Treating Insomnia with Traditional Chinese Medicine
Traditional Chinese Medicine considers our sleeping cycle as a vibrant and constitutive physiological process with the characteristic postulation of vital energy (qi), yin and yang to explain the sleeping pattern. The vital energy inside the body has a specified route and course to flow daily. The energy cycle governs the sleep-wake cycle in conjunction with yin and yang. The continual daily succession of yin and yang in the nature determines the sleep rhythm in our body. When yang energy is dominant, it helps keep you awake. On the other hand, when yin energy is abundant, it helps you sleep. If the yang energy is not interacting with the yin energy, or the internal yin and yang balance has been disturbed, you may become excessively excited leading to insomnia, which is presented as the inability to obtain sufficient sleep, difficulty falling asleep or being unable to asleep throughout the night.

Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a kind of anxiety disorder. When a patient experiences or witnesses major traumas or catastrophic events, such as threats to personal safety, tragedy of witnessing death or injury, sudden loss of family members, natural disasters, or personal experience of violence or crimes, he or she would often feel lost or anxious. In some cases, the patient may be easily frightened and suffer from insomnia. These emotions of loss, uneasiness or distress often become less severe over time. However, if such symptoms continue to worsen and persist for over a month, leading to interference with daily life, it may be necessary for the patient to seek professional assistance for assessment and support.
Menopause
Approaching their middle age, most women cannot help but find menopause worrying if not horrifying, as if it signaled a progressive deterioration of body functions and the dissipation of youth. To alleviate the discomfort and uneasiness caused by menopause, it is necessary that we have a thorough understanding on the physiological phase of menopause, by recognizing the changes in the body and maintaining a healthy physique through minor yet significant adjustments of daily activities.
Anxiety
Anxiety is a normal inherent emotional response. When facing crises or challenges, anyone would feel anxious and uneasy. Under normal circumstances, an appropriate amount of anxiety can activate corresponding physiological responses to help us stay alert and cope with daily challenges or protect ourselves in unexpected events. However, if a person continuously experiences unknown disturbance and fear even in the absence of crisis, the persistent and excessive anxiety, apart from causing emotional disturbance, may also hinder his/her daily life. Under such conditions, the person may be suffering from an anxiety disorder.
