✨ The Three Dantians — Jing, Qi & Shen ✨
Today we’re exploring the three dantians — the main energy centers in the body according to Chinese Medicine and Qi Gong.
These are often confused with chakras, but they come from a completely different tradition with a different purpose.
Where chakras are described as spinning centers connected to psychological themes, the dantians are functional.
They store, refine, and transform energy.
They’re not wheels — they’re alchemy.
💠 Important distinction:
The dantians are not chakras.
• Chakras belong to the Indian yogic system; dantians belong to Daoist internal alchemy.
• Dantians store, gather, and transform energy — think of them as batteries rather than spinning wheels.
• They follow a clear progression: Jing → Qi → Shen.
• This system is structural and functional, not psychological.
