Week 11

Somnolence - Jing Shen - Alertness, consciousness, body/mind
Yang Qi
Yang Governs activity, Yin governs rest
If Yang is Xu, then there is going to be less activity - Weak Pusle,
Or If Yang is repressed - Confined Pulse
Its going to be combinations of both.
Yang Xu due to qi xu
Engenders damp, etc, giving excess

Yang functions to warm and nourish
1) Limbs
2) Spirit Light - Jing Shen
