Prof WANG Jingqing points out that insomnia should be divided into deficiency and excess syndromes. The former mainly comprises deficiency of heart and spleen, blood deficiency of heart and liver, disharmony of heart and kidney, while the lat- ter mainly relates to phlegm-heat, stagnant fire and blood stasis. We should distinguish the deficiency and excess first of all duringthe course of treatment, and then adopt corresponding treatments. Prof WANG Jingqing emphasizes that clearing heart and nouris- hing heart and tranquilizing the mind should through out the whole process.
