Anxiety and Stress -- A Chinese Herbal Prescription (8)
ANXIETY and STRESS - - A Chinese herbal prescriptionAs 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) LiverBai Shao 白 芍Gou Qi Zi 枸 杞 子2) LungsBai He 百 合Jie Gen 桔 梗3) HeartZao Ren 棗 仁Wu Wei Zi 五 味 子4) StomachBai Zhu 白 朮Dang Shen 党 參5) KidneysQian 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.www.herbsandtea.com Click the Askjohn button to pose a question.Herbal capsules or concentrates can be tailor-made for your conditions.

You drink one cup a day for 2 weeks initially to see if it helps. Then wait for a week or so to see how you do without the tea. If you do better, you may not have to drink it until you slide back into the previous condition.If you cannot see any difference. You may have to continue drinking and see if the tea will bring any good results. The ingredients will have to be changed to bring you better results.
