running through the flesh. muscles, tendons, and nerves, and along the surface of the skin. Fig. 6. Close-up of typical Slightly different, but with similar functions, are those secondary secondary (skeletal) energy centers attached directly to physical organs, nerve ganglia, glands, and center, showing cross-section of finger joint (cutaway) muscles. These types of secondary centers are not attached to the skeletal system, and usually have only one or two poles flowering on the surface. I have not been able to determine a great deal more about this particular type of secondary energy center. The secondary centers and their connecting pathways are, not surprisingly, fairly well in-line with traditional acupuncture meridians and acupoints. There are also striking similarities between the secondary system, as a whole, and the human nervous and circulatory systems. Finger center Energy Exchange Ports Energy exchange ports (tertiary system) are very small energy centers with very simple functions, much like the millions of tiny pores covering the surface of the skin. Their basic function is to absorb and discharge energies. The whole surface of the skin is covered with these, but they are more heavily concentrated in several main areas: the soles of the feet, the palms of the hands, the nasal passages, the mouth, lips and tongue, and the genitals. The hands and feet are the largest energy conduits into the body and therefore contain the highest concentrations of exchange ports. So these are the most important areas to stimulate, develop, and make awareness-sensitive during early development exercises. Storage Centers The human energy body has three major vitality storage centers, where different qualities of energies are accumulated. These are quite different from the primary energy centers (major chakras) that share the same general areas, although they can be considered to be energetically related. Fig. 7. Three energy storage centers, plus major energy exchange port concentrations Sub-navel Position: Midway between bellybutton and pubic line, two inches inside average body Function: Raw physical vitality energy storage Sub-heart Position: Center of chest, at base of sternum, two inches inside average body Function: Raw emotional energy storage Sub-brow Position: Between eye-socket ridges in center of brow, just inside skull Function: Raw mental and psychic energy storage Of these three storage centers, the most important and safest to actively fill is the sub-navel storage center. When this center is full, it overflows into the sub-heart storage center, which when full overflows into the sub-brow storage center. Deliberately filling the two higher storage centers first is a very unwise practice that can unbalance the energy body and significantly lower vitality levels. This not only is developmentally counterproductive, but can also adversely affect emotional, mental, and psychic stability. Filling all the storage centers is a lifetime's work. It can take months of regular energy raising before sub54
