疡者,人有颈边、胸前、掖下自然斑剥,点相连,色微白而圆,亦有乌色者,亦无痛
痒,谓之 疡风。此亦是风邪搏于皮肤,血气不和所生也。
疣目者,人手足边忽生如豆,或如结筋,或五个,或十个,相连肌里,粗强于肉,谓之
疣目。此亦是风邪搏于肌肉而变生也。
鼠乳者,身面忽生肉如鼠乳之状,谓之鼠乳。此亦是风邪搏于肌肉而变生也。
多忘者,心虚也。心主血脉而藏于神,若风邪乘于血气,使阴阳不和,时相并隔,乍虚
乍实,血气相乱,致心神虚损而多忘。

嗜眠者,由人有肠胃大,皮肤涩者,则令分肉不开解,其气行则于阴而迟留,其阳气不
精神明爽,错塞,故令嗜眠。其汤熨针石,别有正方,补养宣导,今附于后。
《养生方·导引法》云∶ 踞,交两手内屈脚中入,且两手急引之,愈久寐,精气
不明。交脚 踞。凡故言 踞,以两手从内屈脚中入,左手从右趺腕上入左足,随
孔下;右手从左足腕上入右足,随孔下;出抱两脚,急把两手极引二通。愈久寐,精
神不明。久行则不睡,长精明。
又云∶一手拓颏,向上极势;一手向后长舒急努,四方显手掌,一时俱极势四七。左右
换手皆然。拓颏手两向共头,欹侧转身二七。去臂膊风,眠睡。寻用,永吉日康。
Yangfeng (Ulcerative Wind), referring to naturally occurring patchy desquamation on the sides of the neck, chest, or axillae, with connected spots that are slightly white and round, or sometimes dark/black, without pain or itching. This condition is called Yangfeng. It arises from wind-pathogen clashing with the skin, causing disharmony of blood and qi.
Youmu (Wart-like Eye), referring to sudden growths on the edges of hands and feet resembling beans or tendon knots, numbering five or ten, connected within the muscle tissue, rougher and harder than surrounding flesh. This condition is called Youmu. It arises from wind-pathogen invading the muscles and undergoing transformation.
Shuru (Mouse Breast), referring to sudden growths on the body and face resembling the shape of a mouse's breast. This condition is called Shuru. It arises from wind-pathogen invading the muscles and undergoing transformation.
Duo Wang (Excessive Forgetfulness) results from Heart deficiency. The Heart governs the blood vessels and houses the Shen (Spirit). If wind-pathogen attacks the blood and qi, causing Yin-Yang disharmony, intermittent blockage, alternating deficiency and excess, and chaotic blood and qi, it leads to Heart-Shen deficiency and excessive forgetfulness.
The *Yangsheng Fang* (Prescriptions for Nourishing Life) states: Men should not sleep with their heads facing north, as this unsettles the Hun and Po (Soul and Corporeal Soul), leading to sorrow and forgetfulness.
Shi Mian (Hypersomnia) occurs in individuals with large intestines and stomachs and dry, rough skin. This causes the intermuscular spaces to remain closed, delaying the circulation of Wei Qi (Defensive Qi) into the Yin aspects. The Yang Qi fails to provide mental clarity and alertness due to chaotic obstruction, resulting in hypersomnia. Decoctions, moxibustion/heat therapy, acupuncture, and stone therapy have separate specific formulas; nourishing regimens and Daoyin (guiding and pulling) exercises are attached below.
The *Daoyin Fa* (Guiding and Pulling Methods) section of the *Yangsheng Fang* states: Squat, cross hands and bend legs inward between them, pulling tightly with both hands. The longer one holds this, the more prone to drowsiness and unclear essence/spirit one becomes. Cross-legged squatting. The term "Ju" (squatting) refers to inserting bent hands from the inside through the legs: left hand enters from above the right ankle over the left foot, following down through the gap; right hand enters from above the left ankle over the right foot, following down through the gap; then release, embrace both feet, and pull both hands apart to the extreme limit twice. The longer one holds this, the more prone to drowsiness and unclear spirit. Practicing this long-term prevents sleepiness and maintains clear spirit.
It also states: One hand supports the chin, pushing upward to the extreme; the other hand extends backward and pushes forcefully, palms facing four directions, reaching the extreme posture simultaneously, repeating seven times. Switch hands and repeat. The hand supporting the chin moves toward the head sides, repeating seven times; tilt head and turn torso, repeating fourteen times. This removes wind from the arms and improves sleep. Regular use ensures perpetual health and auspiciousness.
