Guest guest Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Jason, Can you post more on the " Essentials of Warm Disease " by Qin Bo-Wei? I wondered about this idea years ago, we live nothing like the Chinese. It seems they were dealing with deficiency and we are dealing with excess in every way so why would we use formulas mostly designed for deficiency? They must have dealt with excesses when they dealt with the royals or the rich but most of the work was with the common people. It's odd, I had a teacher who once said the reason they were able to develop such great formulas was all the political prisoners they had to practice on, in China and from outside!

However, this formula was written centuries before warm disease theory was developed. I do not use this treatment strategy often, but here and there I had good success with it. That is, " when there is fire from constraint, discharge it. " I am wondering how a SHL approach would address this lurking fire in the spleen. Any ideas? -Jason [] On Behalf Of cara anyway- also this kind of reminds me of my comment on your blog the other day: it's like a morph of SHL and Wen bing. is that why you were thinking about it?

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Patrick, I am curious why you think we are dealing with excess in every way? I see complex presentations of heat, cold, excess, deficiency combined daily.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Hi cara, I don't. But Americans, if that's who we're talking about deal with many issues of dietary excesses and lack of exercise. And it seems we also have an explosion of autoimmune disease. So generally I'm saying this as a general observation of our society. I'm sure as you say presentations show multiple symptoms.
