Explore point →Shenmen HT7

Explore point →Yintang EX-HN3
Find the inner end of each eyebrow. Yintang is the midpoint between them, on the centerline of your forehead.
Explore point →Fengchi GB20
Place your fingertips at the base of your skull. Move slightly outward from the center of your neck and feel for the soft hollow where the neck muscles meet the skull. GB20 is in that hollow on each side.
Explore point →Houxi SI3
Make a loose fist. On the little-finger side of your hand, find the crease that reaches the outer edge of your palm just behind the little-finger knuckle. SI3 sits in the small hollow at the end of that crease, just toward the wrist from the knuckle.
Explore point →Zusanli ST36
Sit comfortably with your knee bent. ST36 is on the front-outside of your lower leg, below the knee. As a rough guide, its level is often around four of your own finger-widths below the lower edge of the kneecap.
Explore point →Zanzhu BL2
