LUNGS: Detachment & Courage Organ Time Strongest Activity = 3am - 5amWeakest Activity = 3pm - 5pm In TCM, the lung and colon have a polarized relationship and the interaction of both organs is to be found in the symptoms of many diseases. A cough thus corresponds to diarrhea, for example, or an irritable bowel could be described as “asthma of the colon.” LIVER: Transformation, Renewal & Change Organ Time Strongest Activity = 1am - 3amWeakest Activity = 1pm - 3pm Medicine sees the liver as the key metabolic organ. Food is dissolved by the digestive juices of the stomach, pancreas, gallbladder, and gut, and is then passed on to the liver for further processing. It creates new substances from the food we eat, supplying the needs of the body by making vitamins, proteins, cholesterol, sugar, minerals, and more. These are then dispatched into the body for use. If liver function is compromised, feelings of tiredness or lethargy occur at its main organ times: hyperfunction from 1am to 3am, hypofunction from 1pm to 3pm. These are also the best times for treating the liver or providing support for it. HEART: Joy and Pleasure Organ Time Strongest Activity = 11am - 1amWeakest Activity = 11pm - 1am In Chinese medicine the heart is viewed as the seat of the connection between body and mind, unlike in Western medicine where it is reduced solely to its physical performance; every day it pumps nearly 1,800 gallons (8,000 litres) of blood through the body as it contracts and relaxes around 70 times a minute or more. A few years ago neuroscientists discovered that the human heart has its own nervous system, one that is more complex than that of the brain.
