Under the guidance of ancient saints, they were all called virtual evil thieves, sometimes avoiding them, being indifferent, obeying the true qi, hiding the spirit inside, and preventing diseases.

-Huangdi Neijing

In Huangdi Neijing, it is clearly put forward that we should pay attention to both internal and external health preservation rules in preventing diseases: in the body, we should avoid evil spirits and thieves; In your heart, you should be calm and empty, and hide your spirit inside.

Many times, we only see one person's emotions. He is angry, crying, helpless, annoyed, happy and excited ... but we don't go into the content of his emotions.

Emotion is a comprehensive product of one's growth environment, family environment, social cognition, life cognition and one's own physique. The occurrence of most diseases is inseparable from emotions.

Too much desire from the outside world, ignoring the internal defense of the spirit, will lead to various emotional ups and downs.

Chinese medicine is good for treating emotional diseases!

Wang Yangming emphasized the unity of knowledge and action. He once wrote a poem: "Everyone has his own needle, and the root of everything is always in his heart. But I looked down with a smile and found it outside the branches and leaves. This sentence is used to describe all kinds of people who are confused by troubles.

When I treat emotional diseases and depression in clinic, I communicate with patients more and listen to the root of their inner troubles.

Through years of clinical experience, I found that most patients with emotional disorders have a common phenomenon, that is, the acquired cognitive values brought by the educational environment and growth environment of the family have a direct conflict with people's own nature, which leads to emotional collapse.

Traditional Chinese medicine has its own unique methods in the diagnosis and treatment of emotional diseases and depression.

Huangdi Neijing said: "Happiness is painful, and acupuncture is the cure; If the shape is not enough, then make the taste. In other words, when a person has no physical problems and emotional problems at the physical level, acupuncture is used to reconcile qi and blood and dredge meridians for treatment; When a person's qi and blood loss is serious, which leads to depression, he is treated with decoction to replenish qi and blood.

Below, I will share a case of treating emotional diseases with acupuncture.

When you are shocked, you will be calm.

-skillfully using acupuncture to treat emotional strange diseases

At the end of 2020, I went to Shenzhen for a round trip, which coincided with the invitation of friends to exchange knowledge of Chinese medicine and music.

On that day, there were six people at a table. After greeting, a man sitting next to me began to say, I just finished all kinds of physical examinations of western medicine. I wonder how Chinese medicine diagnoses diseases.

At this time, I said, "Chinese medicine diagnoses diseases by observing, listening and asking questions, and exploring the ups and downs of human qi, blood and viscera and the location of diseases and pathogens." For example, your lips are chapped and red, and there is red blood in the corner of your eye, which shows that you are always full of enthusiasm; The wife around you has eye bags under her eyelids and a purse behind her neck, which is caused by phlegm-dampness trapping the spleen, because in the main spine of the spleen, after spleen-dampness trapping the meridians, Yang can't grow up, and the back spine is trapped by phlegm-dampness and yin, and over time, a purse appears; The lady sitting next to your wife is a typical disharmony between liver and spleen, and her mood is easy to be anxious, because her nose is dark in color and belongs to the spleen, indicating that her temper is stagnant and she is not relaxed. 」

When I said this, everyone nodded yes.

The man next to him immediately asked a question: "To tell you the truth, Dr. Xu, I really have a bad liver and gallbladder. I have a strange disease, which has followed me for twenty years, and I can't see anywhere clearly. Twenty years ago, due to special work reasons, important documents must be carried with you and must not be mistaken. Once, my assistant called me and told me that an important document was missing. I was shocked and nervous at that time. Since then, every time I get off the bus, as soon as I hear the door ring, I still have to look back to see if the door is closed. I wonder what you can do. 」

At this time, I said that I had just learned the knowledge of five-tone therapy recently, and I knew a little, so I might as well give it a try.

I told him that shock belongs to yang, from outside to inside; Fear is yin, born from the inside. Being scared is an accident, because you don't know; Fear is self-conscious.

Foot shaoyang gallbladder meridian belongs to wood, and bravery is brave. Fear is caused by bile damage.

So, I began to feel his pulse, and then asked him if his left Sun Moon acupoint hurt badly. He nodded. Later, I told the others to keep quiet and let the man sit on a high wooden stool.

First, give him acupuncture at the blocked points such as Riyue Point and Taixi Point, tell him to close his eyes and relax, and let him imagine the panic scene when closing the car door. At this time, I took out the bamboo board for tea borrowed from my friend earlier and slammed it at the bottom of the high stool. Suddenly, the man got a cold war, his palms began to sweat, and his body began to heat up gradually.

Subsequently, I knocked on the patient's back, front, left and right with a wooden board several times in a row.

The patient began to describe his feelings and said, "Now I feel that there is an air column downward from the left Sun Moon point and an air column upward from the ankle Taixi point, which makes people feel particularly comfortable and the body begins to sweat slightly. 」

People nearby asked curiously, "What kind of treatment is this? 」

So, I told them: "This is the application of acupuncture five-tone therapy in Huangdi Neijing. After bravery is injured by panic, the spirit will be higher and higher. After acupuncture, the patient's spirit will be adducted. Knocking on the table from below at this time will make the patient's mind look down. The wooden sound of Huangdi Neijing is in the liver and gallbladder, so the sound of knocking and hitting with bamboo boards can recover the spirit of going to Vietnam. Then tap in all directions of the body to make the panicked person adapt to this sound, and the breathing will calm down. Calm down is to adapt as usual, so that he won't panic when he meets again. 」

Finally, I told the patient to kneel for a month and sit for half an hour every day to consolidate the curative effect.

Understand the emotional roots, mind and body in tune.

Every spring, many people are troubled by these questions:

1. It is difficult to fall asleep at night, feel groggy during the day, and wake up with a bitter taste;

2. My eyes are dull, and I often feel dry, red and swollen, painful and prone to congestion;

3. Feel chest tightness, palpitation and palpitation for no reason;

4. The temper becomes grumpy, and trivial things will also get angry; Or inexplicable depression, anxiety and depression, memory loss. ...

If there are similar manifestations, it is necessary to consider that there is a problem with the drainage of the liver, which has induced emotional diseases.

People living in the world, no one can be completely without emotions. At this time, we should vent our emotions as soon as possible and restore a peaceful mind. Otherwise, bad emotions may turn into blood stasis and form tangible things, which are often called nodules or tumors.
