Disturbances in this tension create a situation where a person’s usual inward soft sensibility becomes a defensive alertness and the usual external wall of armored protectiveness becomes a border of soft, even mushy, vulnerability. On the physical level, one type of loss of adjustment between exterior and interior is recognized in occasional tenderness, stiffness, numbness or sensations of heaviness. On a psychological level, this imbalance is present when a person’s usual sense of external engagement primarily monitors their own interior stagnation. Discomfort becomes the primary or even exclusive experience of a person’s being; the inner and outer merging into a single awareness of noxious sensations. The exterior is vulnerable, the interior is defensive. The Nutritive \u003cem\u003e(Ying) \u003c\/em\u003eQi has become misplaced on the ‘outside,’ the Protective \u003cem\u003e(Wei) \u003c\/em\u003eQi has drawn inappropriately inwards − chaos reigns. \u003cstrong\u003eMeridian \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComfort \u003c\/strong\u003eis the traditional approach to realign the exterior and interior and create a new sense of comfortable order. \u003cstrong\u003eMeridian Comfort \u003c\/strong\u003erebalances the exterior and interior.

Muscles, tendons and joints need a dynamic balance of strength and resilience with softness and gentleness.

More softness in the interior means less cramping, less resisting and less vigilance towards stimuli. More interior softness means less wanting things to be other than they are. Less softness on the exterior means more engagement. All this realignment means that sensation and aversion to discomfort is diminished. A person is more comfortable in engaging the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn another dimension of interiority, it allows a person to become less sensitive to the opinions and external pressures of others and more able to confidently accept their own inner desires and voice.

While Chinese cinnamon twig is assertive, moves outwards and increases the exterior vigilance, White peony root increases the interior yielding. It is extremely stable and “softens and comforts” the interior. Its stability is critical to lessening stagnation, cramping and in promoting a sense of inner peace and calm. Its astringent properties help retain an inner self that does not need to rely on any external expression.

It is used in combination with White peony root whenever the interior moisture ‘leaks’ while the exterior resistance is too weak to defend a person. While this is often interpreted to mean an outside pernicious influence, it is also understood in Cold Induced Disharmonies and in Zhang Zhong-jing’s other book, Essential Formulas of the Golden Chest (Jin-gui Yao-lue Fang-lun, 220 A.D.), to apply to deficient situations. Zhang Zhong- Jing describes Cinnamon twig as “tonifying and strengthening the middle” several times in his writings. This understanding is similar to the one expressed in Divine Husbandman’s Classic of the Materia Medica (Shen-nong Ben-cao Jing, 150 A.D.) in which Cinnamon is said to “tonify the middle and benefit the Qi.” Additionally, Chinese herbal tradition also considers Chinese \u003c\/em\u003eCinnamon twig an essential herb for alleviating stagnation.
