Spirit of the Points

A Living Practice

The Daily Practice

Each card is a doorway, not just into insight, but into a living practice of returning to yourself.

Step One

Draw

Each morning, or whenever you feel the pull, draw a card.
The card that comes carries the name of an acupuncture point, illustrated artwork, and a passage written as if the point itself is speaking directly to you.

Step Two

Enter the Meditation

Scan the QR code and step into a private space where each point opens fully.
Guided meditations, breathwork, yin yoga, visualization, and more. Accessible immediately.

Step Three

Live the Ritual

Every card arrives with a grounding practice for your day — simple, embodied, real. A way of letting the wisdom bring more meaning to ordinary life.

Step Four

Join the Circle

Inside the private community, you'll find others walking this path alongside you, sharing what surfaces, asking questions, and going deeper. Join Suzanne for live Sunday Circle gatherings to pull a card, meditate together, and set intentions for the week ahead. This practice is powerful alone. It's even richer together.

Why I Made This

A Personal Offering

For more than twenty years, I have lived inside the questions that Taoism, yoga, and meditation ask of us. How do we stay open when life breaks us? How do we move with what is, rather than against it? How do we remain present to our own lives?

When I trained as an acupuncturist, I found that Chinese medicine was asking the same questions, only its insights were mapped into the body itself. Into a living system that had been listening to what it means to be human for thousands of years.

I began writing this deck while sitting beside my father as he was dying.

There were days when I didn't know how to be in that room and not fall apart completely. The grief would rise and I had nowhere to put it. I felt the helplessness of loving someone I could not help.

During those weeks, certain acupuncture points kept coming to me—Spirit Storehouse, Gate of Hope, Wail of Grief. They became quiet companions, not answers but presences. They showed me how to stay open when everything in me wanted to close.

Point by point, I wrote my way through loss.

What began as a personal practice became this.

The Spirit of the Points held me close to my own center when everything else was shifting. Now it is my heart's offering to you.

— Suzanne Spiegel, Author

“Suzanne writes like a modern mystic. This deck is one to place alongside one’s beloved texts and generously pass out to all one’s friends.”
— Sarah Powers, author of Insight Yoga and renowned teacher of yoga and meditation

What Makes This Different

The Card Opens the Door.
The Meditation Helps You Walk Through It.

Over the years in my practice, I began guiding my patients into meditation while the needles rested in their points. Alongside everything we talked about, I offered a gentle, spacious invitation into the living quality, the spirit, of the treatment itself.

The result was a quality of change that went deeper than needles alone. The meditation helped my patients attune to the shift unfolding within them and experience the wisdom of the treatment more fully.

I built Spirit of the Points around that same discovery. Every card is paired with a guided meditation, not to explain the wisdom, but to help you experience it for yourself.

Each card invites you into a point: a quality of attention, an ancient intelligence, a different way of meeting your life.

The guided meditation that accompanies every card is designed to do what meditation did in my treatment room: help you drop in. To move from reading about the wisdom to actually feeling it move through you.

Taoist wisdom was always meant to be lived. In the body. In the breath. In the texture of ordinary days.

That's what this system makes possible.
Not just for the people who can lie on my treatment table.
Now, for anyone.

Amidst Elegance

Yin Valley

Through the Valley

Kidney · 26 · Water

Amidst Elegance

Before mirrors.
Before roles.
Before striving,
you were already radiant.

Not polished.
Not perfected.
Radiant with an unrepeatable aliveness and beauty that only you carry.

In Chinese Medicine, the Kidneys are the wellspring of your vitality. The essence you brought into this life. Potent. Inherent. Never asking permission. Unmistakably you.

But the world teaches performance. It teaches you to behave. To be nice. Predictable. Pliable. Pretty. To smooth out your wildness. To flatten your instincts. To cut away the parts of you that don’t fit the mold.

And when you contort to belong, your spirit contracts too.

You are not here to be pleasing. You are here to embody zest. You are here to be real.

Streaked by sun. Hair tousled by wind. Too alive to be contained.

In Taoism, this is Ziran: naturalness. A tree doesn’t apologize for its crooked branches. A river doesn’t rehearse its course. Each radiates a beauty that cannot be manufactured.

So do you, when you stop performing and start simply being.

Let your true nature move through you spontaneously, unrehearsed.
Wild soul, your beauty lives in your rawness.
Your rhythm. Your truth.

You are most radiant when you are most yourself.

✦

Daily Ritual

Being Unpolished

Today, choose to show up oriented toward what feels right and true to you. Wear something that feels good on your body, not something chosen to impress or disappear. Move at your natural pace. Let your voice sound like your own, without softening or performing.

As you move through the day, notice when the impulse to perform arises — overexplaining, smoothing your words, rushing to be agreeable, or presenting a version of yourself that feels safer than true. When you notice it, pause. Take one breath. Ask yourself what feels honest to say or do, from your body, not from habit.

You do not need to correct yourself into being acceptable. You can be kind and tactful without abandoning what is true. Give yourself permission to not be liked by everyone.

At the end of the day, reflect briefly: Where did you stop adjusting? What changed when you allowed yourself to be seen as you are?

Yin Valley

Yin Gu

Soften into slowness. Savor the ordinary miracle of being alive.

Life’s most precious gifts cannot be chased or forced. They reveal themselves when you slow down enough to receive.

In a world that glorifies more — more doing, more striving, more accumulation — it is easy to forget what you came here for. But the faster you move, the more you miss. What you are truly seeking is not out ahead of you. It is already here, inside this moment.

There’s always an opening to pause. To listen. To feel your own heartbeat.

Slowness may feel uncomfortable at first. Sitting beside a lake, doing nothing, you might feel restless, your mind reaching for distraction. That’s okay. Let it come. Let it pass.

In Chinese medicine, anxiety and restlessness often arise when the Kidneys are depleted. Returning to stillness begins to restore them. As the mind-body settles, those reserves gather again.

Let discomfort flutter through you like snow falling onto an open, quiet field. In staying, the breath deepens, tension softens, anchored presence returns.

When you stop chasing the next moment and return to this one, you remember why you are here. Not to perform. Not to perfect. But to feel. To marvel. To love. To be.

✦

Daily Ritual

Savoring Stillness

Today, take 5–15 minutes to sit with something worth savoring: a warm cup of tea, your dog resting beside you, the warmth of sunlight on your skin.

Do nothing else. Just be there, taking it in.

If restlessness arises, or if strong feelings surface around doing nothing, stay curious. Notice what shows up. Let it reveal what you’ve been carrying.

Through the Valley

Fu Tong Gu

Life moves in cycles. Yin to Yang. Light to dark. Inhale to exhale. This constant interplay shapes your existence.

Periods of joy give way to edges: loneliness, anxiety, grief. Not as disruptions, but as part of life’s natural rhythm.

Just as dawn gives way to dusk, yang’s outward reach is always followed by yin’s return inward, calling you home to yourself.

There’s a reflex to push discomfort away. To tense against sadness. To reject what feels too raw. But when you soften — when you let the waves rise and fall without resistance — something shifts.

You begin to cultivate the kind of compassion that can hold pain without judgment. Water teaches this.

Winter is the season of depth, stillness, and emotional truth. The Kidneys hold your capacity to be with what’s hard. They whisper: you don’t have to fix this. You only have to stay.

Stay with what’s raw. Stay with what’s rising. And let it move, like a tide returning to the sea.

When you make room for what once felt unbearable, expansion returns. Joy blooms through the grace of allowing.

✦

Daily Ritual

In Compassion

Today, let compassion guide the way you meet yourself and the world.

When difficult emotions or situations arise, pause. Feel into your body and ask: What would it feel like to meet this moment with an open, friendly heart, rather than with judgment or resistance?

You don’t need to change anything. Simply notice what shifts in you when you soften.

At the end of the day, take a few minutes to journal: How did this shift the tone of your thoughts, emotions, or interactions? What did you notice about yourself or others when compassion was at the forefront?
