The Five (Seven) Emotions

Home > Chinese Medicine abc > The Five (Seven) Emotions

Emotions mingle in the mind/body with countless other currents. They affect the flow and rhythm of our organism by influencing the qi. The qi directly affects the organs.

When emotions are intense, they change our body in profound ways. The emotions correspond to the organs and the five elements. For example,

Joy (or a lack of it) is associated with the Heart (fire)
sadness (over contemplation) the Spleen/Stomach (earth)
grief the Lungs (metal)
fear the Kidneys (water)
anger the Liver (wood)

Strong emotions pervert the qi to create disease. Fear or anger lead to constraint of qi, which results in depression, stagnation, and a multitude of physical ailments.
