I am relatiely new to macrobiotics, and have not read anything about Chi Kung, but I would like to at some point. I'm a bit embarrased to admit that.
I have studied a bit about yoga, and the concept of chakras, the focal points of energy nexuses in the body, and how for the most potent development of intuition, that one should practice exercises that keep the energy flowing through all points; that none become blocked and then intuition fed by energy from all centers is visualized as eventually being located at the top of the head - the third eye. I was intrigued by the concept of meridians in macrobiotics and how its teaching recommends similar exercises as a well-developed yoga program, to keep everything flowing. Maybe the center is focuses in the heart instead; my knowledge here is very rudimentary.
In sum, I think the heart palys a vital role in developing intuition, but in order for the intuition to be more accurate, other parts of the body need to be developed and balanced as well. That effective intuition is composed of many components. I don't know if I am making sense, but I do enjoy this dialogue!
Thanks, Mara for sugesting it!
