Do you often suffer from canker sores, toothaches, dry mouth, acne, or constipation for no apparent reason? If you ask a Cantonese, they will certainly say something like “yeet hay” and recommend their great-grandmother’s secret herbal tea recipe for these problems. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), these symptoms are manifestations of Shanghuo or “Hot Qi”. So, what is it, how can you deal with it
What Is Hot Qi?
According to TCM theory, Shanghuo or Hot Qi is a result of the imbalance of yin and yang in the human body. It is roughly equivalent to localized inflammation in modern medicine. Generally, sensitivity to external pathogens or excessive physiological activities can lead to a syndrome of yang excess and yin deficiency, characterized by heat symptoms. Having too much spicy food, intense mental stimulation, and dysfunction of visceral organs can also lead to the accumulation of excess heat internally.
Symptoms of Hot Qi
Since Hot Qi is a very broad term that describes the situation of excessive yang energy and deficient yin energy, the symptoms are many and depend on which organ’s energy is imbalanced. Besides the ones mentioned at the beginning of this article, its symptoms also include:
- Swelling or painful throat
- Flushing
- Bleeding gums and nose
- Tinnitus
- Irritability
- Scanty dark urine
- Bad breath
- Dry eyes
- Restless sleep
- Dizziness
- Hair loss
How to Balance Excessive Yang Energy
The key to balancing is always a healthy lifestyle. Never try to rush it, or you will fail or even make the problems worse. Here are some suggestions for harmonizing excessive heat.
Adjusting diet: Avoiding spicy and greasy foods and alcohol that are prone to causing excess heat and increasing intake of fruits, vegetables, and easily digestible foods can help clear heat and detoxify the body.
Hydration: Drinking plenty of water helps to eliminate toxins from the body, maintain body fluid balance, and alleviate symptoms such as dry mouth.
Moderate exercise: Exercise is crucial for qi and blood regulation. Moderate exercise can promote blood circulation, accelerate metabolism, help eliminate toxins, and alleviate heat symptoms.
Emotional stability: Avoiding emotional excitement or excessive tension and maintaining a relaxed mood can help balance the body’s yin and yang. Try learning some meditation or breathing techniques to calm your mind when needed.
Adequate rest: Ensuring sufficient sleep allows the body enough time to rest and recover, helping boost the immune system to relieve inflammation and regulate the yin and yang.
Chinese herbal tea: Consider using some Chinese herbs with the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, nourishing yin, and reducing yang, such as chrysanthemum, honeysuckle, etc., but it is best to use them under the guidance of a doctor.
