Opening the Heart with Sheng Zhen Meditation & Stillness - with Jing Li To feel at ease and worry free is everyones wish. We're all seeking deeper meaning in life and lasting happiness. Most people are seeking for ways in the outer world in which to be healthy and happy; however, if we would seek internally instead  turning to the Heart, it is possible to tap into the deep and lasting contentment that resides there - in all of us. Sheng Zhen meditation leads practitioners to the innermost place  the Heart. The use here of a capital H is to indicate that knowledge of the Heart in Chinese life and culture is not identical to what native English speakers refer to as the heart:  In Chinese culture, Heart is the master of all the internal organs (Neijing  Suwen, chapter 8; and Neijing  Lingshu, chapter 71)  The Heart is the seat of all emotions (Zhang, 1642; Li et al., 2013)  The Heart  is in control of the mind. (Neijing Suwen, chapter 9)  The soul resides in the Heartsee Chinese word (Li et al., 2013) Jing Li is the gifted daughter of Master Junfeng Li, renowned founder of the Sheng Zhen Society
