Physically, the pericardium is the outer protective layer around the heart which is a little left of centre in the chest. Energetically, the pericardium acts as a buffer to protect the heart physically and psychologically. It’s very closely connected to the heart, so many indications and functions are similar. The heart is particularly important because it stores the Shen or “spirit” and it helps to regulate the mind. The triple warmer, also called the San Jiao or triple burner, is a concept unique to TCM, demonstrating the fundamental holistic concept of the physiological body. On a physical level, it is associated with the endocrine system, responsible for circulating vital-energy, blood, fluids, and hormones throughout the body. The triple warmer meridian controls our fight, flight or freeze response. When these meridians are in a state of disharmony, fatigue, blood sugar instability and stress may experienced.
