Master and Coupled Points Location

Master and Coupled Points for the Extraordinary Meridians.

Master and Coupled Points Location These are the diagrams of the Master and Coupled Points that we use when practicing any of the Eight Exceptional Vessels Qigong.

The first point to be triggered is the Master

This is another example of the diagonal dynamic that is used in many
