The Vibrational Living™ Research Institute is the leading organization dedicated to the study of vibrational frequencies, the underlying energy from which all matter is composed, including the human body. By focusing on combining time tested holistic approaches with proven principles of quantum physics, the VLRI has been able to create and develop tools and products that effectively address the 8 common health challenges.  The institute exists to promote further research in the fields of vibrational medicine and Acu-Vibe Technology.

Great strides are being made every day to promoting worldwide awareness of the health benefits living a vibrationally balanced life.  Dr. Drew Karp, medical director of the VLRI is one of the leading aurthorities on vibrational medicine, frequency research and distance healing and his team of researchers, scientists and technicians are dedicated to exploring to help people ways globally live a vibrationally balanced life.

The Vibrational Living Research Institute focuses on several inter-related fields, both ancient and
modern, in order to determine the most effective methods for improving quality of life.

• Vibrational Frequencies
• Quantum Physics
• Nutrition
• Acupuncture
• Applied Kinesiology
• Distance Healing

By incorporating the most important concepts from these scientific branches, significant progress has
already been made towards preventing illness and alleviating symptoms. Through our research and
dedication, we are discovering new cures and preventative measures for a variety of disorders, including:

• Stress
• Aging
• Obesity
• Fatigue
• Poor metabolism

These factors are known to be caused by an imbalance of vibrational frequencies, and our goal is to
use science and technology to combat them. Because of the Vibrational Living Research Institute,
great strides are being made every day to promote world wide awareness of the benefits of living a vibrationally balanced life.

8 Extraordinary Vessels

The eight extraordinary Qi vessels and the twelve primary Qi channels (meridians) comprise the main part of the channel system. Most of the eight vessels branch out from the twelve primary channels and share the function of circulating Qi throughout the body. These vessels form a web of complex interconnections with the channels. At the same time, each has its own functional characteristics and clinical utility independent of the channels. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the twelve primary organ-related channels and only two of the eight vessels (the Governing and the Conception vessels). The other six vessels are not used very often simply because they are not understood as well as the other channels, and there is still a lot of research being conducted on them. Although they were discovered two thousand years ago, little has been written about them. There is a lot of research on the extraordinary vessels being conducted today, especially in Japan, but the results of one researcher often contradict the results that another has achieved.

On this page we would like to compile and summarize the important points from the limited number of available documents. Since references from original Chinese sources are very scarce, and references from Western textbooks are tentative, esoteric, or in disagreement with one another, I have used my own judgement in selecting ideas and details. Before reviewing these eight vessels, we will first define them and then summarize their functions.

What are the Eight Vessels?
The eight vessels are called "Qi Jing Ba Mai." Qi means odd, strange, or mysterious. Jing means meridian or channels. Ba means eight and Mai means vessels. Qi Jing Ba Mai is then trans lated as "Odd Meridians and Eight Vessels" or "Extraordinary Meridians (EM)." "Odd" has a meaning of strange in Chinese. It is used simply because these eight vessels are not well understood yet. Many Chinese doctors explain that they are called "Odd" simply because there are four vessels that are not paired. Since these eight vessels also contribute to the maintenance of homeostasis, some times they are called "Homeostatic Meridians." French acupuncturists call them "Miraculous Meridians" because they were able to create therapeutic effects when all other techniques had failed. In addition, because each of these channels exerts a strong effect upon psychic functioning and individuality, t he command points are among the most important psychological points in the body. For this reason, they are occasionally called "The Eight Psychic Channels."
