Shen, or spirit, is the consciousness that animates your being.
Your life would be meaningless and unfulfilling without spirit, even though your physical body could survive for years until death.
Therefore your spirit needs nurturing, just as your body does, through self-love, discipline, and spirit-nourishing herbs.
For example, bamboo shaving is traditionally used to strengthen objectivity and dispel undue worry. Lily bulb restores joy and eases sadness.
Dragon bone maintains stability and lessens anger and depression.
Chinese senega root promotes clarity and calms excessive excitement and anxiety. Rehmannia root strengthens will and dispels fear. All are available in Chinese Herb shops and your local acupuncturist’s office.
