Introduction to the Liuhe Formation

Zhen is an ancient formation method that is often mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine and Taoist schools. This formation utilizes six different elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and air) to guide physical, emotional, and spiritual regulation. Each element is associated with different organs and meridians to create a healthy and balanced system. The purpose of this formation is to promote physical and mental health and enhance natural dynamics by balancing and harmonizing the six elements, thereby improving vital energy performance and resistance. In practice, people can regulate these elements through various methods, such as diet, exercise, breathing and meditation, to achieve a healthy balance of body and spirit.
