CORE DEFINITION

Jin, Ye, blood, sweat, urine, and essence all originate from the subtle substances of water and grain, and under specific conditions, they can transform into one another. 'Those who have lost blood should not sweat; those who have lost sweat should not lose blood.'

SCAFFOLDING EFFECT

psychology

Reduce cognitive load

Total quantity control. Body fluids are a convertible currency. If a patient has just had a major hemorrhage, sweating must absolutely not be induced (e.g., forced fever reduction), otherwise the last of the yin fluids will be depleted. Treatment must account for the total balance.

anchor

Anchor fast decisions

Different flows, same source means that phenomena/paths that appear different actually originate from the same root cause or driving force, emphasizing that fundamental resolution requires tracing back to the common upstream rather than patching each branch separately.
