This activity is concerned with the polarity of gentle reflectiveness and dynamic responsiveness; it embraces both the Yin power to gracefully unfold – while being content, quiet and present – and the Yang power to activate, move and transform.

It is also for occasional tiredness. When a weak Will (Zhi) cannot activate, \u003cstrong\u003eDynamic Warrior\u003c\/strong\u003e makes room for movement. It is the formula for the inability to stand on one’s own feet, assert oneself and be firm. This formula can also be used by someone unable to discover faith, or for the (sometimes excessive) desire to surrender while unable to find a focus. When a paralysis of Will (Zhi) causes hesitation, indecisiveness and hopelessness, \u003cstrong\u003eDynamic Warrior’s\u003c\/strong\u003e dynamic properties contribute positively.

This formula found an important place in Chinese Herbology and inspired much testing, discussion and revision. Great scholars have been continually creating new versions by adding and subtracting from it, and changing the dosage. In formulating our own version of\u003cstrong\u003e Dynamic Warrior\u003c\/strong\u003e, we have paid careful attention to these historical precedents and have also reflected on our experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith much appreciation, we incorporated Yan Yong-Huo’s addition of Schisandra fruit and Achyranthes root, which he describes in Formulas Beneficial to Life (1253 A.D.).

Following Dr. Zhang’s reworking of his “Right Returning Drink” (You Gui Yin) and “Great Original Primary Decoction” (Da Bu Yuan Jian), we have eliminated what he termed “the three draining components” of the original Golden Chest formula – Alisma, Poria and Peony bark – and added Eucommia bark, Lycium fruit, Chinese red ginseng root and rhizome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn adopting these revisions, we expect that experienced herbalists will see that we’ve carefully sifted through the experience of the Chinese, as well as our own, and have developed a formula able to meet their needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eABOUT THE HERBS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEucommia bark \u003c\/strong\u003eis an important herb to strengthen the Kidney’s activating power.
