Acupunture and Emotions

Though it is expressed in "the Emperor's Internal Book" that emotions are related to the Meridians and we can use the related Meridians or even emotions to adjust "bad emotions"; it is seldom applied in the psychotherapy until the advent of Thought Field Therapy (TFT).

Upon a brief analysis on the acupunture points used in this method, I have found that most of them are the "beginning" or "end" points of the related Meridians.
But the following differences are found:

1. There are still no final agreement on the relationship between these emotions and the Meridians. Besides the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) seldom formulate the treatment according to these relationship. How the TFT found the relationship may be an interesting subject.

2. TFT is not yet totally successful. I have checked the "the Emperor's Internal Book" and found more insights on the treatment methods. I will post them later. Some of them may be too specialized and must at least have some basic TCM knowledge before one can grasp the meaning.

More to come.
