Chinese Medicine for the Mind: A Science-Backed Guide to Improving Mental Health with Traditional Chinese Medicine-Includes 35+ Herbal Formulas for Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, and More

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) offers herbal remedies and mind-body practices for managing anxiety, panic, depression, insomnia, and other mental health conditions. Over two thousand years, TCM has used herbal medicine and other healing modalities to treat these issues. Nina Cheng, founder of The Eastern Philosophy, and a team of Chinese medicine practitioners and scholars present practical remedies and protocols supported by historical sources and modern clinical research. The book introduces TCM's approach to mental health, with chapters addressing anxiety, depression, insomnia, ADHD, brain fog, and trauma. Each chapter explains how Chinese medicine has historically approached these conditions, describes symptom patterns, and prescribes specific remedies for daily use. These include herbal formulas, self-massage and acupressure, qigong protocols, meditation and visualization exercises, Five Element Music Therapy, and food and tea therapy. Intended for those struggling with mental health or seeking to understand TCM's approach to healing the mind and body, the book presents a time-tested alternative for improving mental and emotional well-being.
