The word “qi” in the phrase “all diseases are born in qi” refers to the reversal of qi. All kinds of bad emotions can cause different Qi rebellion. The liver likes to be regulated but not depressed, and it is advisable to keep the liver qi soft and relaxed, and to promote the characteristics of the wind.
