Quenching Sweet Cravings with Stomach Channel 44 (the Inner Court)

This could be a quick fix for sweet cravings! Read on and give it a try.

In the traditional view, powerful cravings for sweet food often arise from a sort of heat within the stomach. This heat can often be linked to stress and anxiety, or a history of eating a lot of sweet or greasy foods. These emotions and habits create a vicious cycle of stronger than usual desire for sweet food that fuels the heat to get even stronger, rather than quenching it.

The point Nei Ting is often translated as "Inner Court," and it is by it's nature a very cooling point. It is taught that the point can draw stomach heat downward, and so reduce the urgency of the desire for sweets. The point is located between the big toe and the second toe, just where the two toes join together at the foot.

The next time your sweet tooth is harassing you, try pressing this point on both feet for five minutes each side, and see if it helps quench that fire!
