Movement, Muscles & Meridians: the hip superficial front line & Stomach meridian These meridians run centrally down the torso but at the hip jog laterally. As I see it, this is the body’s accommodation and distribution of weight from our central core and torso dividing into our two legs. We have the two poles of our spine defining greatly important structures that protect our central nervous system, but when we stand upright on two feet, our poles shift. When bipedal, the importance of the feet and distribution of weight to the feet increases. If we were on all fours, it would be less of a thing and so many things would be different. We are now evolving or devolving depending upon one’s perspective with the use of chairs. Hips are regularly flexed partially but never fully flexed and the relationship with the ground and earth is dwindling. I was trying to find Anatomy that explained this jog as there is an absence of myofascia between the hip and pubic acupoints, but then I did a squat. Try it out. Place your hands and fingers on your anterior hip and pubic bone, then squat. What happens?? There’s a natural line of connectivity. I find it extremely odd, just to add, that so much of Anatomy is in text books or on cadavers when we all have our own Anatomical study guides, our very own bodies. Get into it! Get curious.
