跟著時辰去養生 (寶雲治療師Alice）

In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), there is a theory derived from the "Huangdi Neijing" 《黃帝內經》 called the "Ziwu Liuzhu Map." (子午流注圖)This concept, discovered by TCM sages, identifies a rule that divides a 24-hour day into 12 two-hour periods, each corresponding to one of the 12 meridians in the human body. （12個時辰對應人體12條經脈）Therefore, each period has a different meridian in operation. By living according to this rule, the organs can perform their functions effectively, eliminate toxins, and strengthen the body to prevent disease.

11pm-1am (Zi Period)– Gallbladder Meridian: This is when bile metabolism occurs, and bone marrow produces blood. It is advisable to sleep. （子時）－ 膽經

1 - 3am (Chou Period)– Liver Meridian: During this time, the qi and blood in the body return to the liver for blood filtration. It is advisable to sleep. （丑時）－ 肝經

3 - 5am (Yin Period)– Lung Meridian: The lungs distribute qi and blood throughout the body, and deep sleep aids in this process. It is advisable to sleep. （寅時）－ 肺經

5 - 7am (Mao Period)– Large Intestine Meridian: Qi and blood flow to the large intestine to eliminate waste. It is advisable to go to the bathroom. （卯時） － 大腸經

7 - 9am (Chen Period)– Stomach Meridian: This is the best time for digestion and metabolism, providing the necessary energy for the day. It is advisable to have breakfast. （辰時）－ 胃經

9 - 11am (Si Period)– Spleen Meridian: This is when qi and blood are at their peak, and the spleen is responsible for the harmony of digestion, absorption, and elimination. TCM states that "the spleen governs the muscles." It is advisable to do some stretching activities. （已時） － 脾經

11am - 1pm (Wu Period)– Heart Meridian: The heart governs blood vessels and mental clarity. It is advisable to take a short rest. （午時） － 心經

1 - 3pm (Wei Period)– Small Intestine Meridian: The small intestine is most active during this time, absorbing nutrients. It is advisable to have lunch. （未時） － 小腸經

3 - 5pm (Shen Period)– Bladder Meridian: Qi and blood flow to the bladder to eliminate bodily waste. It is advisable to drink more water. （申時） － 膀胱經

5 - 7pm (You Period)– Kidney Meridian: This is when the kidneys eliminate toxins, and the senses of smell and taste are most sensitive. It is advisable to have dinner. （酉時）－ 腎經

7 - 9pm (Xu Period)– Pericardium Meridian: Qi and blood in the pericardium are abundant, protecting the heart and preserving energy. It is advisable to rest and recuperate. （戌時） － 心包經

9 - 11pm (Hai Period)– Triple Warmer Meridian: The Sanjiao Meridian governs the various energies in the body, transporting them to all organs. It is advisable to rest, practice meditation, or engage in quiet activities. （亥時）－ 三焦經

This physiological clock governs the detoxification times of various body organs, making it very important. To achieve good health, one must pay attention to it. For example, if someone frequently stays up until two or three in the morning, the detoxification of the gallbladder and liver will be obstructed, which can lead to illness and disease. Please take good care of your body and cultivate good living habits for good circulation, flow and detoxifications ☺️❤️🙏😉

10月28日是寶雲先生的逝世周年紀念。寶雲治療師們都懷念這位以天賦和不懈努力學習而聞名的傑出人物。他創立了舒緩疼痛和身體緊繃問題的獨特方法，為無數人帶來了希望與改變。讓我們共同緬懷寶雲先生的貢獻與精神。
28th October marks the anniversary of Mr. Bowen’s passing. We, Bowen practitioners remember this remarkable individual, who was known for his innate talent and relentless pursuit of knowledge. He established unique methods to alleviate pain and relieve bodily tension, bringing hope and transformation to countless lives. Let me briefly introduce Mr. Bowen's contributions and spirit.

𝑫𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝑩𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒏 𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒑𝒚 𝒐𝒓 𝑩𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒏 𝑻𝒆𝒄𝒉𝒏𝒊𝒒𝒖𝒆? 𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒆’𝒔 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒇𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝑩𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒏 𝑨𝒄𝒂𝒅𝒆𝒎𝒚 𝑨𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝑨𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒂 𝒆𝒙𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒕𝒆𝒄𝒉𝒏𝒊𝒒𝒖𝒆 𝒐𝒏 𝑻𝑽 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒔 𝒂𝒈𝒐. 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒎: “𝑮𝒐𝒐𝒅 𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑵𝒆𝒘 𝒁𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒅”

Bowen technique originates from Australia where, in the mid 50s, it was developed and practised by Mr. Tom Bowen. Studying many methods of complementary medicine, he integrated in his own technique what he found and felt to be the most effective and efficient. He was extremely busy in his Geelong clinic, performing about 13,000 treatments a year. In 1974, while attending a national health conference in Adelaide, Australia, Oswald (Ossie)
Rentsch met Mr. Bowen for the first time. In 1974 Mr. Bowen allowed Oswald Renstch to take notes of his technique and also authorised him to teach and spread his technique far and wide after his death. Mr Bowen had 6 people helping him in his clinic but Ossie was the only one who documented it all and taught it globally together with Elaine. In 1986, four years after Tom’s death, owing to Ossie and his wife Elaine Rentch, the teaching of this technique far and wide began, first in Australia and later overseas. To
preserve the Original technique, Ossie and Elaine founded The Bowen Therapy Academy of Australia in 1987. It was named Bowtech ® – The Original Bowen Technique. Since then, it has spread globally and gained enormous popularity. Other Bowen schools were established by the pupils of the academy with incorporation of their own experiences.

Support for Expecting Mothers in Pregnancy

The Bowen Technique is a gentle and non-invasive therapy designed to support your body during this special time. It promotes healing and helps relieve physical discomfort and pain, making it a wonderful complement to your pregnancy journey.

Bowen Therapy enhances the connection between fascia and the nerves, muscles, and tendons. This is important during pregnancy, as healthy fascia plays a crucial role in muscle coordination, postural alignment, and overall structural integrity.

As your body undergoes significant changes, maintaining flexible fascia is key. By focusing on your pelvic and spinal alignment throughout pregnancy, Bowen Therapy can help alleviate back pain, sciatica, headaches, and tension in the neck and shoulders. Additionally, it supports your circulatory and neurological systems, reducing issues like reflux, heartburn, nausea, and constipation, all while nourishing your growing baby.

As you approach the end of your pregnancy, Bowen sessions can be particularly beneficial in relieving discomfort associated with pelvic pressure, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, and aching feet, legs, and groin. It can even assist in optimizing fetal positioning before birth.

Here are some common conditions Bowen Therapy can help alleviate for expectant mothers:
✨ Backache / Hip pain / Sciatica
✨ Fluid retention / Aching legs
✨ Headaches / Dizziness
✨ Emotional fatigue / Stress / Anxiety
✨ Nausea / Heartburn
✨ Tender breasts
✨ Breathlessness
✨ Decreased energy levels

If you're looking for a natural way to ease the challenges of pregnancy, consider the Bowen Technique! Your comfort and well-being are our top priorities. 💖

✨ I'm happy to share that my writing on Bowen therapy and my books have been featured once again in Bowen Hands, the Journal of Bowen Therapy of Australia! Feeling truly blessed for this opportunity. I’ll continue to dedicate myself to serving with my hands. Thank you for all the support to me!

Bowen therapy is a holistic therapy❤️

An overactive nervous system can manifest in many ways, from muscle tension to racing thoughts and disrupted sleep.

Bowen Therapy works gently to calm your nervous system, aiming to ease these symptoms and restore balance, to the best of your body's ability.

We’d like to share another positive experience from our Bowen therapy practice in Hong Kong which happened just this morning.

奧斯瓦德·倫奇 Oswald Rentsch剛在六月廿一日慶祝他的九十二歲生日。因為他，寶雲療法才得以在各國推行及得到廣泛應用而幫助到大眾。讓我來為他如何遇上及發展寶雲療法作為簡單的介紹：

1974年，在澳洲的Adelaide 阿德萊德，奧斯瓦德·倫奇 Oswald Rentsch (Ossie）在參加一次國家健康會議時，第一次遇見湯瑪士·寶雲（Thomas Bowen)。儘管他對寶雲先生的工作一無所知，但奧斯自告奮勇地問他是否能向他學習。寶雲先生握住奧斯的手，過了一會兒，說：“好！來吧，我會教你。我將會叫我的秘書約你。”幾小時後，寶雲先生找到奧斯並說：“你下星期三上午九點到我的門診部。”

奧斯和太太伊蓮（Elaine) 在接下來的兩年半裡研究寶雲先生的技術，最終被他授權使用並編寫文件說明工作。寶雲先生並沒有筆記、圖表或手冊，但在蕾妮·霍伍德（Rene Horwood)的幫助下，奧斯製作了寶雲技術的真實筆錄。

1976年，奧斯和伊蓮在漢密爾頓，維多利亞（Hamilton, Victoria)開始在他們的診所使用寶雲先生的方法。為尊敬寶雲先生的遺願，他倆在他離世後繼續教育他的工作，奧斯和伊蓮將其命名為寶雲療法。1986年，在澳洲的佩斯舉行了他們的第一個研討會。到1990年，奧斯和伊蓮全職在整個澳洲教育寶雲療法，致力於保護這種技術並確保以真實形式教育一眾治療師。

1987年，他們建立了澳洲寶雲療法高等學院，最終將此技術命名為寶特寶雲療法。從那時起，奧斯和伊蓮已將寶特寶雲療法引入許多國家。他們尊重奧斯對寶雲先生臨終前所做的承諾，在全球傳播他的工作。他們將此製作為教師教材，並註冊高等學院。

由於這種技術有高效性，人們廣泛接受它。各介人士對寶雲療法的效力印象深刻。

According to The School of Life, we should do interviews with our body at times:
“We might start with: What does the body need now?
The answer may surprise us both by its rapidity and its specificity: a hug, a stretch on a ladder, a chance to curl up, to let out an enormous scream, a desire to be pressed by a huge weight or to cry. Even perhaps, a desire to push away a parent or draw a friend closer. How surprising that this lay just beneath the surface and that we would normally have overlooked it entirely.
We can go on:
What does the body not dare to ask for?
What has it had enough of?
What does it need more of?
What is far far too heavy for it?
What is it very scared of?
Where does it long to be right now?
Then we can move the questions on to specific body parts:
What do my shoulders need?
What does my back want?
What does my stomach long for?
What would my legs ideally like?
When considered in this light, a lot of what we call illnesses are attempts by the body to speak about particular discomforts that we have been too busy, tense or dutiful to attend to in more standard ways. We get back ache, or sore shoulders when there are burdens we repeatedly ignore. Our jaws clench and we grind our teeth when there are cries we haven’t let out. We may find our muscles aching and retreating when there is an energy or rage we have not given ourselves licence to experience. The body can be the locus for those of our wishes, fears and griefs that we have disowned and exiled.
The more we can entertain our emotional lives, the less the body will need to articulate them for us in painful and bothersome symptomatic forms. The more we can directly feel, the less our bodies will need to enact. Through regular interviews, we can try to catch the body’s communications when they are still in the form of moans and hints rather than screams, panic or despair.”
Before pains and illnesses …

注意情緒、注意身體❤️
根據The School of life的一篇文章，
我們需要定期與身體進行內在對話：
「身體，你現在需要什麼？」
答案可能是一個擁抱，伸展，蜷縮，尖叫，哭泣。可能是希望推開父母或拉近朋友。這些需求就藏在表面之下，而我們通常會完全忽視它。

「身體不敢要求什麼？
它已經受夠了什麼？
它需要更多什麼？
對它來說太過沉重的是什麼？
它非常害怕什麼？
它現在最渴望的是在哪裡？」

我們繼而可以再問問
「肩膀 你需要什麼？
背部 你想要什麼？
胃 你渴望什麼？
腿 你想要什麼？」
許多我們所謂的疾病其實是身體試圖表達特定不適之處，而我們卻因為太忙、太緊張或太盡責而忽略了。當我們忽視某些情感、負擔時，可能會感到背痛或肩膀酸痛。當我們壓抑情感時，我們的下巴可能會緊咬，磨牙。當我們未能允許自己憤怒時，我們可能會感到肌肉酸痛、收縮。身體會成為我們那些被我們否認和不理會的情感、想法、恐懼和悲傷的最終承受的地方。

我們越能夠接納自己的情感，身體就越不需要以痛苦和困擾的狀態形式來表達。我們越能夠直接感受、體驗，身體就越不需要將這些表現出來。通過定期的內在對話，我們可以嘗試在身體的溝通還處於呻吟和暗示的階段時抓住它們，而不是讓身體去到尖叫、恐慌或絕望。因而產生痛楚、疾病…
