Drugs: spleen pills
Access Points: Shen Que (navel)
Methods: take a spleen pills crushed, filled with the navel, and outside the use of medical gauze and medical tape fixed. Paste it at night and remove it in the morning.
Overthinking can injure the spleen, so to treat this type of insomnia, I start by tonifying the spleen.
The Spleen Pill is a famous Chinese medicine that benefits the qi, tonifies the blood, strengthens the spleen and nourishes the heart, and is best suited to treating all the symptoms of spleen injury caused by excessive thinking. When the spleen is well, of course, there will be no insomnia.
The navel is located above the Ren vein, which is called "Shen Que" in Chinese medicine, and it is a very special point. As we all know, before birth, we are through the umbilical cord from the mother's body to receive nutrients, so the Shen Que point is our lifeblood before birth. After birth, the Ren vein leads the yin meridians of the body, which circulates in the center of the chest and abdomen, connecting the heart and lungs, the spleen and stomach, and the liver and kidneys. The Shen Que point is the sea of the meridians of the Ren vein, and is also the root of the five viscera and six bowels, which can regulate the whole body's qi and blood. This means that the medication can be applied to the whole body at the Shen Que point. At the same time, Shen Que is close to the spleen and stomach, I fill in the navel of the spleen pill, a famous medicine in Chinese medicine to replenish the spleen, can quickly regulate the qi of the spleen and stomach, so that people can sleep soundly and sweetly.
For those who are not used to filling the navel with medicine, you can also take the spleen pills orally.
Besides applying the pills externally or taking them orally, you can also take a walk in the park to absorb the freshness of the trees and grasses, which will also help you sleep well. This is because the scent of grass and trees in nature contains the attribute of Xunmu, which can restrain the thoughts belonging to Kuntu and help your spleen and stomach to heal. Treatment of insomnia caused by excessive grief and lung injury
Drugs: wolfberry
Points: the left side of the taiyuan
Methods: buy some wolfberries, take one of them mashed, pasted on the left side of the taiyuan point, outside the use of medical tape fixed. Paste it at night and take it off in the morning.
Excessive sadness first hurts our lungs, and for insomnia caused by this condition, I use the above method to treat it.
Taiyuan point is the original point of the hand taiyin lung meridian, i.e., the place where the lungs gather the most vital energy, that is to say, the lungs qi are all from this point to reach all parts of the body in a continuous flow. Therefore, by applying medicines externally to this point, the lung qi in the meridian can be most effectively induced to return to the lungs to lurk in the lungs, so as to replenish the deficiency of the lung qi.
And the wolfberry is sweet in taste and flat in nature, bright red in color, and in the I Ching, it corresponds to Tui Ze, which is the best choice for tonifying and moistening the lungs. When I put it on the Tai Yuan point, its medicinal properties are able to pass through the conduction of the lung meridian and enter the injured lungs. When the lungs are able to hide the prana, our sleep naturally returns to normal. The treatment of insomnia caused after too much anger and injury to the liver
Drug: mulberry seeds
Points: left Taichong acupoint
Methods: buy some mulberry seeds, take a black, ripe and mashed, pasted on the left Taichong acupoint, outside the use of medical gauze and adhesive tape to fix.
Many friends have had such an experience, there is a fire in the heart can not be sent out, always hold, so the night is insomnia.
This kind of insomnia is caused by anger injuring the liver, and when treating it, you have to replenish the liver first. I usually use the above method.
The Chinese medicine believes that mulberry is sweet and cold, has the effect of tonifying blood and nourishing yin, tonifying the liver and kidneys, etc., and has been widely used since ancient times as a good medicine for converging the liver and qi. And Taichong point is the original point of the foot syncope Yin liver meridian, that is, the liver meridian yuan qi convergence, stay place. Therefore, by applying mulberry seeds externally to Taichong acupoint, I can tonify liver qi, repair the liver, and let the "soul" return to the liver.
Drugs: white ginseng tablets
Points: left Taixi point
Methods: take a small piece of white ginseng, paste it on the left Taixi point, the outside is fixed with medical tape, and paste it at night when you go to sleep, and take it off in the morning.
When people are frightened, they not only have nightmares, but also can't even fall asleep in severe cases. Why? This is because excessive fear makes the kidneys suffer damage, so that "Zhi" can not return to the kidneys. I have treated many cases of similar patients using the above method.
Taixi point is the original point of the foot less yin kidney meridian, which is the place where the kidney's vital energy resides, and it has the function of "nourishing the kidney yin, tonifying the kidney qi, and strengthening the kidney yang". And ginseng is the best way to replenish human vital energy, which is beneficial to all organs, so I usually use white ginseng with Taixi to treat insomnia after "fear of injury to the kidneys".
In fact, not only will excessive emotions prevent the spirit, soul, spirit, mind and will from resting on the five organs and cause insomnia, but also other factors such as external influences, dietary disorders and environmental changes may cause you to have a bad night's sleep. The treatment of insomnia caused by excessive worry and injury to the stomach
Drugs: malt, maitake
Points: left Neiguan point, Shenmen point
Methods: buy some malt and maitake in the pharmacy, take a few maitake (raw and cooked can be), remove the wheat husk, only take the inside of the buds, get crushed, pasted on the left side of the Neiguan point, and then a maitake crushed, paste on the left side of the Shenmen point. Both are pasted before bedtime and removed in the morning.
The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine says, "If your stomach is not in harmony, you will not be able to sleep." If your stomach is impaired due to overeating, irregular eating, or eating cold food, you will be tossing and turning and it will be difficult for you to sleep.
Neiguan is a point on the Pericardium Meridian, which is in charge of the operation of wind qi near the spleen and stomach, and "stomach upset" is mostly due to the disturbance of wind, so through the Neiguan point to transfer the wind qi away, the problem can be solved. Malt strengthens the spleen and opens the stomach. When the two go together, the disordered stomach qi will return to normal.
Maidong nourishes the heart's yin, and the Shenmen point is the original point of the hand-shao yin heart meridian, so putting maidong on the Shenmen point is equivalent to taking a flavor of the Heavenly King's Heart Tonic, which can quickly replenish positive qi for the heart. While the heart is fire, the stomach is earth, fire can produce earth, replenishing the fire qi of the heart is indirectly replenishing the stomach. After driving away the wind that attacks the stomach, replenish the stomach qi in a hurry, so that the stomach will return to normal, and once the stomach is harmonized, the sleeper will naturally be at peace.

If you have too much fire in your body and are often restless, or have insomnia caused by flu fever, then I recommend the above method.
This kind of insomnia is caused by the flow of fire qi that is supposed to run in the gall bladder meridian and the San Jiao meridian running into the heart meridian. Therefore, the treatment should, on the one hand, restrain the fire qi so that it returns to the home meridians (Gallbladder and Sanjiao meridians) and, on the other hand, regulate the imbalanced Heart qi.
Yang Fu point is a meridian point of the foot Shaoyang gallbladder meridian, and the fire qi running in the gallbladder meridian is the main cause of insomnia. Lotus leaves are fire-dispersing, and when applied to the right Yangfu point, they are a perfect way to dissipate this excessive fire that is causing trouble.
It has already been mentioned, the maitake paste Shenmen can replenish the heart qi, heart qi enough, the spirit can listen to the heart control, insomnia will be cured.
It is also possible to get a bad night's sleep due to colds and winds. I once met such a patient, not only the cold and wind is not healed, even sleep has become a difficult thing, how can not sleep every day. So I prescribed Gui Zhi Tang for her, and she got well after only one post.
The typical accompanying symptom of insomnia caused by wind is sweating, so if you have had wind one day and are sweating and have insomnia, then you might want to try Gui Zhi Tang. In addition, this kind of insomnia is caused by the spleen being injured by the wind, and the mind is not resting on the spleen, so the treatment of insomnia caused by overthinking and injuring the spleen is also effective.
