As soon as you close your eyes, the boss’s urging, the customer’s indifference, the partner’s procrastination... keep appearing in front of your eyes. Well, in short, when you are in a bad mood, insomnia is your old friend. Didn't he come to your door again?
The famous Chinese medicine teacher Luo Dalun specially introduces a foot soaking prescription to see if it applies to you and your friends.
Insomnia caused by poor mood
A lady who flew from Urumqi to see a doctor once said that she had not slept for half a year. I said it was impossible, because if a person does not sleep, It was due to collapse in a few days. Many insomnia patients claim that they have not slept for several days. Medical experts have conducted instrumental tests on them and found that they have actually slept to varying degrees, but they have no memory.
This lady, I judged that she was in a bad mood at that time. I judged that it was caused by emotions. Traditional Chinese medicine calls it liver qi dissatisfaction, so I suggested that she use Zhang Zhongjing’s prescription: Bupleurum plus dragon bone. Add flavor to the oyster soup and use this recipe to soak your feet to soothe your liver qi every day.
A few days later, my friend called me and said that the lady was very happy. After using it for five days, she could sleep five hours a day. Then about ten days later, I called again and said that she had completely recovered. I emphasized that she was really recovered.
What is the secret to the cure for insomnia?
First of all, let’s take a look at the general composition of this recipe:
Bupleurum, skullcap, pinellia, ginseng, dragon bone, oyster, cassia twig, poria, rhubarb, ginger, rhubarb date.
This recipe is made from Xiao Bupleurum Decoction, which is specially designed to treat Shaoyang disharmony, liver and gallbladder disorders, qi-fire depression, and disturbed mind.
The original prescription treats: chest fullness, irritability, delirium, difficulty in urination and other symptoms of Shaoyang disease.
In this recipe:
Xiaobuihu decoction can relieve the evil of Shaoyang;
Dragon bone and oyster calm the latent Yang and play a role in calming the mind;
Guizhi unblocks yang and transforms qi, relieves liver stagnation;
Poria cocos purges water from the triple energizer, nourishes the spleen and stabilizes the middle energizer;
Rhubarb purges internal heat. .
Why use this prescription for liver depression?
I mainly use this recipe to relieve liver stagnation caused by bad emotions, that is to say, it is mainly used to regulate emotional disorders.
Why use this recipe?
When I was looking at the medical records for typhoid fever, I found that many cases of this prescription were used to treat various emotional problems caused by mental disorders, especially those with out-of-control emotions. I thought at the time, isn’t everyone like this nowadays?
So I slowly explored and finally established a rough idea of ??addition and subtraction.

6g Bupleurum, 6g Scutellaria, 6g Pinellia, 6g Codonopsis, 6g Zhigancao, 30 Poria Gram, 30 grams of forged keel, 30 grams of forged oyster, 30 grams of mother-of-pearl, 6 grams of cassia twig, 6 grams of turmeric, 6 grams of polygala root, 6 grams of cyperus rotunda, 6 grams of raw rehmannia root, 6 grams of prepared polygonum multiflorum.
How to use the foot soaking recipe for insomnia
Brew for forty minutes, then divide the concoction into two parts, mix it with warm water in the morning and evening, and soak your feet for twenty minutes each time, the water temperature should not be It's too hot and the water just covers the top of your feet.
For some serious physical disorders, a combination of oral administration and foot soaking is more effective. However, if oral administration is required, you need to ask a local doctor to make slight additions or subtractions based on your own physical condition. However, oral administration should include ginger and jujube. I generally recommend three slices of ginger and twelve jujubes (break them apart).
Generally, if insomnia is indeed caused by uncomfortable liver qi, you will feel obvious after soaking your feet and fall asleep easily. However, this prescription is indeed not for sleeping. It is soothing the liver and calming the nerves. Improving sleep is just a result.
Are you depressed? Test it and see!
In fact, many people’s physical problems now seem to have nothing to do with their emotions, but if you ask carefully, you can find out what kind of emotional depression they had a few years ago. Now they feel that their emotions are fine, but their bodies have never adjusted. .
In this case, Chinese medicine will analyze the physical symptoms to see if the body is still stagnation. I think the basic symptoms are: bitter mouth, dry mouth, dizziness, poor appetite, and alternating coldness and coldness. Feeling of heat, getting angry easily when upset, sulking easily when upset, feeling nauseated or even vomiting, chest tightness and palpitations, swelling and pain on both sides of the ribs, insomnia and dreaminess. The more of these symptoms you have, the more serious it is.
At this time, the shape of the tongue is often pointed. A normal tongue should be oval when it sticks out. When the tongue of such people sticks out, it is often in a pointed state, pointed and long. . This is a main direction of my judgment.
If you have severe insomnia, I would suggest that in addition to soaking your feet at night, you can also take Chinese medicine.
Composition of the foot soaking recipe for insomnia (disabled by pregnant women)
Boil six grams of cornus and three grams of Schisandra chinensis in water, and use this water to drink three grams of fried jujube kernel powder. Just take it once a night. This is the idea of ??nourishing the liver and blood and reassuring the mind.
However, we cannot use this kind of prescription for a lifetime. Generally, it only works for a short time. What really regulates our body is our good mentality and our practice of being kind to others. As long as we are kind to others everywhere and have compassion in our hearts, we will have a cheerful mind and smooth qi and blood.
So, what really makes you healthy is not herbal medicine, but adjusting your mentality and emotions.
