Visualize the acupuncture points that support the balance and well-being of the body, particularly in addressing pediatric asthma symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath.

Begin with GB23, located on the side of the chest, just below the armpit. This point, known as Zhejin, promotes chest and lung support, helping to open the airways and ease breathing.

Next, focus on LR1, situated at the edge of the big toe. This point, called Dadun, supports liver function, promoting the smooth flow of energy throughout the body, which is essential in managing respiratory issues.

Now, bring your awareness to LY7, found on the inner side of the leg, just below the knee. Known as Zhaohai, this point nourishes the lower abdomen, enhancing overall vitality and supporting lung health.

Shift your attention to GV16, located at the base of the skull. Fengfu helps clear the head and promotes mental clarity, which can relieve stress that exacerbates asthma symptoms. Note the importance of avoiding this point in pregnancy.

Finally, concentrate on LR7, positioned behind the knee. Xiguan soothes the liver, helping to release tension and balance emotions, contributing to a calmer state that supports respiratory health.

As you meditate on these points, visualize a flow of healing energy circulating through your body. Imagine each point glowing with warmth and light, enhancing the functions of the lungs and liver, and creating a harmonious balance.

Breathe deeply, allowing each inhalation to fill your chest with fresh energy and each exhalation to release tension and discomfort. Envision this natural process effortlessly restoring you to a state of ease, where breathing is free and unencumbered. Continue to focus on this balance, allowing your mind and body to align with optimal health.
