The *Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Manifestations of All Diseases) states: Those who suffer from excessive sleepiness do so because their intestines and stomachs are large, and their skin is dry and rough. This causes the muscle layers and interstices to remain closed, leading to a sluggish circulation of Qi that lingers in the Yin aspect.

Take one eye from a male rat, burn it into powder, mix with fish grease, and apply to the outer eyelids; this will prevent sleep. Alternatively, remove both eyes, wrap them in dark red silk fabric, and wear them.
