Bao Mai: Wisdom Of The Heart Womb Connection

Are you aware of the connection between the heart and the womb?

Ever missed a period when you’ve been stressed?

Stress can make periods irregular, cause PMS, increased pain - and it also impacts subfertility. 

These 2 body parts are inextricably linked, and the functioning of one depends on the other.

In Taoist wisdom & Traditional Chinese Medicine, there’s a special channel or meridian that connects the heart and womb called the Bao Mai. It translates as Uterus Vessel.

It's believed to be part of the Chong Mai, one of the extraordinary vessels - often viewed as the 'blueprint' and how we build our lives, ultimately influencing our destiny. Chong translates as the sea of blood, beginning at the uterus. 

The heart is the home of your spirit, your consciousness and motivation.

If the energy is too high in the heart it can result in anxiety, the feeling of racing/always being on the go, sleep disturbances.

If the energy is too low it means a lack of joy and passion in your life, and being easily hurt in relationships. 

The heart and by extension the breasts, are where we embody love and joy. 

The womb is known as a woman’s second heart, it’s an enclosed fleshy organ with thick muscular walls, and when it contracts it too can expel blood.

Taoist adepts viewed this container as a special space to meditate and amplify energy. It's a place of creation - of not just physical life, but also artistry & visionary projects. It’s another portal to the spiritual self. 

In order for menstruation or conception to happen, the Bao Mai should be open and unobstructed. 

In peri & menopause, it’s important to maintain the heart /uterus connection to avoid hot flushes and anxiety. In this stage of life the womb evolves into an oasis to design your life from your spiritual/authentic self. 

Gentle practices with the Bao Mai can be used by pregnant women to connect with their developing baby.
