How to resolve distress from the perspective of TCM?<\/span><\/p>\n

From the perspective of TCM, it is not solely heart, but other organs have also playing an important role to treat distress issue. TCM sees the \u201c5 organs\u201d as a whole complete set, meaning our heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, all work together and related with each other closely. TCM Classic Book \u300a\u9ec4\u5e1d\u5185\u7ecf\u300bhad compared human body as a country, all the 5 organs had been designated a \u201cgovernor\u201d position, depicted the functionality of each of the organ and the relevant relationship among each other.<\/span><\/p>\n

Secondly, heart may refer to our emotional level (i.e. consciousness, thoughts and emotion).<\/span><\/p>\n

As temperature rise, heatiness resulting in the impairment of heart, as a result, causing distress and discomfort. We have to take precaution to protect the heart then. First of all, we must ensure a good and enough daily sleep. From the diet, we suggest to eat red color food and bitter food, for example: red bean, hawthorn, tomato, bitter gourd, lotus seed etc. All these food will help to lessen the heatiness in the heart.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Liver have a close relation to our emotional feeling.<\/span><\/p>\n

We let the liver in a soothing state via a fluent flowing of \u201cQi\u201d and blood circulation. Then one become optimistic and once he\/she get annoyed, they will calm down easily by using the variety way. For instance, when we are in angry emotion, we pronounce a \u201cshhh\u201d sound gently and slowly, until our feeling calm down.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Spleen plays an important role for contemplating, if we are in distress mode, it diminish the functionality of the spleen. When one is over thinking, it depleted blood in the spleen causing exhausted of the spleen. We are encouraging people to see things with a calmful manner when we face trauma situation.

 <\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In order to resolve distress issue, we ought to learn the traits of the 5 organs (heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney) . Hence, we understand that when one organ has impairment, it will affect the neighborhood organ. In long runs, when distress emotion worsening, the effect is hard to heal the distress emotion. On the other hand, when one organ has impairment, we rectify it, and ensure it would not affect the neighborhood organ, so body is reconciled, and the distress emotion was prevented to go worsening.<\/span><\/p>\n
