As you continue to deepen your meditation, focus on the areas of your body associated with the acupuncture points that support your well-being in the face of food-induced hives.

Locate LI11, known as Quchi, situated at the outer elbow crease. This point helps to clear heat from the body, alleviating the discomfort of welts and itching. Visualize warmth and clarity radiating from this point, bringing relief to your skin.

Next, find SP10, called Xuehai, located on the inner thigh, about two finger widths above the knee. This point invigorates the blood, promoting circulation and healing. Imagine a gentle flow of energy nourishing your skin, reducing irritation and enhancing your body's natural balance.

Now, turn your attention to ST36, known as Zusanli, located about four finger widths below the kneecap, one finger width to the outside of the shinbone. This point strengthens digestion, supporting your body's ability to process food without adverse reactions. Picture a comforting warmth emanating from ST36, grounding and stabilizing your digestion.

Finally, connect with BL13, or Feishu, found on the back, approximately one and a half finger widths from the spine, at the level of the lower back. This point supports the lungs, enhancing your overall vitality and resilience. Envision a soothing breath flowing in and out, invigorating your lungs and promoting harmony within.

As you breathe deeply, allow the energy from these points to harmonize, creating a flow of balance and tranquility throughout your body. Visualize the welts and itching gently dissipating, replaced by a serene sense of well-being. Each inhalation brings in healing energy, while each exhalation releases discomfort.

With each breath, embrace this natural healing process, allowing your body to return to its perfect, normal state. Trust in the wisdom of these points and the balance they bring, fostering a sense of calm and restoration within you.
