ANXIETY AND HEART PALPITATIONS
Typical symptoms:
anxiety and palpitations, dizziness and vertigo, nausea and vomiting, palpitations, sweatingDisease description:
Anxiety is a normal emotion. It’s your brain’s way of reacting to stress and potential threatening situation ahead.
It is part of life but if it gets out of control, it can become pathological and impair the quality of life. Most often fears occur in connection with heart disease, respiratory diseases or thyroid disorders. Depression or another mental illness, disorders of the nervous system and the brain can be the cause for it. Anxiety can trigger various symptoms such as heart palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, trembling, nausea, vomiting and sweating.
Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:
Chinese medicine refers to anxiety and palpitations as Heart Shen disturbance, because the Heart controls the Shen. Shen refers to the higher central nervous activities which include the spirit, consciousness and thinking. Imbalance of Yin and Yang and disturbance of Heart function may cause anxiety and palpitations.
Possible syndromes causing these problems:

A stressful lifestyle causes Liver Qi Stagnation, which disturbs Heart function and the Shen. Symptoms are stress linked and include: anxiety, palpitations, stressed out, irritated, dry mouth.

INSOMNIA (SLEEPING DISORDER)
Typical symptoms:
insomniaDisease description:
Our body and mind need sufficient sleep to regenerate and gather new strength. Anyone who sleeps badly more than three nights a week for more than a month could have a chronic sleep disorder (insomnia). Besides stress, family and health problems, sleep disorders are often the result of depression. Due to age-related sleep changes, sleep disorders occur particularly frequently after the age of 60. Those affected are tired during the day, unable to concentrate, have attention and memory problems, are easily irritable and have general weakness. As a result, performance decreases considerably.
Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:
Chinese medicine believes that the day belongs to Yang, night belongs to Yin. Yin and Yang of the human body move with the change of the day and night, so there is a wake-up and sleep cycle. Therefore, any disorder of organ function can disturb Yin-Yang balance and cause insomnia.
Possible syndromes causing these problems:
Liver Qi Stagnation and Blood Deficiency and Heat (stress-related)
Stagnation of Liver Qi causes Liver Heat which disturbs the Heart Shen, causing difficulty sleeping, restlessness, easily angered, stressed out.
Recommended formulas to use:

Recommended formulas to use:
Heart Blood Deficiency (anaemia-related)
Deficiency of Heart Blood leads to lack of support of Shen, causing difficulty sleeping, dream-disturbed sleep, low energy, poor concentration, pale face and a poor appetite.
