Flowing Lymph for Long Life (FLLF)

The even, dynamic, and continuous flow of one's lymph serves as an indicator of health. Having dabbled in the healing arts for some years now, I have recently been reminded of the power of lymphatic drainage. In the West, we focus primarily on the flow of blood and diagnose such disorders as high blood pressure, heart disease, and coronary artery disease. Western medicine's focus on the blood overshadows the requisite blood-lymph interchange that truly keeps us alive! 

I can remember many years ago sitting in a lecture by a Living and Raw Foods Specialist... As she discussed countless products for achieving and maintaining optimal health, all I heard were the dollar signs going "cha ching" in her head. She recommended over 30 daily activities important for wellness, and she sold a different product for almost every item on the daily wellness checklist... I thought, "What an amazingly expensive approach to life! Surely only the rich and elite can afford to live [like that]." Yet I also thought, "Money doesn't buy happiness, does it?"

In any case, I recently noticed my lymph nodes were swollen, yet I wasn't outwardly sick. I just had the intuitive sense that something wasn't right-- in fact, something HAD TO BE wrong! I had an engorged lymph node under my tongue. Having recently completed the 4-day Qi Revolution, I was attuned to the importance of the flow of qi [aka chi]. Furthermore, I harkened back to the lecture and the pieces of equipment. I bought several pieces and many have sat somewhere collecting dust.

Fear not, I'm now a renewed believer in the powerful effects of the "chi machine." This simple piece of equipment provides gentle undulations to the spine while you're "at rest"... yet, it provides an awe inspiring aerobic workout that gets the lymph flowing naturally. After only 2 twenty minute sessions on the chi machine, the node under my tongue retracted to its normal size. However, it returned 4 days later as I hadn't continued to use the machine. Then, I quickly got back on the machine when I returned from my 4-day sojourn, and after 2 additional sessions... VOILA... the node was once again balanced.

Such a precise A-B-A-B design to demonstrate the importance of the chi machine... and now, I will continue to use the machine daily to fully effect lymphatic drainage and a balanced blood-lymph interchange, thus effecting natural blood detox. I will journey with my machine on all trips longer than 4 days and spread the word about the power of the chi machine.

For more information about the coolest chi machine available, check out http://www.a1chimachines.com/308-chi-machine.htm. I also currently have 2 for sale-- they've been gently used, but available to you for approximately 1/2 the suggested retail price.
