This acupoint is essential for those seeking to alleviate the burdens of modern life and achieve a harmonious existence.

SP 21 Dabao – 大包 “Great Wrapping” or “General Control”

This is not just any point. It is the Grand Luo-Connecting Point of the Spleen. In practical terms, this means it is a massive intersection where the Spleen meridian branches out to connect with and influence every other meridian in the body.

Tapping here is like accessing a central hub for your entire energy network.

The Profound Benefits of Tapping SP 21 Dabao

1. The Master Point for Releasing Stored Emotional Trauma

This is its primary and most powerful function. The Spleen, in TCM, is associated with the energy of worry, overthinking, and rumination. SP 21 is where all that “stuck” mental and emotional energy accumulates in the body.

• It is the body’s “junk drawer” for unresolved emotional energy. Tapping here is like opening the drawer and shaking everything out, allowing it to be released.
• It is exceptionally effective for letting go of anxiety, chronic worry, and the “heavy burden” you feel you’ve been carrying for years.

2. The “Whole Body” Ache and Pain Reliever

As the Great Luo point, its job is to regulate the energy and blood in all the channels. When it is blocked, a specific symptom occurs: generalized, full-body aches and pain that seem to move around or have no clear origin.

• Tapping SP 21 is the direct remedy for this “whole-body” pain and a feeling of generalized weakness or fatigue.

3. The Chest and Diaphragm Relaxer

The area it influences includes the lateral costal region (sides of the ribs) and the diaphragm.

• It helps release that tight, constricted feeling in the chest and ribs that comes from stress, grief, or un-cried tears. It facilitates deeper, easier breathing.

4. The Connector to the Arms and Legs

Because it connects to all the channels, it helps with the free flow of energy to the limbs.

• It can help alleviate weakness or pain in the limbs, especially when it feels like your “core” energy isn’t reaching your extremities.

How to Use SP 21: A Practical Guide

Location:

On the left side of the body, on the mid-axillary line (the line running straight down from the middle of your armpit), in the 6th intercostal space (the gap between the 6th and 7th ribs). It is typically the most tender spot in that general area.

Tapping & MTT Protocol:

1. Find the Point: Sit or stand. Raise your left arm slightly. Use your right hand to feel along your left side, about halfway down your rib cage, until you find a particularly tender or sensitive spot.
2. The Tapping & Dialogue: Tap firmly on this spot with your fingertips while stating the following (choose the one that resonates):
• For General Emotional Release: “Even though I carry this heavy burden of worry and old pain, I now release it all. I let go of what is not mine to carry.”
• For Full-Body Aches: “Even though my whole body aches with stagnant energy, I now command the Great Luo point to open. Energy and blood flow freely to every cell.”
• For Chest Tightness/Anxiety: “Even though my chest is tight and I can’t breathe deeply, I now release the constriction. I allow my breath to be full and easy.”
3. The Command: Take a deep, full breath into the area you’re tapping. On the exhale, state your final command:
• “All channels open. Burdens released. Energy flowing freely. Execute.”
