In TCM, the Liver is the general, the Spleen the officer. Stress affects digestion when the general's angry. Long-term, it causes heat & dampness. Let's address it! #StudyAcupunctureWithMe #TCMboards #AcupunctureStudent #NCCAOMprep #TraditionalChineseMedicine

Let's explore how the heart governs blood, working with our lungs (Qi!) for circulation. The spleen transports nourishment, especially to our limbs, and the liver stores & distributes blood based on activity. Together, we thrive! #TCMboards #AcupunctureStudent
