(Episode 5/21)Reset Your Hormones & Energy Flow
Day 5 · Unblock Your San Jiao Meridian
99% of people dealing with thyroid imbalance, blood sugar swings, migraines share one hidden pattern: a stressed San Jiao (Triple Burner) meridian.
In TCM, the San Jiao governs your fluid metabolism, endocrine balance, and emotional flow.
When it’s blocked, your energy feels “jammed”.
The good news? You can clear this meridian and help your body heal itself.
Today we’re working on four key acupressure points — in a fixed order only (don’t switch the sequence):
Si Du (TE9 / SJ9) — “Release the Pressure Valve”
📍 Two finger-widths below the elbow crease on the outer arm
Gently tap or press — this point begins clearing stuck Qi along the upper San Jiao pathway.
Xiao Luo (TE12 / SJ12) — “Unstick Emotional Stress”
📍 On the outer arm, just below the midpoint of the upper arm bone (humerus)
Great for low mood, emotional stagnation, breast tenderness from stress.
Yi Feng (TE17 / SJ17) — “Calm Your Head & Ears”
📍 Behind the ear: find the prominent bone, then the soft slanted hollow right below it
Helps with migraines, tinnitus, jaw tension, and nervous system overload.
Jiao Sun (TE20 / SJ20) — “Lift the Fog”
📍 Fold your ear — the point directly above the highest fold is Jiao Sun
Helps release migraine and head tension, improves mental clarity, and regulates hormonal flow.
Apply firm-but-comfortable pressure.
If the points feel sore or achy — good. That soreness is the blockage leaving your body.
Do this routine twice a day. In about a week, your energy may feel lighter, clearer, and more stable.
If you have the Originature gua sha tool, use gentle tapping or sweeping strokes — the far infrared minerals help move Qi faster. And a thin layer of Originature body oil reduces friction and improves circulation.
Your hormones respond to your lifestyle.These four points help you recover faster — after stress, anger, late nights, or emotional overwhelm.

The San Jiao Meridian, also known as the Triple Burner, is a vital pathway in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) responsible for regulating fluid metabolism, endocrine functions, and emotional balance. Blockages in this meridian often manifest as symptoms including thyroid imbalances, erratic blood sugar, migraines, and feelings of mental fog and fatigue. Clearing the San Jiao pathway through acupressure is a natural, non-invasive method to restore your body’s energy flow or Qi. By applying firm but comfortable pressure on specific acupressure points—Si Du (TE9/SJ9), Xiao Luo (TE12/SJ12), Yi Feng (TE17/SJ17), and Jiao Sun (TE20/SJ20)—you stimulate the body’s own healing mechanisms. Each point targets different aspects, such as releasing built-up tension, unlocking emotional stress, calming headaches and tinnitus, and lifting mental fog. Performing this routine twice daily can lead to noticeable improvements within a week, including stabilized energy, enhanced hormonal regulation, and relief from stress-related symptoms. It’s also important to note that soreness or achiness when pressing these points indicates the release of blockages, which is a positive sign of progress. Using tools like gua sha with far infrared minerals can further enhance the flow of Qi, helping the body detoxify and rejuvenate more rapidly. Additionally, applying oils specifically formulated for bodywork reduces friction, making the process more comfortable and effective. This holistic approach aligns your hormonal health with lifestyle factors, offering support after challenging times such as emotional overwhelm, late nights, and acute stress. For those dealing with thyroid issues or migrainous headaches, integrating San Jiao meridian work into daily care routines offers a promising path toward natural healing and improved wellbeing. Remember to maintain consistency and approach this practice with mindfulness. Over time, you’ll likely experience not only physical benefits but also improved emotional resilience and mental clarity, fostering a balanced and energized state as part of your overall self-care journey.
