The most fundamental Qi in human life is the Original Qi (Yuan Qi). Li Dong-Yuan (also known as Li Guo, 1180-1252 A.D.), in the discussion that introduces the original version of Arouse Vigor, points out that a person’s capacity and desire to engage in activity, to transform to a new state of being, to adapt in relationship to the environment and to be imbued with feelings are all dependent on this Original Qi (Discussion of the Spleen and Stomach, section 2, 1249 A.D.). The Original Qi activates, maintains and gives intention to the entire personality. To nourish this generative source of so many dimensions of human life, Li Dong-Yuan created “Benefit the Middle and Boost the Qi” (Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original name for Arouse Vigor, “Benefit the Middle and Boost the Qi,” refers to the “Middle” and the “Qi.” The famous Ming Dynasty scholar, Wu Kun, commenting on this name said, “The Middle is the Spleen, the feminine, the mother of the ten thousand phenomena. Qi is the Yang, the masculine, the father of the ten thousand phenomena...” (Verified Medical Prescriptions, section 20, 1584 A.D.).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLi Dong-Yuan is renowned for emphasizing the central role of Spleen-Stomach Qi. In his dramatic style he states: “All five solid organs (Wu Zang) belong to the Stomach and all disharmony comes from its deficiency.” This Spleen-Stomach Qi, he says, is identical to the “Original Qi” and “is the pivot of the ascent and descent of the Yang and Yin.” The Original Qi facilitates “the clear Yang Qi’s ascent . . . the turbid Qi’s descent and regulates the nine orifices” (the two eyes, two ears, two nasal passages, mouth, anus and urethra). No human activity, behavior, sensation or thought is separate from Qi’s vigor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePHYSICAL INDICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the Original Qi is so central to life, its disruption can generate a myriad of patterns.

Irritease harmonizes the Liver and Spleen, strengthens the Spleen, tonifies Qi, transforms Dampness, clears Heat and regulates the Middle Burner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIrritease\u003c\/strong\u003e addresses a Liver Spleen disharmony, with Damp Heat in the Stomach and Intestines. In this pattern, the constrained Liver Qi causes stagnation and oppression that leads to Spleen Qi deficiency. Due to the deficiency of Spleen Qi, Dampness accumulates in the Middle and Lower Burners, obstructing the transformative action of the Yang Qi and, over time, transforming into Damp Heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the traditional formula, Tong Xie Yao Feng, four herbs were retained. White atractylodes rhizome strengthens the Spleen and dries Dampness, and White peony root softens the overactive Liver and eases stagnation. Together they restrain the Liver and tonify the Spleen, helping to stop stagnation while addressing occasional loose bowels. Tangerine dried rind of mature fruit harmonizes the Middle Burner and transforms Dampness, supporting the actions of White atractylodes rhizome. Siler root dispels Wind Cold and Wind Damp.

Codonopsis root addresses severe Qi deficiency. With Poria, it addresses Spleen and Stomach deficiency, and with White atractylodes rhizome, it strengthens the Spleen.

Fragrant angelica root helps dispel externally contracted Cold, relieving stagnation and expelling Dampness. Poria, together with White atractylodes rhizome, strengthens the Spleen and transforms Dampness. Prepared Ginger rhizome warms and protects the Middle. Honey fried Chinese licorice root and rhizome strongly tonifies the Middle, augments the Heart and Spleen Qi and harmonizes the properties of the other herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSaussurea root, a classical addition for both formulas, promotes the flow of Qi, dispels stagnation and strengthens the Spleen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, modern modifications were made and several herbs were added to the overall formula.

One may be unable to undertake a project, pessimistic about completing one, or lacking in perseverance. \u003cstrong\u003eProsperous Farmer \u003c\/strong\u003eadds a basic power that addresses this weakness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecondly, the Spleen’s energy involves the ability to transform, to separate pure from impure. It is a down-to-earth energy: stable, honest, with a willingness to embrace self and others. When this transforming ability is obstructed, the Spleen can easily become stuck in a receiving mode, without the capacity to transmute; this over-accumulation is often described as “Dampness.” One then tends to become overly self-conscious and unable to make a move that risks exposure. One may ruminate over endless possibilities or obsess over ideas, often developing a mental flabbiness or dullness that inhibits the possibility of constructive movement. Numerous options, rather than serving as possibilities for growth, become a cause of indecision and lack of clarity, nurturing capacities become an excuse for being a victim, dependability becomes an inability to discern or think critically and stability becomes stagnation. All of these situations are also addressed by the \u003cstrong\u003eProsperous Farmer \u003c\/strong\u003eformula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpleen types are often good at “being present,” but can easily lose the ability to be either firm or moving. They can see the many, but often have trouble seeing the one.

The Kidney is responsible for controlling the movement of body fluids through the Lower Burner; the balance of Kidney Yang and Yin must be maintained for proper regulation to occur. When True Yang is deficient, the Kidney Qi is no longer sufficiently supported, weakening its transformative powers.

This sequence strongly affects the movement and balance of Water in the body. Although Water is governed by the Kidney, the Spleen is responsible for controlling it. When Spleen Yang is unable to transform and transport water, Dampness may infiltrate the flesh, causing a pattern known as Leg Qi. The retention of Dampness may also cause occasional loose stools.
