It is especially designed for the Yin and Qi of the Lungs. The Lungs govern the upper limits of Qi, keeping the bodily energy intact by condensing, consolidating and regrouping the Qi when it becomes scattered or its boundaries ill-defined. As they are concerned with moment-to-moment inhalation and exhalation, the Lungs relate to the give and take of ordinary human activity. In China this is a popular tonic, reflecting their cultural belief that when one expends energy with an intense self- directed pace, a mild tonic is needed to let the cool, refreshing, gentle movements of heaven recharge one’s being.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePHYSICAL INDICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWise Judge \u003c\/strong\u003eprimarily moistens the Lungs, and is very thirst-quenching.

Although this pattern can develop over a period of time, a sudden manifestation of this pattern is also possible, typically following an exterior Wind invasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs Spleen Qi insufficiency lingers, Dampness is generated, leading to Phlegm that begins to accumulate and eventually hardens in the channels. As the Spleen weakens, the Liver will begin to stagnate, becoming rigid and unable to bend. Since the Liver is responsible for the smooth flow of Qi throughout the body, a stagnation of the Liver further contributes to obstruction in the channels. Heat is generated from the constraint of Phlegm that is accumulating in the channels, and from stagnant Liver Qi that is unable to flow smoothly. As a consequence of the Liver Qi stagnation, the Blood will also stagnate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese hardened, fixed Phlegm accumulations are typically located in the region of the head or neck, due to Heat tending to rise upward in the body.
