There are twelve energy pathways, or meridians, in the human body that connect to specific organs in the body. Chinese medicine believes that each organ has a two hour time period when the Qi is at its peak in that meridian. The Qi flows cyclically in a clockwise rotation like a wave through the meridians. We always pay attention to symptoms that occur repeatedly at specific times because this may be an indication of the organ that is out of balance. For example, waking every night between 1 and 3 a.m. almost always is indicative of a Liver imbalance. The Organ Clock App will show you which organs correspond to which two hour period. The Organ Clock iPhone App lists the periods in which the organs are at their peak Qi. It will display the details for the organ currently at its maximum, including whether it is a Zang or a Fu organ, Yin or Yang, which element the organ belongs to and a short description of the role of the organ according to the traditional chinese medicine and tips on how to behave during that period. You can also browse all organs independent of whether they are at currently their maximum Qi or not. Disclaimer: If you think that you are suffering from an illness, please consult an qualified medical practitioner. Neither the organ clock nor the information about the specific organs can substitute for a qualified anamnesis and diagnosis. The developer of this Application is neither physician nor healer but has compiled freely available information about the organ clock and has published them in this Application.

The details shared in some parts of this guide, can be very difficult to come by, even after studying numerous classic and modern books on the subject. Some of the techniques described in the app contain ancient secrets that haven't been revealed to public until the last 2-3 decades, many of which are still not openly shared even now. This app features a simple and intuitive interface with beautiful natural sound effects of recorded traditional Chinese instruments used by Buddhist monks during meditation, rhythmic sound of a Buddhist wooden block and a Taoist shamanic drum, bells and chimes, sea waves, water stream, a Tibetan singing bowl, as well as, a unique meditation method with a live burning candle. The configurability of the app makes it easy to be used for a variety of meditation methods, and our detailed in-depth instructions will allow you to bypass guided meditation altogether and save you much time that you would spend on researching genuine, reliable meditation techniques.
