Description

Yang Xin Tang addresses the "Heart-Spirit" connection by rebuilding the energy (Qi) and the substance (Blood) that anchors the mind.

Huang Qi, Ren Shen, and Fu Ling form a powerful Qi-tonifying base to stabilize the Heart's energy.

Dang Gui and Suan Zao Ren nourish the Heart Blood, "soaking" the Spirit in nourishment to stop anxiety.

Bai Zi Ren and Yuan Zhi specifically calm the Shen; Yuan Zhi also helps connect the Heart and Kidney communication.

Ban Xia Qu ensures that the rich, tonifying herbs don't create "Dampness" or stagnation in the stomach.

Rou Gui (Cinnamon Bark) adds a tiny spark of Yang fire to keep the Heart blood moving and warm the chest.

Contraindications

Contraindicated for Excess Heat or Fire (red face, loud voice, red tongue).

Not for use in cases of Phlegm-Fire disturbing the heart (intense mania or thick yellow tongue coating).

Use with caution in cases of acute flu or fever (exterior patterns).

Pregnancy: Consult a practitioner due to the inclusion of Chuan Xiong and Yuan Zhi.
