Produktbeschreibung

Break free from anxiety, panic, depression, and dysfunction with scientifically proven remedies and practices from traditional Chinese medicine. The modern world is a nightmare for our mental health. Does modern medicine have the answer? For many patients, the answer is, unfortunately, "no." But there may be another way. For two thousand years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been treating anxiety, depression, insomnia, and other mental and emotional conditions with the same effective remedies. In Chinese Medicine for the Mind, you will learn exactly what those remedies are and discover how to use them yourself to improve your mental and emotional well-being. In Western medicine, the body and the mind are separate entities and the prescription for treating either is the same: short- or long-term use of recently developed drugs targeting single symptoms that often come with debilitating side effects. In Chinese medicine, the body and mind are innately, intricately connected and you cannot treat one without treating the other. Featuring advice and contributions from some of the most highly respected practitioners and doctor of Chinese medicine today, the book is divided into six chapters, each of which covers a common mental health disorder: anxiety, depression, insomnia, focus issues, brain fog, and trauma. Each chapter describes the unique way Chinese medicine approaches that condition and then prescribes specific treatments and practices for addressing it that you can easily access in your everyday life. This includes:

• Common herbal formulations
• Self-administered acupressure
• Tai chi exercises
• Meditation and visualization practices
• Five Element music therapy
• and more!

Well-researched and highly comprehensive, Chinese Medicine for the Mind discusses the historical context of TCM's approach to these treatments, while also pulling in support for their efficacy via modern clinical studies and research. For anyone who has struggled or is struggling with their mental health, this book offers an alternative, time-tested, naturopathic way to a healthier mind, a calmer heart, and a more peaceful life.
