Why Shellfish Allergy Persists Despite Avoidance?

BioCoherence Meditation

Visualize the acupuncture points that support balance and comfort in the body. Begin with LI11, located at the outer elbow, where the arm bends. This point helps to clear heat and reduce inflammation, promoting a sense of calm and relief.

Next, move to ST36, found about four fingerbreadths below the kneecap, one fingerbreadth to the outer side of the shinbone. This point is vital for strengthening digestion and fostering vitality, helping to alleviate nausea and discomfort.

Now, focus on SP6, located about three fingerbreadths above the inner ankle bone, towards the back of the leg. This point nourishes Yin and supports overall balance in the body's systems. Please note, it is advised to avoid this point during pregnancy.

Lastly, visualize CV12, situated in the center of the abdomen, halfway between the bottom of the rib cage and the navel. This point stabilizes the stomach and aids in digestion, further reducing feelings of nausea and throat irritation.

As you breathe deeply, feel the energy flowing through these points, harmonizing the organs they influence. Imagine LI11 clearing away heat and irritation, ST36 fortifying your digestive strength, SP6 nourishing and balancing your systems, and CV12 providing stability and calmness.

Allow this visualization to guide you toward a state of natural ease, where your body feels balanced and healthy. Breathe in tranquility and exhale discomfort, embracing the healing properties of these points as they work together to restore your well-being. Continue to breathe deeply, letting this energy flow through you, bringing peace to the areas affected by shellfish sensitivity and related symptoms.
