There are many types of insomnia, and the treatment varies greatly according to the individual type and symptoms.
For example, for insomnia caused by deficiency of the heart and spleen, the heart and spleen should be regulated; for liver and blood deficiency, the liver and blood should be nourished; for heart and kidney disorder, the heart and kidney should be transported; for insomnia caused by liver depression and fire and phlegm, the depression, heat and phlegm should be cleared; for insomnia caused by stomach disharmony, the stomach should be regulated; for liver depression and qi stagnation, the liver should be de-stagnated.
Therefore, to treat insomnia, the first thing we need to figure out is what the cause is, how to get it, and prescribe the right medicine according to the symptoms, so that the effect is obvious.
For example, people nowadays, his insomnia, not only can not sleep, often accompanied by anxiety, because of poor sleep, feel upset and anxiety, so we need to identify the basis, combined with the psychology of modern people, adding some anti-anxiety drugs to remove annoyance, called in Chinese medicine to remove annoyance and clear heat.
Take life, the more common cause of insomnia liver depression qi stagnation, as long as the anger, anxiety, it is easy to sleep, and at the same time, feel, chest or less abdominal distension, depression, easy to anger, often sigh, or feel something in the throat area, or hypochondrium area below a press, there are lumps and other symptoms.
This is because the liver is the main emotion, you encounter a troubling thing, in that angry, depressed, will affect the liver, the liver, the main drainage, in charge of the whole body qi, like the flow, evil depression, depressed mood, resulting in liver drainage dysregulation, qi disorder, like a traffic jam, blocked to that does not go, stalled in that, this blockage, the internal organs do not get along, then you can sleep?
This time, we should dredge the liver to relieve depression, so that the qi flow smoothly, the liver draining back to normal, the most commonly used is the addition and subtraction of free and clear.

This is called free and easy, no worries, relaxed mood, combined with the previously mentioned, on the basis of free and easy to add some herbs to remove annoyance and clear heat, calm the mind can be.
Another common cause of insomnia is the deficiency of the heart and spleen.
According to Chinese medicine, excessive thinking and exertion will damage the heart and spleen, resulting in two deficiencies of the heart and spleen, and nowadays life is so stressful that basically everyone has some excessive thinking and exertion, which is why I say that two deficiencies of the heart and spleen are one of the common causes of insomnia in life.
The spleen is the source of transportation, the source of biochemical energy and blood. If the spleen is deficient, there is no source of biochemical energy and blood, and the blood does not nourish the heart, it will lead to restlessness of the heart and mind.
The symptoms are: distraction and insomnia, panic and shortness of breath, slower reaction, tiredness and fatigue of the limbs, not wanting to move, loss of appetite, abdominal distension, feeling more distended after eating, rotten and unshaped stools, etc.
In this case, the heart and spleen should be regulated, and the most commonly used is the addition and subtraction of GUI Spleen Tang.
There is also, excessive thinking, the heart is always loaded with things, excessive brain, can not sleep, Chinese medicine said this is called hurt the heart and blood, we all know that the heart is the master of the gods, in charge of everything, such as our thinking and consciousness, excessive use of the brain, the heart is loaded with things every day, will hurt the heart and blood, the heart in charge of all the problems, and how can sleep?
Not only can’t sleep, but also accompanied by palpitations and palpitations, thinking of lying quietly to slow down, but to no avail, and dizziness, no luster on the face, reduced blood on the lips, and especially easily frightened, forgetfulness, things just put down, forget where to put it and other symptoms.
What you need to do in this case is to nourish the heart and blood, the most commonly used is the addition and subtraction of Tianwang Tonic Heart Soup, add and subtract, add what?
You can add some flowers, flowers make people happy mood, we will feel happy when we see flowers, no one said, see flowers after the sad face, right, to the formula to add some roses, flowers to make people more happy mood of herbs, the overall down it. It has the effect of relieving depression and distress, nourishing the heart and calming the mind
There is also insomnia caused by the heart and kidneys do not intersect, the heart and kidneys do not intersect I have said many times before, the heart and kidneys do not intersect the heart, belongs to the five organs of fire, kidneys, water, under normal circumstances, the heart fire down with the kidney Yang together with the kidney water, so that the kidney water is not cold; kidney water, up to help the heart Yang, so that the heart fire is not hyperactive.
We call this state water and fire, the balance of yin and yang, is the guarantee that we can live a normal life.
Once this balance is broken, the body will have problems, for example, the kidney water becomes less, that is, the kidney yin is not enough, there is no way to help the heart fire, the heart fire will be more and more hyper, appearing irritable heat, night sweats, tinnitus, insomnia and dreaminess, dysfunction, waist and knee weakness and other symptoms.
Because of the lack of water, lack of fluid, so the tongue is red, no water, for this case, should be nourishing yin to reduce fire, pay attention to the nourishing yin to reduce fire, is the kidney water becomes less, heart fire is hyperactive state of nourishing yin!
The most commonly used formula is, Huang Lian Agaricus soup, Huang Lian can lower the heart fire, Agaricus can nourish the kidney water, chicken seed yellow to nourish the yin blood and clear the deficiency heat.
This is a heart-kidney disorder, and a problem that many people have – the stomach is not harmonious then restless.
The reason for insomnia is that the stomach is strong and the spleen is weak, the stomach is the main receiver, your stomach is strong, the receiver is more, eat more, but your spleen is weak, the spleen is the main transporter, the spleen is weak, the transporter is out of order, there is no way to transport, can not absorb and digest what you eat.
Those things that can not be digested, will be stagnant in the stomach, this stop will be a problem, the stomach to descend as smooth, now can not descend, the stomach gas will rebel, you lie down to sleep, the stomach inside the things will return up, and also accompanied by, chest full of stuffy, playing apart, acid reflux, nausea and vomiting and other symptoms. Then you can still sleep?
So eat regularly and don’t eat too much before going to bed.
The most commonly used for this condition is Panicum Panicum soup.
