the kidneys The Qi in your body comes from two main sources. The first source of Qi is inherited from your parents at conception. It is known as the “innate vital substance” and is stored in the kidneys. The second source is derived from essential substances in nature such as the air we breathe, food and water.

Learn More »The term Qi is used in East Asian Medicine, but what does it mean? A lot of people use the word now to reference energy. Someone might say a person has good “Qi.” As an acupuncturist, Qi is something I’m always thinking about. Qi is thought of as the vital life force that flows through the body and is the active principle forming part of any living thing in East Asian Medicine. The Qi in your body comes from two main sources. The first source of Qi is inherited from your parents at conception. It is known as the “innate vital substance” and is stored in the kidneys. The second source is derived from essential substances in nature such as the air we breathe, food and water. Both the inherited and the acquired vital energies are further processed and transformed by the organs. Every organ itself, has it’s own Qi, or vibrational frequency range (measurable electricity) that expresses for a state of proper function or balance. To make the Qi required to live your daily life, the kidneys first send the innate vital substance (inherited Qi) upwards where it combines with food essence derived from the spleen (digestion). It further mixes with the fresh air from the lungs where it finally forms into the Qi of the body. Qi is the source behind all innate intelligence. Think of the information packed into a small seed, which becomes a fully-grown tree. The largest trees were all once small seeds. Qi is the source as well as the potential. In saying Qi is the potential we are getting closer to understanding where Qi comes from. You might say, ok, I get that Qi comes from my parents, but that still doesn’t explain where Qi comes from and the source of Qi. Qi, the source of all things, an innate intelligence that can’t be seen with the naked eye. Qi itself, comes into being from the potential state and transforms into the physical, or physical substance. The potential state can be explained as the unseen intelligence that governs the entire universe. Qi will transform, back and forth from the potential state and physical state. It is the transformation between immaterial and material that is Qi – that spark of potential between both worlds, which unites the world of the material and immaterial is Qi itself. This transformation is happening at a level unseen or acknowledged by our ability to sense reality. This immense energy is all around us, but modern life, stress and electronics separate our awareness from universal Qi. Three ways to align yourself with the Qi of the universe are to perform Qigong, Meditate and receive Acupuncture. All three can help you to get out of your ego and connect to your consciousness.

Bread was a staple in the typical daily diet in the first-century Greco-Roman world, supplemented with limited amounts of local fruits and vegetables, oil, and salt. Bread in first-century Galilee would have been made with wheat or barley flour.
The gospel accounts tell us that Jesus and his disciples ate bread and drank wine at the Last Supper. However, bread and wine probably weren’t the only things on the table. The Last Supper may have been a Passover meal. Passover is when Jews remember their exodus from Egypt. The gospels of Mark, Luke, and Matthew place the meal during the Jewish Passover on the day of Unleavened Bread.* This is the first day of the seven-day Passover celebration. On this day, Jews traditionally traveled to the temple in Jerusalem to sacrifice a Passover lamb. Today, this day of Passover is celebrated in Judaism with the Seder supper. The modern Seder tradition didn’t emerge until the temple in Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 A.D., but Jews in Jesus’s time did share in a Passover meal after making their temple sacrifice. It wouldn’t have looked like a modern Seder, and the historical record of the Passover meal before the Seder tradition is less detailed. But we do know that the Passover meal would have included unleavened bread and likely a roast lamb. So if the Last Supper was a Passover meal, we can probably place those two foods on the table. For a fuller menu, we have to do a bit of guesswork. But in 2016, two Italian archaeologists published a study on what was eaten at the Last Supper that included a reconstructed menu. The two archaeologists drew from Bible verses, Jewish texts, ancient Roman literature, and archaeological data to learn about what people ate in Jerusalem during the first century A.D. Based on their research, they hypothesized that the menu for the Last Supper would have featured bean stew, lamb, bitter herbs, fish sauce, unleavened bread, dates, and aromatized wine.
