Liver Governs Coursing and Discharging
Version 1.0.0 · Updated 2026-07-30
CORE DEFINITION
The liver is responsible for regulating the flow of Qi throughout the body, keeping it unobstructed and free from stagnation. This involves emotions, digestion, blood circulation, reproduction, etc. Scaffold role: dispatch center. All the body's pipes (blood vessels, bile ducts, meridians, emotions) are controlled by the liver's valves. If the liver goes on strike (liver depression), there will be a city-wide traffic jam (Qi stagnation, dysmenorrhea, stomach bloating, depression).

Anchor fast decisions
In traditional Chinese medicine, the liver is metaphorically described as the 'dispatch center of Qi movement'. When liver coursing and discharging are normal, Qi, blood, body fluids, and emotions flow smoothly throughout the body; when it is abnormal (liver depression), Qi stagnation, blood stasis, emotional depression, digestive and menstrual disorders occur. The essence is the patency of the 'valve/pipe' system.
