 | | In this case, the heart and the kidney need to be "reconnected" by clearing heart fire (descending heart fire) and steaming kidney water (ascending kidney water); an example is using a small amount of bitter coptis to reduce the heart fire with a small amount of hot spicy cinnamon to steam the kidney water. | | | While the zang organ serves as a residence (the shen resides in the heart) and a major transporter (the heart moves the blood) the fu organ serves only as a transfer station, temporarily storing material that is to be discharged. | | | Nourish the heart and pacify shen (yang xin an shen yang): fushen (fushen), zizyphus (suanzaoren), biota (baiziren), succinum (hupo). |

| | The heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney and pericardium grouped together are known as the six zang organs. | | | (Each zang organ opens into a sense organ which indicates a close structural or physiological and pathological relationship between the internal organs and the sense organs.) The main physiological functions of the heart are controlling blood and vessels and housing the mind. | | | A tenet of traditional Chinese medicine, therefore, is that mental activity is dominated by various organs, the heart being the main one. |
