The Figure 8s, often attributed to Tibetan medicine, are an energetic system in the body, similar to meridians and chakras. This is a lesser known system, and it’s incredibly powerful. Originally, Touch for Health looked at eight Figure 8s, three on the front of the body, three on the back, one at the top of the head and one at the base of the spine (usually checked at the feet). In other systems, six more Figure 8s are accessed – three on each side of the body. In reality, there are Figure 8s all over the body – so it is very much dependent on what and where you’re balancing to determine the size and position of the Figure 8, as well as what direction to balance it with. They are used extensively in the IWFT and Holographic Explorer series of trainings.
