sense, in every cell of our body.

The daily practice of the Inner Smile provides us with time to look within ourselves, to keep in touch with our internal organs, our Qi, our breath and emotions. This enables us to notice any problems as they arise and helps balance our emotions and virtues.

Three lines of Inner Smile

A. Smile to Internal Organs: Front Line

1. Brow Point and Eyes: Relax your forehead and be aware of the smiling energy that gathers in front of your eyes in the form of golden light. Imagine the feelings that come over you when you enter a beautiful garden. Feeling this, imagine your own smiling face right in front of you. Feel how the Smile energy shines like the sun. Collect this radiation in a spiral to the point between your eyebrows, drawing energy through this point and closed eyes, stimulating the pituitary gland.

← Smile along the front line

2. Face: Continue to draw the energy of the Smile to the point between the eyebrows; feel the third eye expand. Allow Qi to flow in through the nose and cheeks. Feel how it relaxes your skin, muscles and warms your face from the inside. Allow a smile to flow into your mouth by lifting the corners of your lips slightly. Feel the smiling energy flow into your tongue and move your tongue around to activate the flow of saliva. When you feel saliva filling, swallow it. Touch the upper palate with your tongue and leave it in this position until the end of the practice (this will connect the Main and Functional channels, which are the two main conductors of energy in our body). Swallow the saliva, passing it to the thymus gland, the heart and further down. Feel how the energy of the Smile flows into your cheekbones, releasing them from any tension. Slightly open your mouth, separating the teeth, but keeping the position of the tongue in the palate.

3. Neck and throat: Smile at your neck and throat. Let your neck settle down a bit and take a break from holding your head. Smile at the thyroid and parathyroid glands located at the front of your neck. Feel how the energy relieves all tension, and your throat opens like a beautiful flower bud.

4. Throat and Sternum: When there is a lot of saliva, swallow it in the direction of the organs that you smile at. Allow the energy of the Smile to flow into the thymus gland, located between the throat and the sternum. Feel it expand, exuding warm, fragrant, smiling energy towards the heart.

5. Heart: The heart is the size of a fist and is located behind the sternum, slightly to the left of center. Smile to your heart and thank it for the circulation of blood in your body. Feel how it relaxes, and it becomes easier for it to work. Let the energy of Smile fill your heart with love. Feel how intolerance and temper are transformed into joy and respect. Love, joy, respect and unconditional compassion come from the heart. Feel how these virtues radiate to all the internal organs, glands and throughout the body.

6. Lungs: Smile at every cell in your lungs and thank them for taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide. Feel how they soften and become more spongy and moist, filled with the energy of a Smile. Feel how the virtues of the heart (love and joy) breathe into the lungs the energy of a smile, how it transforms any sadness and depression into virtue and courage.

7. Liver: Smile into your liver, which is located on the right at the base of your chest. Thank her for the role she plays in digestion, processing, storing and releasing nutrients, and removing various toxins. Feel how it becomes softer and its moisture increases. Allow the energy of the Smile, saturated with the virtues of the heart and lungs (love, joy, virtue, courage), to transform all the anger accumulated in the liver into kindness.

8. Pancreas and Spleen: Smile into your pancreas at the base of your left chest. Thank her for producing insulin, which regulates blood sugar levels, and enzymes for digesting food. Smile at your spleen, located behind the pancreas at the same level on the left. Thank her for the production of antibodies that defeat various diseases. As you smile into your spleen and pancreas, feel all worries being transformed into fearlessness by the energy of the Smile filled with the virtues of the heart, lungs, and liver.

9. Kidneys: Bring the Smile energy to your kidneys, located on either side of your back in the lower chest at waist level. Thank them for filtering your blood, ridding it of waste, and keeping your body hydrated. Feel how they become cooler, fresher and cleaner. Smile to your adrenal glands, which are above the kidneys; they produce adrenaline and other hormones. Feel how all fears are transformed into the virtue of gentleness with the help of the energy of the Smile and other already accumulated virtues.

10. Genitals: Draw the energy of the Smile down into the genital area. In women, this area is known as the “Palace of the Ovaries,” and is three inches below the navel midway between the ovaries. Smile and direct the accumulated energy in a spiral into the ovaries, uterus and vagina. Thank your ovaries for producing hormones and providing you with sexual energy. Bring the generalized energy of Smile, virtue and sexuality up to the navel and twist at that point.

In men, the genital area is known as the "Sperm Palace", and is located one and a half inches above the base of the penis in the prostate area. Smile and spiral the accumulated energies down into the prostate and testicles.

Thank them for producing hormones and supplying you with sexual energy. Send the generalized energy of Smile, virtue and sexuality up to the navel and twist at this point.

Note: When returning energy to the navel for storage, mentally create a spiral movement to concentrate and hold it in this place. Rotation creates a suction of energy like a vacuum.

11. Eyes: Bring your attention back to your eyes. Quickly smile down into your front line organs, checking each one for residual tension. Smile at each tension until it dissolves.

B. Smile along the digestive tract: Midline.

1. Stomach: Be aware of the Smile energy in your eyes and between the eyebrows again and allow it to flow straight into your mouth. Be aware of your tongue and rotate it to produce saliva. Place your tongue on the upper palate, tighten your neck muscles, and swallow the saliva quickly with force, accompanied by a swallowing sound. With your Inner Smile, follow the movement of saliva down the esophagus to the stomach, located on the left side of the chest. Thank your stomach for digesting your food and feel how it relaxes, saturated with energy.

2. Small Intestine: Smile into the small intestine in the middle of the upper abdomen. Thank him for absorbing nutrients.

3. Large Intestine: Smile into the large intestine, which surrounds the small intestine from above and on both sides, and into the rectum. Thank the large intestine for the fact that it removes all unnecessary from the body.

4. Bladder and Urethra: Draw the Smile energy into the bladder, which is just behind the pubic bone, and into the urethra. Thank these organs for collecting and expelling urine.

5. Eyes: Return your attention to your eyes. Smile quickly down the midline, checking for any remaining tension. Smile at that tension until it dissolves.

← Smile along the midline of the digestive tract

B. Smile along the spine: Posterior line.

1. Eyes: Bring your attention back to your eyes and draw more energy in through your eyes and between your eyebrows.
2. Glands of the brain: Activate the secretion of saliva and swallow it by pressing the tongue upwards, directing the energy to the brain. Draw in the energy of the Smile through the eyes and between the eyebrows.
Smile into the Pituitary, which is three or four inches behind the eyebrows. Feel the pituitary gland blossom. Smile at the thalamus, which is located directly above the spinal cord, slightly behind and above the pituitary gland, and the hypothalamus, located at the base of the third ventricle of the brain. Smile at the pineal gland just below the crown point. Feel these glands take shape and enlarge. Smile into the left and right sides of the brain to balance and nourish them.
3. Vertebral Column: Smile into the midbrain, cerebellum and first cervical vertebra at the base of the skull. Send the loving energy down through all the vertebrae to the base of the spine. (The vertebrae that make up the spinal column: seven cervical, twelve thoracic, five lumbar; base of the spine: sacrum and coccyx). The discs between each vertebra soften, the spine expands and lengthens. Your back should feel free and comfortable.
4. Backline: Bring your attention back to your eyes and smile quickly down the backline. This exercise greatly increases the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and calms the nervous system. Your whole body will feel relaxed.

Smile along the back lineSmile to the brain

G. Smile down the whole body.

Whole body: Start again at the eyes and quickly move the Inner Smile down the front, middle, and back lines. If you already have experience with this practice, smile down three lines at the same time, being aware of the internal organs and the spine. Feel how the energy spreads along the entire length of your body like a waterfall of love and peace. Feel the relaxation in the muscles, skin and bones throughout your body.

E. Gathering and maintaining energy at the navel

To complete the practice, it is very important to keep the accumulated energies at the navel. If there is too much Qi left in the head or heart. this will be the cause of most of the adverse effects of meditation. Drawing the energy into the navel to store it safely can prevent these problems. To gather energy, concentrate on the navel about an inch and a half inside the body. Then begin to mentally rotate the energy, moving in a divergent spiral with each turn, until you complete 36 cycles. At the same time, do not go beyond the diaphragm and the pubic bone. Finally, draw the energy back to the navel for 24 cycles.

Men: Cover the navel with both palms, left over right. Start rotating clockwise 36 times.

Women: Cover the navel with both palms, right over left. Start rotating counterclockwise 36 times.

Men and women: Then change direction and rotate the spiral towards the navel 24 times (men rotate counterclockwise; women rotate clockwise). Move closer to the navel with each turn. This completes the Inner Smile and should feel the increase in your Chi flow.

Energizing Inner Smile

We start smiling into the bladder, uterus, ovaries, testicles and prostate because that creates a lot of energy.

Rock lightly.

Smile into the bladder, uterus, ovaries, testicles, and prostate. Imagine these organs and connect with them. Feel their connection to the brain and how their energy moves up the spine to nourish the brain. Imagine a big blue ocean and a fire burning underneath. Watch as beautiful blue light evaporates from the ocean.

Smile at your kidneys. Smile this beautiful blue light into the bladder, uterus, ovaries or testicles and prostate, and into the kidneys, bringing peace to the kidneys. Feel these organs fill with blue light. Allow this blue light, softness and calmness to spread throughout the body, especially to the liver. Feel how it energizes the liver.

Smile into your liver. Imagine your liver and connect with it. Imagine the sun shining in the forest. Watch the green light. Smile with this green universal light and kindness into your liver. Feel the liver filling with green light. Let it radiate to all organs, especially to the heart. Feel the green light fill your heart with energy.

Smile in your heart. Imagine a heart and connect with it. Be aware of the red light, like a sunset over the oceans. Smile with this red light in your heart with love, patience and inner joy. Feel your heart fill with red light and love. Let them radiate from the heart throughout the body, especially into the stomach, spleen and pancreas. Feel the red light energize these organs.

Smile into the stomach, spleen and pancreas. Imagine these organs and connect with them. Imagine the beautiful clear rays of the late summer sun, golden light full of balance and harmony. Smile with this golden light into the stomach, spleen and pancreas. Experience peace, serenity and centeredness. Allow this golden light to radiate throughout your body, especially into your lungs. Feel the golden yellow light filling your lungs with energy.

The cycle of creation

Smile into your lungs. Imagine them and connect with them. Feel the fresh pure white light of the high mountains. Smile this light into your lungs, nose, skin, and small intestines. Let it radiate throughout the body, especially to the kidneys.

Do two more rounds of this Inner Smile cycle. Then gather the Smile energy in your bladder, womb, or prostate, and allow that energy to travel up your spine and into your brain. Hold the energy there. Feel how this Smile energy energizes the brain, spine, nerves and all organs and glands, how muscles connect with nerves. Take a rest. Concentrate on the energy in your brain and back. Feel the energy in the brain and the expanding consciousness.

Inner Smile that relaxes and balances emotions.

We usually start with the heart, because the heart produces many powerful emotions, especially love and hate. When you start smiling to your heart, hatred or irritability can sometimes appear. If you can keep smiling to your heart, then you will feel that inner joy, love and happiness will begin to grow in your heart much more easily. If people do not feel love, inner joy and happiness, nothing can make them happy.

There is nothing wrong with negative emotions as long as you are aware of them and know how to transform them. This will help prevent blockage of energy in the organs. You need to be able to find a balance.

Emotions such as hatred, anger, irritability, fear will always arise. You need to observe, be aware of them and work with them constantly so that they do not grow excessively and block energy in the internal organs and other parts of your body.

If you continue to do the Inner Smile and Six Healing Sounds meditations and develop the energy of virtues (pure light) in the organs of your body, eventually there will simply be no room left for these negative energies (emotions).

Gently rock your body, especially your spine.

Practice

Smile to your heart. Feel love, inner joy and happiness in your heart. Expand that love and happiness into the universe and multiply it. Continue to expand unconditional love, inner joy and happiness from your heart into the Universe and feel it return multiplied into your heart with a red light. Let this light shine into all the organs of your body like sunlight. If hatred arises, keep smiling, sending love and happiness to that feeling, and soon it will turn into the energy of love and happiness.

Smile into the stomach, spleen and pancreas. Watch the restlessness within them. Breathe in golden yellow light, a sense of openness and fearlessness that matches the energies of the earth, harmony and centeredness. Embrace your anxieties, balance them with the virtues of being open, fearless, and centered.

Smile into your lungs. Watch all the sadness accumulated in them. Breathe in pure white light and courage that matches the energy of the metal. Accept your sadness and balance it with courage.

Smile into the kidneys and bladder. Observe any fear within them. Let the sun shine over the ocean, producing blue light. Breathe in that blue light, the softness and peace that match the energy of water. Accept your fear and balance it with gentleness and peace.

Smile into your liver. Watch any anger, resentment and frustration in your liver. Let the sun shine over the forest, producing green light. Breathe in this green light, kindness and generosity, corresponding to the energy of the tree. Accept your anger and balance it with kindness and generosity.

Do two more rounds of this Inner Smile cycle, relaxing and balancing emotions, transforming “negative emotions” into virtue energy.

In Taoism, negative emotions are viewed as low quality energy.

Many people spend their lives in anger, sadness, depression, fear, anxiety, and other forms of negative energy. These energies are the causes of chronic disease and imperceptibly deplete our basic life force.

A sincere smile sends out the energy of love, which has the power to warm and heal. Just remember a time when you were upset or sick physically and someone, perhaps even a stranger, genuinely smiled at you - and suddenly you feel better.

Norman Casips writes in Anatomy of a Disease that he cured himself of a rare connective tissue disease by watching old Marx Brothers movies. One of my students cured herself of breast cancer by constantly practicing the Inner Smile to the area that was diseased.

In ancient China, Tao Masters discovered the power of smile energy. They practiced the Inner Smile to themselves. It moved the Qi energy and formed a high quality Qi flow, thus achieving health, happiness and longevity. Smiling to yourself is like enjoying love, and love can restore and rejuvenate.

The Inner Smile directs smiling energy into our organs and glands, which are so necessary for life. Ironically, although we often pay a lot of attention to our appearance, very few of us know what the internal organs and glands look like, where they are located and what their functions are. Moreover, we are insensitive to the subtle warnings they send us when we mistreat them by eating the wrong diets and living an unhealthy lifestyle. We are like a manager who never pays attention to his subordinates and is very surprised when something happens.

If we get to know our organs and glands, begin to understand what they do, and learn to hear their signals, they will reward us with a state of peace and vitality.

The Inner Smile is most effective for neutralizing stress.

The Inner Smile is closely related to the thymus and increases the functional activity of this gland. In the Taoist system, the thymus is the seat of the beautiful light, love, and life force of Di-energy.

When we are under the influence of emotional stress, the thymus gland - the thymus - is damaged first. The book Your Body Doesn't Lie by Dr. John Dimop presents research that shows that the thymus plays the role of an ingenious regulator that directs the flow of vital and healing energies in the body.

Therefore, the thymus plays a key role in preventing cancer throughout adulthood.

In applied kinesiology there is a way to determine if the thymus gland is healthy or in a weakened state, for which the Inner Smile is of great importance.

By smiling at your organs, you make them enlarge, soft and moist, and thus more efficient. As a result, the liver, for example, has more room to store nutrients and detoxify harmful substances.

Start your Inner Smile practice with your eyes. They are connected to the autonomic nervous system, which regulates the function of organs and glands. The eyes are the first to receive emotional cues and sometimes cause the organs and glands to speed up their response to stress or danger (the “fight or flight” response) and relax when the critical situation has passed.

Ideally, the eyes maintain a calm and balanced level of response. Therefore, simply by relaxing your eyes, you can relax your entire body and thus free your energy to function.

When you smile at your organs, sensations and glands, you connect with them and can communicate well with them.

1. The main sources of hearing energy

The main sources of auditory energy are the kidneys and their associated organ, the bladder. For example, when the kidneys are functioning well, you are more attentive and therefore learn more easily. The work of the kidneys is connected with the work of the ears. Auditory sensation - hearing - is necessary for learning. When your kidneys are healthy, your hearing improves and this makes learning easier.

The bladder aids in the removal of toxic fluid, which helps cleanse the blood and allow fluids to flow freely. If the bladder is damaged, the functioning of the kidneys is also affected.

2. The main sources of speech energy

The main sources of speech energy are the heart and the organ associated with it - the small intestine. The heart gives the mood for learning and is the receptacle of joy. Without a passionate desire or attitude to study, the learning process would be difficult. The secret of learning lies in joy, pleasure and enjoyment. When these factors are present, your entire body will receive what you learn.

The heart is also a place of respect and honor. When you are respected, the heart is open.

Language is connected to the heart, and once that connection is in place and working, you can begin to receive and program your mind bit by bit, bit by bit, absorbing what you have learned.

The small intestine helps your learning. When you have problems with the small intestine, the functions of the heart can be affected. In most cases, in order to learn something new, we need time to absorb it into all our systems.

3. The main sources of vision energy
