Bad mood, anxiety, chest tightness and flank pain, belching and sighing, abdominal distension and poor appetite, etc. The core of conditioning is to relieve liver depression and regulate qi to remove stagnation. The following are specific conditioning methods:

Daily conditioning method

Emotional counseling

Maintain a cheerful mood: The liver governs the flow of qi, and emotional repression can exacerbate qi stagnation. Relieve stress by talking, keeping a journal, or cultivating hobbies such as music or painting.

Acupressure points: Taichong (the depression in front of the junction of the first and second metatarsal bones on the dorsum of the foot): This is the liver meridian’s origin point. Press for 3-5 minutes until you feel a soreness or swelling.
Qimen (the sixth intercostal space directly below the nipple): This point soothes the liver and regulates qi. Rub your palms together to warm them, then massage in a clockwise motion.

Motion-induced retardation

Aerobic exercise: Brisk walking, jogging, swimming, etc. promote blood circulation, 3-5 times per week for 30 minutes each time.
Stretch the Liver and Gallbladder Meridians: Practice yoga (such as the Cat-Cow Pose) or Ba Duan Jin (the “Drawing the Bow Left and Right Like Shooting an Eagle” movement is particularly suitable).

External treatment of traditional Chinese medicine

  1. Paida the Gallbladder Meridian: Gently tap along the outer thigh (at the trouser seam) from top to bottom, twice daily for 5 minutes each time, to help clear liver qi.
  2. Moxibustion: Moxibustion the Tanzhong point (midpoint between the nipples) and the Zhongwan point (4 inches above the navel) for 10-15 minutes each to warm and promote yang qi.

Traditional Herbal Supplements

Precautions
Avoid staying up late: Go to bed before 11 PM, as the liver meridian is in season between 1 AM and 3 AM. Staying up late can damage the liver.
Avoid excessive worry: Chronic anxiety can worsen liver depression. Try meditation or deep breathing exercises (abdominal breathing).
Avoid cold, greasy foods: Cold drinks and fatty, sweet foods can burden the spleen and stomach, disrupting Qi flow.
