，因痰动也。心 动者，谓不怕惊而心自动也。惊恐亦曰心中 恐，谓怕惊而心亦动也。
其 自动之病，属二经。一属心主手厥阴病。经云∶心主手厥阴之脉是动，则病心中 大动，面赤目
黄，喜笑不休，视盛虚热寒，陷下取之，是刺灸之法也。又曰∶太阳司天，寒淫所胜，病心 大动，胸胁胃
脘不安，治以甘热。是运气之寒伤心主也。其二属少阳病。经云∶一阳发病，少气善咳善噫，其传为心掣是也。
（掣，尺制反，曳也。）
怒在阴阳，为阴闭遏其阳，而阳不得伸也。经云∶阴出之阳则怒。又云∶血并于上，气并于下，心烦冤善
怒。东垣云∶多怒者，风热陷下于地是也。怒在脏腑所属经，在脏为肝，在志为怒。又云∶肝藏血，血有余则
怒。又云∶胆为怒是也。

运气 怒皆属木太过。经云∶木太过曰发生。发生之纪，其病怒。又云∶岁木太过，风气流行，甚则善怒。
又云∶岁土不及，风反大行，民病善怒是也。怒在禁忌，多生厥逆。经云∶阳气者，大怒则形气绝，而血菀于
上，使人薄厥。又云∶暴怒伤阳。又云∶怒则气逆，甚则呕血及餐泄是也。
运气 善太息皆属燥邪伤胆。经云∶阳明在泉，燥淫所胜，病善太息。又云∶阳明之胜，太息呕苦。又云∶
少阴司天，地乃燥，凄怆数至，胁痛善太息是也。
《内经》灸刺善太息，皆取心胆二经。经云∶黄帝曰∶人之太息者，何气使然？岐伯曰∶思忧则心系急，心
系急则气道约，约则不利，故太息以出之，补手少阴心主、足少阳留之也。又曰∶胆病者，善太息，口苦呕宿
汁，视足少阳脉之陷下者灸之。又云∶胆足少阳之脉是动，则病口苦善太息，视盛虚实寒热，陷下取之是也。
〔《甲》〕色苍苍然，太息如将死状，振寒，溲白便难，中封主之。脾虚，令人病寒不乐，好太息，商丘
主之。凡好太息，不嗜食，多寒热汗出，病至则善呕，呕已乃衰，即取公孙及井 。实则肠中切痛厥，头面肿
起，烦心，狂饮多不嗜卧；虚则腹胀，肠中气大满，热痛，不嗜食，霍乱，公孙主之。
因痰饮扰动所致。所谓“心动”，是指不害怕惊吓而心脏自行悸动不安。惊恐则称为“心中恐”，是指害怕惊吓且心脏随之悸动。
这种心脏自行悸动的病症，归属于两条经脉。一是归属于手厥阴心包经的病证。医经记载：手厥阴心包经发生变动，就会引起心中剧烈悸动，面色发红，眼目发黄，喜笑不止；诊察其脉象的盛衰、寒热虚实，若脉陷下则采用针刺或艾灸的方法治疗，这是刺灸的治疗法则。又说：当太阳司天之年，寒气过胜，会导致心脏剧烈悸动，胸胁及胃脘部不适，治疗宜用甘味热性药物。这是运气学说中寒气损伤心主（心包）的情况。二是归属于少阳胆经的病证。医经记载：一阳（少阳）发病，会出现气短、容易咳嗽和嗳气，病情传变后发展为心掣（牵引样疼痛）。
（“掣”字读音为尺制反切，意为牵引。）
怒的情绪变化，在阴阳方面，是由于阴气闭遏阳气，导致阳气不得舒展。医经记载：阴气出于阳分则表现为怒。又说：血气上逆于上部，气机郁结于下部，会导致心烦冤屈、易怒。李东垣说：多怒的人，是因为风热之气陷下于地（体内下部）。怒的情绪与脏腑所属经脉相关，在脏属于肝，在志属于怒。又说：肝藏血，血气有余则易怒。又说：胆也与怒有关。

从运气学说来看，怒气皆属于木气太过。医经记载：木气太过称为“发生”。发生之纪，其病表现为怒。又说：岁运木气太过，风气流行，严重时容易发怒。又说：岁运土气不及，风气反而大行，民众容易生病表现为易怒，即是此理。关于怒的禁忌，容易引发厥逆证。医经记载：人体的阳气，如果大怒，会导致形体之气隔绝，血液郁积于上部，使人发生薄厥（气血上冲导致的昏厥）。又说：暴怒会损伤阳气。又说：怒会导致气机上逆，严重时会出现呕血和下利完谷（餐泄），即是此理。
从运气学说来看，善太息（喜欢长叹气）皆属于燥邪损伤胆经。医经记载：阳明在泉之年，燥气过胜，病症表现为善太息。又说：阳明之气偏胜，会出现太息、口苦、呕吐酸苦水。又说：少阴司天之年，大地干燥，气候凄冷频繁到来，病症表现为胁痛、善太息，即是此理。
《黄帝内经》中关于灸刺治疗善太息，都选取心和胆两条经脉。医经记载：黄帝问：人之所以出现太息，是什么气使之然？岐伯答：思虑忧愁会导致心系紧急，心系紧急则气道约束，约束则不通利，所以通过太息来宣泄它，应补益手少阴心经和手厥阴心包经、足少阳胆经的留针穴位。又说：胆病患者，喜欢长叹气，口苦，呕吐宿汁，应诊察足少阳经脉陷下的部位进行艾灸。又说：足少阳胆经发生变动，就会引起口苦、善太息，诊察其脉象的盛衰、虚实、寒热，若脉陷下则取穴治疗，即是此理。
〔《针灸甲乙经》〕面色青苍，喜欢长叹气像要死的样子，恶寒战栗，小便色白，大便困难，主取中封穴。脾虚，使人患病怕冷、心情不悦，喜欢长叹气，主取商丘穴。凡是喜欢长叹气，食欲不振，多发寒热汗出，病发作时容易呕吐，吐完后症状减轻，即取公孙穴及井穴。实证表现为肠中剧烈疼痛、厥逆，头面肿胀，心烦，狂饮，不喜欢睡觉；虚证表现为腹胀，肠中气胀满，热痛，食欲不振，霍乱，主取公孙穴。
Caused by the disturbance of phlegm (Tan, Phlegm). The term "Heart Palpitation" (Xin Dong) refers to a condition where the heart palpitates spontaneously without fear of fright. Fright is also called "Fear in the Heart" (Xin Zhong Kong), referring to being afraid of fright with the heart palpitating accordingly.
This spontaneous palpitation belongs to two meridians. One belongs to the Hand Jueyin Pericardium Meridian disease. The classics state: When the Hand Jueyin Pericardium Meridian moves, it causes severe palpitations in the heart, red face, yellow eyes, and incessant laughter; observing the excess or deficiency, heat or cold, if the pulse is sunken, acupuncture or moxibustion should be applied. This is the method of needling and moxibustion. It also states: When Taiyang governs the year, and Cold invades excessively, it causes severe heart palpitations and discomfort in the chest, hypochondrium, and epigastrium, treated with sweet and hot substances. This refers to Cold damaging the Pericardium due to climatic factors. The second belongs to Shaoyang disease. The classics state: When one Yang pathogen strikes, there is shortness of breath, frequent coughing, and belching; its transmission leads to Xin Che (pulling pain in the heart).
(Che, pronounced chi-zhi, means pulling or dragging.)
Anger, in terms of Yin and Yang, occurs when Yin obstructs Yang, preventing Yang from extending. The classics state: When Yin emerges into Yang, anger results. It also states: When Blood congregates above and Qi congregates below, it causes mental distress, grievance, and irritability. Li Dongyuan said: Those who are prone to anger have Wind-Heat sinking into the lower body. Anger is associated with the meridians of the Zang organs; in the Zang, it belongs to the Liver, and in the Emotions, it is Anger. It also states: The Liver stores Blood; when Blood is in excess, anger occurs. It also states: The Gallbladder is related to anger.

Mix evenly, take 5 qian mixed with white boiled water.
From the perspective of Five Movements and Six Qi, anger all belongs to excessive Wood. The classics state: Excessive Wood is called Fa Sheng (Initiating Growth). In the Ji of Fa Sheng, the disease manifests as anger. It also states: When the annual Wood Qi is excessive, Wind prevails, and severe cases lead to irritability. It also states: When the annual Earth Qi is insufficient, Wind acts excessively, and the people suffer from irritability. Regarding contraindications for anger, it often generates Jue Ni (Reversal Cold/Stroke-like conditions). The classics state: The Yang Qi of humans, if angered greatly, causes the form and Qi to sever, and Blood stagnates above, causing Bo Jue (severe fainting due to blood rushing up). It also states: Violent anger damages Yang. It also states: Anger causes Qi to rebel upwards; in severe cases, it leads to hematemesis and diarrhea with undigested food.
From the perspective of Five Movements and Six Qi, frequent sighing (Shan Tai Xi) all belongs to Dryness pathogen damaging the Gallbladder. The classics state: When Yangming is in the lower position, and Dryness prevails excessively, the disease manifests as frequent sighing. It also states: When Yangming Qi wins, there is sighing, bitter taste, and vomiting of sour/bitter fluids. It also states: When Shaoyin governs the year, the earth becomes dry, the climate is chilling and frequent, and the disease manifests as hypochondriac pain and frequent sighing.
In the *Neijing*, acupuncture and moxibustion for frequent sighing all select the Heart and Gallbladder meridians. The classics state: Yellow Emperor asked: What makes people sigh? Qibo answered: Thinking and sorrow make the Xin Mai (Heart vessel) tight; when the Heart vessel is tight, the Qi pathway is constrained; when constrained, it is not smooth, so one sighs to release it. Tonify the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian, Hand Jueyin Pericardium Meridian, and Foot Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian's Liu (retention/acupoints). It also states: Patients with Gallbladder disease sigh frequently, have a bitter taste, and vomit old fluid; observe the sunken areas of the Foot Shaoyang Meridian and apply moxibustion. It also states: When the Foot Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian moves, it causes bitter taste and frequent sighing; observe the excess, deficiency, heat, cold, and sunken pulse, and treat by selecting points.
*[Jia Yi Jing]* If the complexion is dark green/cyan, the patient sighs frequently as if dying, has chills and tremors, white urine, and difficult defecation, Zhongfeng (LR4) is the primary point. Spleen deficiency causes cold intolerance, unhappiness, and frequent sighing; Shangqiu (SP5) is the primary point. Generally, those who sigh frequently, lack appetite, suffer from alternating chills and fever with sweating, vomit easily upon onset of illness, and recover after vomiting, should have Gongsun (SP4) and Jing (Well) points selected. Excess patterns involve cutting pain in the intestines, reversal cold, swelling of the head and face, mental restlessness, polydipsia, and insomnia; deficiency patterns involve abdominal distension, fullness of Qi in the intestines, hot pain, loss of appetite, and cholera-like symptoms; Gongsun (SP4) is the primary point.
