Anxiety and Stress — A Chinese Herbal Prescription (8)

June 13th, 2010 -- Posted in herbs for anxiety | 20 Comments »

ANXIETY and STRESS – - A Chinese herbal prescription As you know, anxiety is a complicated condition brought on by various problems of life. It would be nice if I could write a prescription to make all your problems go away. However, you know that I don’t have that kind of power, especially in financial matters, personal relationships, job security, or business dealings. Nevertheless, I can help you reduce the physical stress that anxiety brings. Anxiety throws your body out of balance. As a result, various physical problems tend to surface and resurface, such as indigestion, overeating, sleep difficulty, migraines, skin rash, burst of temper, energy drain, etc. The prescription should help your body achieve the balance that has been lost. How? Balance is a delicate thing. You can only restore it by gently nourishing the major organs back to their normal conditions. When they become stronger, they will be able to find their own way to balance without you having to tell them how. As a result, you will feel much better overall. The Chinese approach to anxiety is to nourish, moisten, and soothe. The word is 潤, pronounced as “ren”, for which I cannot find an English word similar in meaning. The prescription should basically be a combination of gentle nourishing for all major organs and the Yin. 1) Liver Bai Shao 白芍Gou Qi Zi 枸杞子2) Lungs Bai He 百合Jie Gen 桔梗3) Heart Zao Ren 棗仁Wu Wei Zi 五味子4) Stomach Bai Zhu 白朮Dang Shen 党參5) Kidneys Qian Shi 芡實Jin Qian Cao

Chinese Diagnostic Illustrations, Part One (41)

December 9th, 2009 -- Posted in anxiety herbs | No Comments »

Chinese Diagnostic Illustrations, Part I

This video illustrates how Chinese diagnosis is done for various common ailments. It follows from my previous video entitled, “A Practical Road Map”. In case you forget, the requirements of diagnosis are: objectivity, rationality, and connection to the herbs.

Fever or flu
Fever or flu has many observable symptoms. It is not hard to connect the diagnostic result to the herbs. Various kinds of herbs exist for conditions such as excess heat in the body, cough, phlegm, sore throat, headache, etc. The only difficulty is to determine how strong the prescription should be. You must rely on pulse reading and your reasoning to arrive at the appropriate strength of the herbal prescription. A person with a weak constitution like a senior must be given a mild prescription rather than a strong one. For further details, see my other videos, “Flu or Cold” and “Cough”.

Cholesterol or Blood Sugar
How can you diagnose high cholesterol or blood sugar with Chinese ancient methods? You just cant. Cholesterol and sugar are chemical substances in the blood that can only be detected in a blood test, which is a Western method. The Chinese herbalist has to rely on the results of the blood test to see and monitor the problem.

How can you connect to the herbs? The names cholesterol and blood sugar dont connect of course. You must apply simple reasoning of cause and effect. Cholesterol and sugar are present in the food you eat. This points to the digestive system where plenty of herbs can be applied. If the digestive system is strengthened or made more robust with herbs, it will break down the food more thoroughly. In this way, the cholesterol and sugar will be broken down and expelled, rather than staying in the blood stream. Your reasoning also points to higher metabolism to break down cholesterol and blood sugar. This connects to the herbs used to boost blood circulation. For further details, please see “Basic Healing Approaches of Chinese Medicine”.

Toxins
The toxins in your blood are only observable when the threshold level is reached. The problem will manifest itself ranging from a minor skin rash, to a serious one like cancer. Chinese diagnosis cannot detect anything below the threshold point without relying on Western blood or other tests. Furthermore, it cannot tell what kind of toxin or chemical substance is present in the blood. No specific toxin can connect to a Chinese herb. However, there exist various kinds of cleansing herbs to purge toxins from the body. So Chinese herbs are toxin general, not toxin specific.

How can Chinese diagnosis work then? Again, you rely on the Western blood test to verify and monitor. Then you apply the simple reason of cause and effect. For prevention, stay away from polluted areas and polluted food. For treatment, apply various kinds of cleansing herbs to reduce the toxicity in your body. In addition, apply herbs to strengthen the liver and kidneys, because they are major cleansing organs of the body. For further details, see my video on “Detoxification”.

Anxiety, Stress, Sleeplessness
This trio usually comes together. They present a variety of subtle symptoms, which are hard to detect and measure. Chinese diagnostic methods emphasize discussing with the patient about his lifestyle and attitude, and about the kind of stress that he is dealing with everyday.

From the Chinese viewpoint, anxiety, stress and sleeplessness are the result of a loss of balance, which in turn results from a weak body that fails to readjust itself and maintain balance in difficult situations. This points to the necessity to strengthen the body for better performance. However, too strong a strengthening prescription may bring an opposite effect. Therefore, the job of the herbalist is to tailor a mild prescription to make the body more robust to handle everyday stress. Please see my other videos on “Anxiety and Stress”, “Sleep”, and “Balance”.

Anxiety and Stress — A Chinese Herbal Prescription (8)

November 14th, 2009 -- Posted in herbs for anxiety | 13 Comments »

ANXIETY and STRESS – - A Chinese herbal prescription
As you know, anxiety is a complicated condition brought on by various problems of life. It would be nice if I could write a prescription to make all your problems go away. However, you know that I don’t have that kind of power, especially in financial matters, personal relationships, job security, or business dealings.

Nevertheless, I can help you reduce the physical stress that anxiety brings. Anxiety throws your body out of balance. As a result, various physical problems tend to surface and resurface, such as indigestion, overeating, sleep difficulty, migraines, skin rash, burst of temper, energy drain, etc.

The prescription should help your body achieve the balance that has been lost. How? Balance is a delicate thing. You can only restore it by gently nourishing the major organs back to their normal conditions. When they become stronger, they will be able to find their own way to balance without you having to tell them how. As a result, you will feel much better overall. The Chinese approach to anxiety is to nourish, moisten, and soothe. The word is 潤 , pronounced as “ren”, for which I cannot find an English word similar in meaning.

The prescription should basically be a combination of gentle nourishing for all major organs and the Yin.
1) Liver
Bai Shao 白 芍
Gou Qi Zi 枸 杞 子
2) Lungs
Bai He 百 合
Jie Gen 桔 梗
3) Heart
Zao Ren 棗 仁
Wu Wei Zi 五 味 子
4) Stomach
Bai Zhu 白 朮
Dang Shen 党 參
5) Kidneys
Qian Shi 芡 實
Jin Qian Cao 金 錢 草
6) The Yin
Mai Men Dong 麥 門 冬
Fu Ling 伏 苓
Sheng Di Huang 生 地 黃
A combination of 13 herbs are recommended.

One must be careful not to prescribe strong herbs for fast results. The consequence may be negative. When stronger herbs are used, they generate heat inside the body. Excess heat may make the anxiety worse.

Drink one cup (8 oz) of herb tea a day, preferably in the morning to allow time for dissipation of excess heat and the balancing to work.

This is just one formula with countless variations depending on:
* Your changing condition.
* How weak is your body and where is the weakness.
* How sensitive is your body to the strengthening herbs.
