This is a special session focusing on the element of Earth and Stomach meridian featured by Cosmic Sole Tokyo in order for you to expand your awareness and take action. 

In the five-element map, the element of Earth is positioned at the center of five elements surrounded by four other elements on north, south, west, and east. It means that Earth is a key element in that it nurtures and energizes us by digestion and metabolism in order to live. 

Stomach meridian belongs to Earth element, and it is also important in maintaining our emotional balance; its unbalanced state would affect not only our energy balance but also our emotional balance. 

It is also essential in order for us to be grounded and centered; we need to be stabilized both physically and mentally in order to move forward when our life is chaotic. 

Stomach meridian runs from the eye to the tips of the toes, connecting main organs on the meridian. If there is any disorder in the eyes, the tooth, the chest, the digestive tracts, or the feet, it may be caused by an unbalance in the stomach meridian. 

In this session, many different techniques from various modalities are included to balance the Stomach meridian.  

The session starts from working on the face. At the very beginning of the session, the eyes are treated so that it stimulates the sensory organs and makes you feel where and for what you would like to move on. 

Then the treatment is focused on the teeth, representing the emotional state and decision-making.

A time to make connection with your deep self is given when working on the chest and abdomen.

Finally, the feet are treated so that it supports you to move forward and take action. 

This session is recommended during a phase of the Earth element (late summer and transitional time between seasons), especially rainy season in Japan when it is highly humid. The Stomach meridian tends to be unbalanced in humidity.
