Li Mei is a hard-working accountant who is busy with all kinds of complicated accounts every day.
However, the long hours of intense work often caused him to experience headaches. One day, Li Mei suddenly felt a severe headache while working overtime and was taken to a nearby hospital by a colleague.
At the hospital, Li Mei met Dr. Zhang, an experienced TCM physician. After careful questioning and examination, Dr. Zhang found that Li Mei's headache was caused by long-term mental stress and lack of sleep. So, Dr. Zhang prescribed a Chinese medicine prescription for Li Mei.
Regarding the bitter taste of traditional Chinese medicine, Li Mei is quite worried. He asked Dr. Zhang if he could add sugar to alleviate the bitterness. Dr Teo explained that while adding sugar can improve the taste, it may affect the efficacy of the drug.
He advised Li Mei to try to accept the taste of the herb itself, and told him some ways to adjust his mind, such as deep breathing and relaxation, to help him better accept the smell of the medicine.
Dr. Zhang also highlighted some important considerations during the treatment. He told Li Mei that the effectiveness of Chinese medicine is not only determined by the drug itself, but also related to the overall state of the patient.
Under Dr. Zhang's guidance, Li Mei gradually realized that the essence of Chinese medicine is to seek balance and harmony between body and mind. This is not only reflected in the treatment of diseases, but also in the adjustment of attitude towards life.
Dr. Zhang did not give Li Mei too much advice on life, but encouraged him to listen to his inner voice and understand his real needs.
Under Dr. Zhang's influence, Li Mei began to experiment with a variety of different activities, such as relaxing walking, reading and listening to music, rather than simply pursuing physical exercise or strict diet. He finds that these activities not only help him relax, but also enrich his life.
This change is also reflected in his work. Li Mei began to learn to find time to rest in his busy work, and no longer let work completely occupy his life.
By looking at health from a holistic perspective, we may be able to better understand the true meaning of TCM and find a lifestyle that suits us to enjoy a healthy and happy life.
