Formulas that nourish the Heart and calm the Mind

Main Actions

  • Anchors the Heart and calms the Mind

Formula Origin

China Yi Xue Wen Zhai (1985 AD )

Formula Description

Zhen Xin An Shen Tang is a 7-ingredient Chinese Medicine formula.

 

Invented in 1985 AD, it belongs to the category of formulas that nourish the Heart and calm the Mind. Its main action is that it anchors the Heart and calms the Mind.

 

In Chinese Medicine health conditions are thought to arise due to "disharmonies" in the body as a system. These disharmonies are called "patterns" and the very purpose of herbal formulas is to fight them in order to restore the body's harmony.

 

In this case Zhen Xin An Shen Tang is used by TCM practitioners to fight patterns like Heart Blood Deficiency or Liver Yang Rising. From a Western Medicine standpoint, such patterns can give rise to a range of conditions such as neurotic insomnia, dreamdisturbed sleep or excessive dreams for instance.
